It's asking for a CD key. I have none, since I downloaded. What do I do?

I had the same problem actually, thanks for finding an answer. :)

So, finally got around to buying New Vegas seeing as it's only £16 on Amazon thanks to Black Friday deals! :D

According to the Today's Deals section that game isn't benefiting from any Black Friday discount, just standard Amazon undercutting. ;)

Well it was £24.99 when I last looked, then Black Friday week started and it was £16!

It's also to be found in the "Video Games gift ideas" link. ;)

So, Poker Night is a fun distraction.

But, since it's lacking multiplayer, I'm guessing this one won't be a real long laster for me. Few days of significant play, then only every once in a while.

Well, I still haven't figured out how to play Poker so it's teaching me, slowly. . . .

Yeah, it's good fun, but it's really just a rather nifty time waster. Though frankly, having played Telltale's previous poker offering I wasn't expecting more and am not disappointed in the least.

Oi! Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light for PC just got online co-op and I'm in need of a co-op partner, yet I notice my friend list is extremely lacking in people owning this quite awesome game.

So... what do you fellows say about getting the game and fixing both those issues? :wink:

Huh, thought Poker was just one of those things everybody learns as a youth.

Texas Hold Em is fun (that's what they're playing), but Five Card Draw would have been nice as well. Oh well, still entertaining, especially since you can bully the AI a lot in betting. :D

:O

This appears to ooze as much style, and have more substance than Costume Quest.

Stop spamming GT5 to hide my SMB spam :) It's up for preorder on Steam now with a 1/3 discount. No downside to the Steam version (it was suspected you wouldn't get the gooball, but apparently, it'll be available via cheat codes) apart from it being the Steam version. By now, I finished the dark world, it's totally doable (20000 deaths). I probably won't go much further, I see one or two obstacles on the path to 100% already that would be very, very hard for my old, slow brain. And I suspected the odd groove I discovered one morning on my left index finger came from gripping the controller too hard for too long. Turned out it really was from the coffee mug, but I'm scared anyway.

Who teaches it to people in their youth? My mom taught me Squeal and all my friends and I played video games. :P

What can I say, Poker made for good entertainment at Scout Camp.
