   BFG is having a sale through Monday on specific titles but there are some fairly new ones available (mostly Hidden Object). They are all $2.99 each. The details are on the banner on their main page. You can also access the sale through PlayFirst.

   I left BFG because of the ridiculous number of HOG's they released, with hardly any though to other genres. I've still got game credits from before I lapsed my membership back in July 2009. I managed to find a couple worth getting last week, but still have tickets to spare. (Wish I could give them away). I bought Magnetic Adventures, a simple puzzle game that's really too easy and the latest Luxor 5th Passage which was very disappointing. They have regressed back to Luxor II, so have missed out all the extras like the upgradeable power ups and mini games and the story. Even the graphics look retro.

   Thanks Terri. I'll have to check the list of games I already have against this list. At $2.99 they don't have to be the best games to get my interest if I find them enjoyable and entertaining. And I do enjoy some of the HOGs.

   Warning Campy you may be lost to the world for the rest of the day. I downloaded so many demos and checked so many walkthroughs my head is spinning. I've bought 8 already (finished 2 punch cards) and am thinking about buying 6 more. One of the ones I wanted most isn't taking the code so I'm hoping they get it straightened out. Now the bad part is that I have to join the Game Club to get my 2 free games. Oh well 3 games for $6.99 is a pretty good deal.

   White you can give your tickets away. I have already. You just give a person your monthly coupon by copying and paste. I had no problems doing it that way either.

   Michelle, I don't think you have to join the game club or they don't ever send you the coupons. If you aren't a member at the time they send them out (early in the month), they don't send they to you even though you bought the games in the prior month. At least that is what happened to me once not too long ago.

   Terri, you are right. I have been busy checking games. I already bit the bullet on joining for the reason you stated. At least that allows you to get another one not on the list. Also, the coupons will be good for others that weren't included in this promotion.

   Apparently the sale is still on today (at least it is through PlayFirst). I was getting close to catching up on playing all the games I own and now this sale and really good free games from Gamehouse. I may never leave the house again.

   Yes, but if you are a member and you have a coupon code you can give it to someone who isn't and they can get a game. You can also give your monthly coupon to someone who isn't to get a game just by giving them your normal coupon code you would use to get a game.

   So if White has a few monthly coupon codes laying around he can give them away.

   I volunteer to take one or more off his hands.

   One of the games I wanted to buy wouldn't accept the code so I contacted Customer Service and they gave it to me for free.

    BFG is good that way. I've had some credits (well, a few years ago now when I was a member) tohugh usually because of my own fault. for example there was a space releated game that I purchased from them but only relaized that i already had the game from Gametop. It wasn't a game that i was that bothered about, so the end of game browser hijack didn't bother me, so contacted BFG and said i'd already purchased it recently from elsewhere. they gave me a free credit.

    As for giving them away. i'll check through their games list to see if there's anything i've missed. If not i'll put them up for a giveaway. Though it's more likely I'll spend them. Have been hankeing for some easy to play arcade games of late as I've been playing too many premium $50 games recently.

    anyone remember the arcade games called pachinko? I used to love playing them when i was a kid. trying to get the ball bearings in the cups at the bottom of the playing area. It's big buisness in Japan, with Pachinko parlours all over the big cities:

    you can get a game called Dachinko for about the same price as a BFG game. I bought it DRM free last week and love it.

    You can find a review and purchase link at Gamezebo
