It is good. But I would change the font of "The Department of Death", and include a typewriter-like one; also, put the image of reaper Manny at the left and the one of the travel agent into the right (exchange them). I do not know if I made...  [Read More]

I haven't played the game in a while (I was just about to install it, and replay it), so if the advice fails, feel free to inform me about it. Hope it helps (and that you post here often)....  [Read More]

Welcome heiff. The GF Community over here is very small despite there being a new member every now and then, the regulars are not many. Playing GF is a great experience, and I can guarantee it will keep getting better. As for your problem, try to p...  [Read More]

Don't download Screensavers (unless we are talking about animated ones, which can't be made by an amateur), they take up too much space, and most of them have got Spyware or Trojans (personal experience; but I doubt a GF fan would include any of tho...  [Read More]

If it is a GF screensaver you are talking about, there are none on the internet. But it's really easy to make one; just get hold of a bunch of images from the game, and put them on a special folder. Then all you have to is right-click the screen and...  [Read More]

'Domino' = 'I dominate' Well, 'I Dominate' would be 'Yo Domino' (when 'Yo' translates as Ego or I). The word Domino alone simply translates as that easy and simple game; basically the same than in English. Of course, it might be plausible, after all...  [Read More]

And I can't actually buy anything in my village. I have to travel at least 100km for every game or order online. :P Oh, that explains it a bit. 100km? You go up to Helsinki (or any major city)? Is the situation really that bad in Argentina? Do you h...  [Read More]

My advice is, if you like the story, find the graphics or just feel attracted to it without a clear reason; go ahead and buy it, most game crtics are too hard to please, and those things are extremely relative. I think the game is worth it, Unless it...  [Read More]

Yay, I finally bought Full Throttle. And yes, BM is the one you turn into a roach. It's quite a dark game. I bought it when it was released (I was about 7 or 8), and the game disturbed me quite a lot. I must admit, I played a really small amount of...  [Read More]

Regarding Manny's questions to Meche: He isn't looking for an excuse, he's looking for a logical explanation. Yes, but that only became clear to me later on, the first time, as I said, was a tad strange (I have the Spanish version, and it varies a b...  [Read More]

Then we've got a disagreement in our hands. I have no actual proof, but something in Nick doesn't scream a Reaper to me. I always thought he was someone who had to walk. On the other hand, if he had been a Reaper, that opens a whole new world of poss...  [Read More]
