I took Mafia II because it's a fun sandbox.

That was way to much effort for a game I'm never going to play.

Effort?

Each new page on the site took about 20 seconds to load for me.

Oh yeah I heard it's pretty jammed now. Guess the host didn't prepare for such traffic.

yeah I found out about this day one but couldn't get a single vote in (Reddit hug). Supposedly I'm in line for a code now but we'll see. I'm doing it for Mafia II but I could care less.

Civ V is pretty fun though in a weird way. If I didn't already own it I'd jump on this.

EDIT: I got mine.

So I went through all of it, registered yet another 2 accounts I'm never ever going to use, yet, it keeps saying on GMG that I didn't vote yet. Do I really have to wait 24 hours?

I got mine in less than an hour.

I had to wait a day, it initially said I hadn't voted, but just checked an hour ago and it worked

How exactly do you get the game?

Time well spent because now I know there's a Thief reboot coming up. \o/
Best stealth game ever made

Can't wait for the Thief reboot!

Have you tried to play The Dark Mod?

Standalone 2.0 version was released about two weeks ago. You should like it a lot if you played Thief 1/2, there is about 1500 of missions available for download and many of them are just great.

Official still down sometimes (due to massive overload), but it's also available via torrent.
