Maybe I'm completely wrong, but it would seem that Platinum is like CE on another site. And they NEVER come out together. But GH has released Premium and SE editions together here, and it begs the question (maybe someone from GH will answer it) of whether the Premium games are either GameHouse developed, like Mortimer, or GameHouse produced, and the Platinums may be produced by someone else? With different rules? GH, of course, can do with their own games as they please, but might not have that right with someone else's.

GH is doing their best to be competitive, I think, and are beginning to nose out the competition, IMHO. I'm not crazy about the ads here, but other than that, they are on the right track!

Great adventure game, but is anyone else having problems with the graphics? My characters appear solid black with only patches of image showing. Kind of like ninjas, LOL. And the dog is wireframe.

I would never call any pooch Bertha or Seymour. I shudder to think of a Rottweiler called Poopsie. A chihuahua with the moniker Goliath??? How about Spike, the toy poodle. How about a 6th, has anyone ever named their dog Kitty?

By the way Ydoi's restaurant list is outstanding!! And there is a genuine Pondscum Pub and we all know where it is.

I actually had a Rottweiler named Poogie. It was the puppyhood moniker, and it stuck. She was still Poogie 13 years later when she crossed the Rainbow Bridge, and a smarter, sweeter dog there never was nor will be again. I also have a mutt named Poopsie, LOL. She was mom's dog, and I inherited her when Mom passed.

Never had a dog named Kitty, but I did have a cat named "Puppy" because she followed me everywhere.

Big Fish is absolutely the best game portal out there. I joined over here when MB Time Paradox came out, and decided to give it a whirl. It's better than iWin, but not as good as BFG for customer service.

Paul Thelen (known on the forums as Picman), the head of BFG, comes often to the forum and chats with us. He is a warm and funny man, and we do appreciate how he tries to keep us all up to date with the progress of BFG produced games. He also posts some wicked teasers as riddles, LOL.

I've been fairly satisfied with GH for the games I can't get at BFG, but it seems that since the merger with RA, they have taken on all of RAs negative attributes. Just not happy with this current situation at all.

And yes, MCF Dire Grove is AWESOME!!! Definitely worth every penny!

Yuck. Demo'd for 6 minutes, and the best part was the opening cut scene. Liked the soundtrack, but not much else. The cursor is awkward at best, and the powerups hard to use. This reminds me of Squelchies, but not as fun.
