Now all the way up to slot #6!  No idea how long that will hold.  With AI War it hit the #9 slot two times in its life, and then quickly vanished from that perch after 24 hours.  This is... different.  So no idea what to expect, really.

EDIT: Ninja'd! :)

If I had an extra $13.49, I'd buy another copy!  If for no other reason than to recommend it!

It's gotta feel good though...

GOOOOOOO ARCEN!.. hm, wait... anyone see where I left those cheerleaders?

(mumbles wandering off) I hope they didn't get out through the attic vent again... dammit, that tape should ...
... and then we'll have cake.

Disturbing images of bound and gagged cheerleaders aside, it does feel very good.  I'm still super wary after what happened to us with Tidalis, but so far so good.  I don't take anything for granted anymore in terms of what will happen in the future, but I'm incredibly grateful for what has already transpired thus far.

It turns out that haters on comment threads at RPS, youtube, and pirate sites don't run the world.  Who knew! :D

Looks like it bumped Serious Sam 3 BFE for the number 5 spot!  :D

None of those comments are worth reading, which is a pity for me to say considering how much time I spend on those sites. YouTube and RPS anyway...dunno anything about pirates

I wish I could buy you guys a celebratory drink. Instead I just bought an extra copy for my girlfriend. I don't know if I'll ever get her to play it, though. Not that she's anti-gaming, just that she's got almost as much of a ridiculous Steam backlog as I do.    :P

I'm already waiting to get the expansion.

No pressure.

Congratulations and hopefully AVWW continues to generate strong sales through the week!

Yeah, I am waiting for the moment they can tell us they can support the game and their jobs for 3 more years.

3 More Years! 3 MORE YEARS!  ;)

I was rather surprised by the amount of hate. Sure it's not an AAA graphic quality game, but I wouldn't say it's ugly. It's unique and I think I compare it to SNES era, and by those standards it's bloody awesome :D

Now let's see which friends deserve a copy... unfortunately this is not a game in which any of my friends are interested in (probably), but I will just force it upon them anyways :P
