I'm finding that it is very hard to find a standard edition game.
An example would be BFG list of the best games from the last week.
A list of ten games with nine being Corrector Editions.
It would be nice to see a list CE games that have been converted to SE games.

One thing you can do is to look at the list of Collector's Editions and know that every single one on the list has a standard version, unless the Collector's Edition has been released in the last four weeks. wave

If I am on BFG site I have the options of hidden object games, pc games, adventure games, top 100 games ets. I have never found a list of ce games that art older than one month. I wish they would add the date a game came out. Can you do a search just using the developers? We all have our favorites. ?

Here is the page that lists Collector's Editions; the list includes pretty much every CE that has been released since Dire Grove (which was the very first CE).

You can access this page from the PC home page - it's one of the options on the left-hand side, towards the bottom. It's under the Catch of the Week section.

The way I determine a release date is to go to the forum for any particular game and click on the reviews thread; the first post in the thread will have a date, and that would be the release date.

Once you click on PC Games tab you can type in the developer's name in the search box (upper right) and that will list all of their games. That's what I always do. smile

As many times as I've been on the site I never saw the collector's edition list. I have been wishing they would do one and so they have. This is so helpful. Thank you so much Marian! You are the bomb!


You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to.

Glad to help! Actually, that page has been there for as long as I can remember - but there's a lot to find and discover on the BF website. smile

The one earlier CE that is inexplicably missing from that page, from what I can see, is The Secret Order: Masked Intent. You can find it by doing a search, though. It looks like it's just an oversight in terms of the listings.

This is like striking GOLD. Thank you so much Marian and Smitty. This helps a lot and I will type it out and refer Bactria to it. I have a lot to learn when searching. For the or fifteen years I have bought all of my games from BFG.
Still have trouble aggravating their site. Smitty143 I think I have told you before that we seem to enjoy the same type of games. Thanks
