I just don't see this kind of thing as a "find". If others do, fine, but would anyone really object to creating a new thread for showcasing impressive finds, the kind of thing that this thread used to specialize in but now only pops up from time to time?

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
what he said is the truth. this thread and the whole forum has evolved. and to expect any change not to happen in nearly 3 years since post one is crazy.
but enough of this arguing, let's read some finds! no matter how awesome or lame they are!!! i do like visuals though.

I do think it's time to add the option to the site to play videos too without having to watch them in a second page.
I surely would have added a little clip of Skullmonkeys to my post.
Just a thought...
