    Sometimes PCW9M- you just gotta 2GGKT take a walk -7PPQH- on the wild side C74RM- with a bunch of crazy KDY2Z irradiated folx and giant mutant
    crawdads! This game is intended for a non-Prime-subscribed gamer who would like to give it a try, and redeems on the MS Store. Please reply if you
    take it.

    I am amused by the general disdain everyone (myself included) seems to
    have for the Microsoft store. Both rms and I gave away the
    MS-encumbered "Fallout 76" keys. Zadhadka only grudgingly took the
    game from Amazon. Poor Microsoft can't seem to catch a break ;-)

    (I largely ignore them for the usual reasons: I don't want to have to
    monitor yet-another gaming account, and anyway, Microsoft already has
    too large an influence on my computing and gaming life, so why
    encourage them? Also, my early experiences with Microsoft's app store
    weren't favorable, and I've never been inclined to see if they have
    gotten any better. But I thought I was in the minority.)

    Actually that never entered my head! It's just a fairly major title that
    I know I'll never get to, heehee. Hopefully someone enjoys it! I have
    played games on the msstore, mostly via Gamepass (which is still a fantastic deal).
