Oberon Media

I would like to take the time to tell you about a company that deserves recognition.  For the past two years or so, I have been playing hidden picture and puzzle games on my computer.  It is a great way to keep my mind off of how my body is feeling, and to test my mind's capacity for problem solving.  The first game I ever purchased was called Zuma, and involved shooting colored balls into uniform, moving strings.  I paid $20 bucks for it after becoming addicted from the trial version that came with my computer.  When I downloaded the full version, a new desktop icon appeared on my screen that simply said "Best Buy Games Center."  Little did I know that this link would open up a whole new world of reasonably priced, well supported games.

After reading the fine print, I decided to join the club, sponsored by Best Buy but run by Oberon Media.  I pay a monthly fee of $6.95, and get to pick any game I want.  In addition, I can purchase any other games for the same, relatively cheap $6.95.  The best part about this program is the awesome support I have received from Oberon.  Once about six months ago, and again last night, I had issues getting a game to function.  They started out playing fine, then froze up several minutes in.  When I contacted customer support, they were not only helpful, but very patient and courteous as well.  I was leery about joining a club with only a email address in the contact information, but Oberon has proven to be top-of-the-line.

Here is the link to the Home Page for their site.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do:
