    Re: Best Games in Repos

    Thanks for mentioning rRootage! I installed the game and can't stop playing in IKA mode either!

    Works fine for me... THe developers aren't getting paid to do this, they do it in their free time. If you can't wait a day or two, to get free packages, then disable the repo.
