Nah it's not the African one, it's the Werewolf one. And there's no reason to play any of them other than 2 anyway; QfG3+ is stupid easy with a proper character and the first one is quite different in tone.
Get your fill of sci-fi, science, and mockery of stupid ideas

Klingon Academy was also, unfortunately, a very buggy game even under Windows 98. As much as I loved it, if I were in charge of a company guaranteeing compatibility for re-released old games, I wouldn't want to be the one to release Klingon Academy.Bounty wrote:Licensed games are always tricky to reissue, so I wouldn't count on it.Enigma wrote:Would they have a XP\Vista compatible Klingon Academy?
I think the Quest for Glory games are supposed to all work pretty well with DOSBox.RogueIce wrote:If they have the Quest for Glory series (1 through V, including the VGA remake of 1) and the original Sam and Max game, I'll be impressed.
Otherwise, I'm largely meh.
Do you have FS2 and can you play the SCP? If so, go here and download the FSPort. IIRC, it has Silent Threat included. The team is also working on a complete revision of Silent Threat.Jade Falcon wrote:You don't know if they have Freespace Silent Threat or the old game Spycraft do you?
They don't have any adventure gamesMolyneux wrote:No Guybrush Threepwood (yet), but they have Fallout, Descent, and Freespace.
I think I'm gonna like it here.
The early Monkey Island games work on SCUMMvm. If you persist in not using it, and waiting for someone to charge you more for new hacked exes when a modern frontend exists, that's awesome.Molyneux wrote:No Guybrush Threepwood (yet), but they have Fallout, Descent, and Freespace.

Or are unaware of SCP installers.Stark wrote: If only there were people interested in this thread who weren't so dumb they think playing FS2 is 'better' than using the modern frontend, lol.
Here's the installer. I know I've posted the link multiple times in this forum.Stark wrote:Let's be fair; it's not like the site is organised or well-laid out. That said, it's pretty hard to have SCP problems if you're not using the new content... in which case it looks exactly like FS2. So... he's an idiot.
Hell, I've still got my original Fallout, FO2, Planescape and Arcanum big box CD's. FO2 and Planescape both work fine on Vista, which made me laugh when I emailed EA about a problem with BF2, and they stated it was an 'old game'. When you can get games that are about 10 years old running on the newest OS that's not bad.Stark wrote:If only there were people interested in this thread who weren't so dumb they think playing FS2 is 'better' than using the modern frontend, lol.
There was the occasional crash, but I've been playing it with the Killap mod.Stark wrote:Oh, really? Under XP I had that problem where the screen would go black until you moved the camera around - I don't remember if it was FO or FO2. I still have my old version too, but if it works fine under vista that's pretty awesome. Flash was RIGHT!

That'd be awesome. I'd love to have more people play Spycraft. Less with the handholding, more with the "oops, you made an incorrect assumption, back to square 1 for you!"Jade Falcon wrote:I'd really like them to have Spycraft, who remembers that game, that was pretty in depth for its time.
Adventure games though, it would be sweet if they had something like Sanitarium, Black Dahlia, or I Have no mouth and i must scream.
You're freaking me out. You're honestly asking if it's legal to play a game you already own in the privacy of your own home?Molyneux wrote:For not the first time: is it legal for me to do that?
...no, I don't own any of the Monkey Island games. I never have. That's why I was hoping that GOG would start offering them.Stark wrote:You're freaking me out.

Some of us were born too late to play games and to be able to walk around alone in 1992Stark wrote:Oh I see. Well I'm just a dumbass then; I figured everyone in the world had owned them. It is certainly NOT legal to use SCUMMvm to play Lucasarts games you don't own.![]()
It's kinda a shame actually; I'd almost buy them from someone like these guys and then use SCUMMvm anyway, just for the extra functionality.
