Re: King's Quest II: Romancing the Stones v3.0 Released!

I haven't been around in months thanks to some technical issues, but I just wanted to drop in and give thanks again for all the hard work done by the AGDs and associates.

Re: LucasArts Renews Maniac Mansion IP

I thought it was something done after MM Deluxe, but I wasn't paying very close attention at the time either. Also, the LucasFan Games site has been down for a while now, some time between late September to early October 2005, according to the Internet Archive Wayback Machine (http://www.archive.org...

Re: LucasArts Renews Maniac Mansion IP

Then it may be my other theory that LucasFan's Zak McKraken sequel wasn't as well received as he had hoped, as the site went down not long after people started negatively reviewing the game (mainly for the ripped backgrounds?). I never got around to playing it before losing the installer, so I can't...

I thought they already did. At least that's what the LucasFan Games site implies to me. Then again, you can still find MM Deluxe if you search for it.

Re: Possible to have HP, SP, MP bars at the top?

Meh, I suppose they could make an MMO set in Gloriana, but it wouldn't be a Quest for Glory. No one has been able to properly do the Adventure genre in multiplayer either. Even with an extra two-year delay after the single player content was released before the mutliplayer finally went on-line, I st...

About stupid things on job applications, why do many have you fill in the date both at the top and next to where you sign on the back/last page? Why not just put it in the latter spot?

It is perfectly possible to beat the game without maximum skills, and Erpy already told you that you need to finish the game to get Debug Mode.

Sometimes save files get corrupted in this game, and loading the world map or videos will cause the game to crash. Rebooting and/or loading an earlier save may help the video problem. Can you still play the intro video?
