Or we could in another direction with this.... "Who is Number One?" "You are Number Six." "I am not a number. I am a free man!" NOT A PRISONER! I'M A FREE MAN! AND MY BLOOD IS MY OWN NOW!!!!!! BETTER SCRATCH ME... FROM YOUR BLACK BOOK! 'CAUSE I'LL RUN RINGS AROUND YOU!

A: Not to be rude, but in the off topic forum (where this is sure to be moved shortly) we went over this just recently, I mean like literally a couple of days ago. Again not be rude, personally I hate when people jump up new posters asses because they haven't figured out their way around, just letti...

I was 17 when Puzzle of Flesh dropped, and I really liked it then mainly because I hadn't really been exposed to as much of that sort of psycological horror, but I don't it's held up very well at least for me. Now days I find having to role play finding my damned wallet so I can get to work on time ...

I just suck at ScummVM because I haven't used it as much... I'm learning.

edit: Actually, I get it now! Thanks Music! You have helped me become less stupid.

I can't get ScummVM to work right, mainly because I currently have no way of even installing most of the era of LucasArts in a from that ScummVM can work with outside of virtualized Windows 98, but running in virtualized Windows 98 has created it's own crop of problems. I've got a few ideas yet to t...

What I'm doing right now: Overview: Playing through the entire Kings Quest Collection. Have aquired every LucasArts Scumm and GrimE Adventure Game made, this is going to take a while. Expanding my Adventure Game Collection. Pending release of QFG2VGA will probably slow me down ;) Next aqusitions wil...

Somebody really ought to point out that the whole point of the cliché is that apples and oranges are too dissimiler to make a meaningful comparison thus, objectively speaking, the poll is unanswerable. Non-objectively speaking, I'm not even sure it's possible to have a strong opinion one way or the...

HALF A CHEER FOR BRITNEY! HIP HIP... HOO!

One final note: Just about everything here is available elseware on the internet, and nearly all of it is my re-hashing and/or building upon someone else's work. The reason I thought it should go here, is because with the excellent work AGD has done this has become one of the most active communities...

The Retro-Gamers Best Friends: These are things everyone interested in playing old games on a new computer hould have. Many are free, some aren't but don't cost too much and will make you life much happier: Dosbox (This one's a no brainer! Be sure to keep up with new verisons): http://www.dosbox.com...

This list thus far (games played start to finish with no game stopping issues, if anyone adds to the thread, I'll add them here. I've got MANY more games than this that I've got working right now, but I won't post them until I can play 100% through with no game-stopping issues): Sierra: King Quest V...

My purpose is creating this thread is to document my attempts in running old adventure games in Vista 64, in order to explore what tricks work for what game. If anyone has any tricks of there own, or if anyone has anything they'd like me or someone else here to figure out, please share. Hopefully we...

You took you computer into the bathtub to ride out a tornado? That's dedication.

Running a real OS on top of an emulated one running in another real one? Who would have ever thought of that? Well apparently someone did :D Well it actually works because Windows 3.1 is NOT a real OS, it's DOS application that functions like an OS. So it makes sense if you think about it. Yeah, so...

Well it actually works because Windows 3.1 is NOT a real OS, it's DOS application that functions like an OS. So it makes sense if you think about it.

There are reasons to have a 64bit system, but most of them are very technical and don't apply to the average user. That said, from what I've seen I don't have any of the problems on my 64bit system that everyone I know running 32bit Vista is always complaining about, but that's as likely do to me be...

Frankly though, as far as absolutely stupid puzzle solutions goes... nothing beats shoving one alien up another alien's butt to make a a key in Phantasmagoria II... that game really shouldn't have blown it's nudity wad in the first chapter, because it sure as hell didn't have much else going for it...

And before anyone asks... if you need instructions on how to set up Windows 3.1 with SVGA graphics and Sound Support in Dosbox go here:

...your welcome.

Ok... I got a fix for you... ...and it's a doozy. Ok, bottum line is to fix this problem you need to run the the Win2K patch, and to do that you need to upgrade to version 1.2 This is tricky because the 1.2 patch .exe won't run in Vista. Here's how I got around it: I installed Windows 3.1 in Dosbox ...

I found police quest 2 to be quite hard. And Gabriel Knight 3 was damn near impossible for me and stupid to boot. GK3 just had some stupid puzzle solutions... I.E. cover the hole in the garage with tape, then chase a cat through it to make a fake moustache in order to disguise yourself as someone w...

Really? I assume you mean the climax as opposed to the ending... I.E. the fight with the Dragon, which is assuredly bad ass. I'm talking about the ceramony at the VERY end... which should be this huge awesome, awards ceramony at the end of Star Wars moment... but instead is basically a throw-away.

It might... depends on what direction you play it in, that possibility is what knocks her to the bottum of the list.

I'm going to have to go with Paladin for one reason: QFGIV is not only my favorite of the series, but my favorite video game of all time (as I've explained in another thread). As far as I'm concerned because only the paladin can delve into resolve Piotyr's back story, any other class ends up missing...

Good Call

Now... when you say Demonlord... do you mean the Demon Wizard, or Avoozl? At any rate Avoozl is clearly the most evil being in the series, as far as villans you actually face directly... I'm gonna have to go with The Dragon of Doom, followed by Ad Avis, followed by The Demon Wizard, followed by Brun...
