Re: King's Quest IV Remake?

There's another remake that is supposedly in the works:

Who knows what will happen, but it looks promising.

Kings Quest IV Remake?

I was wondering if anyone knows if Kings Quest IV is still being remade by someone? As I recall, Magic Mirror Games was supposed to be working on the remake, but there has been very little evidence to suggest that it's even made it past the beginning stages. (They won't even post on their forum anym...

Updated Sierra/Lucas Arts Icon Packs

I thought I would upload links for my old collection of Icons that I have made over the last few years which include my favourite Sierra and Lucas Arts Games. Unfortunately this is not a complete set, so you won't find Icons for Leisure Suit Larry, Manhunter, or a few other classics. There are also ...

Re: First Novel Available For Download

Unfortunately I found a few spelling mistakes, so I uploaded a new copy of the manuscript.

Message me if you found any others and I would be happy to fix them!

If you have already started reading the book and are interested in finishing it, I would recomment downloading the new copy.

Thanks!

Re: Clickable Versions of Classic Games/Remakes

I guess what I am thinking might not be possible since it would involve changing a copywritten game. (Making SQ1 install ready)

I would love to see a better way to set up and install Monkey Island 3 and 4, but I suppose it can't happen unless Lucas Arts Re-releases them.

Dosbox for Windows 64Bit

This may be a stupid question, but does anyone know if Dosbox will work with Windows 7 64Bit OS?

I saw that Dosbox is for Win32 ... and I was hoping to upgrade to Windows 64Bit.

Will there be a difference when using Dosbox if I upgrade?

Clickable Versions of Classic Games/Remakes

I was wondering if anyone knows of an easy way to create a clickable/installable version of classic games using Dosbox. (Or a program that is similar) I would primarily like to see install ready versions of some of the classic remakes like Space Quest 1 and Police Quest 1, but this also goes for unr...

Re: I need help developing a story.

Seems like a cool idea, but have you thought of the idea of a bracelet or some kind of electronic device rather than a badge?

Just a thought, but other than that it sounds like that could be a fun game to play!

Hi People. I'm not sure why, but I thought I would share my first novel with you folks. I wrote this book a few years ago, and had it published at a small company in Ontario Canada. At the moment I am finishing the work on my third book, and might release my second book once It's published. To give ...

It would be great to see more fans taking action, but I am thankful for all of the work that AGDI and Infamous Adventures have done! I would love to help create another remake for one of the classics, but unfortunately I have absolutely no talent when it comes to Game Design. It would be nice to see...

Space Quest 1 Remake?

I was wondering if AGI has put any serious thought into doing a remake for Space Quest 1, kind of in the same vain as you did with Kings Quest 1 VGA. With the release of the Kings Quest, Space Quest and Police Quest packages from Activision last year I would love to see a 'Clickable' version of Spac...

Re: 1:1 Remakes

This was one that I was disappointed with as well. I loved the door in the original and thought it was a mistake to change. I would agree with the majority and say that remakes should add to the original (but not so much that the game doesn't have the same feel/story to it). I love knowing I am pla...

Re: 1:1 Remakes

I think the fact that you can take a walkthrough from the original and still be able to use it on the new version would make it as close to what is a 1:1 remake. I'm certainly not opposed to side quests, as long as the original game is still there. I suppose I just miss seeing some of the memorable ...

Alright, I'm officially stuck right before the ending and it is driving me crazy!
