I grew up in the late 80's, early 90's where cartoons called the princess in Mario "Princess Toadstool" so it's weird to hear "Princess Peach". I liked Toadstool even though it doesn't sound attractive. Unless her full name is Peach Toadstool... Her flying skill was Nice in Super...

I just finished Jade empire. It was okay. I was disappointed how much less there was in it than expected. I liked the KOTOR games better. I started Morrowind but I didn't get too far. Does that even have a main story or is just  a bunch of mini-quests? I'm halfway through Final Fantasy XII and am en...

I was just wondering... A member on your team is named Daniel Stacey. Back in the late 90's the guy who made the Space Quest FAQ and The Sarien Encounter Novel (Troels Pliemert) said a Daniel Stacey was doing the novel for Space Quest 2. I'm just wondering, is he the same guy? I guess it wasn't comp...

Leisure Suit Larry 2. To me that was the least enjoyable game of the whole LSL series. The whole game is a go though the room about three times and you'll never see it again. If you forget something you need in another area there is no way you can go back and get it and you receive no hints that you...

oh ok, thought so but had to ask. Thanks.

Well the first thing I thought of when saw it split into 5 antwerps was "hey that's like QFG4 Antwerps... And no I never knew cause I always took it as a joke where you die cause fighting an antwerp with a sword looks ridiculous. If you pop the antwerp what happens if you trip the switch in the...

I saw this video on Google and I couldn't believe it. I've had Hero's Quest for 18 years and I never knew you could pop the antwerp. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1207315192722654510 I tried it afterwards and it works. the trick so you don't have to multiple times is before you go to the n...

honestly I the only problem I had with qfg3 was that it was fighter/paladin friendly. Which was fine if you were that class but the thief and magic user got a quite a bit less to do. It wasn't too bad for the magic user cause we had the making the staff and fighting the leopardman wizard (in my opin...

For example, some words have been spelled in British English instead of American English (ie. colour instead of color) I'd be more worried about a game having spelling errors plain out wrong rather than worrying what the word Flavour is. It's not that hard to figure it out. Usually the spellings ar...

Well I figured out that the arrest was ad avis' doing, I just wondered why Ferrari didn't do a thing to help you or warn you about your arrest. He just sit s there and gives you the cold shoulder. That's a thank you for stealing the black bird. But he was probably look out for number one I guess.

Well I thought I played the what if game  on everything in qfg2 but I didn't know your drink selection mattered.  I know it depended on your conversation skill. Now I gotta try it and see what happens when you order water. There seems to be alot of ways you can piss off ferrari. What cracks me up is...

That sounds right, but I just wonder why is shapier the main city? Once you restore rasier to normal condition it looks exactly like shapier, not smaller. I thought they were both the same size if it mattered. I forgot if an emir ranked lower than sultan. And now that I think about it, they do alway...

That's nice to know. Nice Christmas post. Glad you're getting closer to finishing this project. Hope it helps you guys further your careers. Merry Christmas!

My guess would be Katta history is pretty well tied to Shapier's history; it is their homeland, after all. Actually if I remember correctly from qfg2 the Katta's original homeland wasn't shapier but actually rasier. After Ad Avis took over they migrated to shapier to avoid persecution and were welc...

I just liked how the idea of the "Father" introduced a main antagonist to King Quest series and can sorta explain why bad karma keeps happening to Graham's Family. It seemed like a disorganized rabble of villains before him.  I enjoyed having Sludge Vohaul and Ad Avis as not threat in ever...

Every character could get 8 points for giving chase and running after him as well as a varying number of points for a class-specific action (throwing a knife as a Thief, casting a spell as a Wizard, knocking over the fruit as a Fighter/Paladin). I found this weird if you yourself were a thief. Stop...

As an aside, I wonder whatever happened to that Sam & Max game that was underway (check the second link in smvp's post.)  Anybody know anything about that? That particular one got canceled, so Steve Purcell took the rights over to Telltale and they made the ones that are out now. I've seen thos...

Well, that's why you use DOSBox with those games, so you don't have those problems, heh. If it wasn't for the waffle walker, you'd take five steps then die of starvation. Ah yes dosbox and there a couple of drivers that allow you to play the games smoothy. I know about them. I think they're link is...

yeah I know about the hunger thing. It was fine when I had a slower computer but I've played qfg3 on a fast processor for a game in 1991-92. You couldn't got more than five steps on the savanna map before the waffle pop up again. I do prefer the not dying from not eating but it got down right annoyi...

well you'd have to get john rhys davies. He was awesome as the narrator. Yeah I know he didn't enjoying doing qfg4 but since this is all hypothetical why not say that? I really liked Jennifer Hale too. She did an awesome job with Katrina. Maybe she could do Zayishah? I'm sure you could have someone ...

The same thing happened to Roger Wilco in Space Quest 6. He was brown haired in all the other games, but turned to blond in SQ 6 for some unexplained reason. Actually after Space Quest III they made Roger's hair blond in all the rest of the games including sq1vga. Why they did this I have no clue. ...

The more I keep reading about these bugs, the more I just want to play the original QFG2. I forgot how much stuff is in that game. Thanks for the progress info. And I remember in qfg3 force bolt was one of the spells if you had magic you could use on the battle screen. Yes it does cause damage. Seem...

I just meant I'd think you helped a friend out when they needed it then they'd pay you back if they could. It'd make sense to me after Abdulla gets wealthy off the rug he could show some gratitude to the people who kept him alive. I was teasing about mooching off shema and shameen in shapier. I just...

And I hope he's paying for it. He did freeload off them in QFG 1... Then again, he was pretty down about having to do that. Till next time stay cool  :smokin The pointless question I have if Abdulla was mooching off his friends in qfg1 and getting free food and drink, why do you need to buy him a d...

sweet. Thanks for detailed response. Should be interesting. If I remember the first version kq2vga said in the easter egg with the hero the game would be possible by 2003. Oh well, I'd rather play bugless completed game than a quickly made one...
