Ok I won't do that here, but can anyone direct me to a forum that doesn't have policies on this? or is that bad as well? Also, one more thing, it is this simple:   If a game is abandoned, and is no longer being sold by the company then it should automatically turn into freeware.  Just like you would...

Just because it is illegal doesn't make it wrong.  Things become illegal when others opinions get heard enough to make it a law.  My opinion is that it isn't wrong, because for 1) Sierra no longer sells the game anymore, and doesn't give me a chance to buy it from them.  2) Abandonware/roms allows p...

Thing is they aren't making a profit off this game anymore, and I'll be buying a game from a stranger I don't trust.  Isn't it illegal for them to sell the CD's? Isn't that called redistribution?  If they have right protections still on the game then aren't these people doing something they shouldn'...

I don't understand the rules, is it illegal or something?  The games are abandoned by the company itself.  When you goto Sierra site it's as if past Kings Quest games were never made or something.  So if they don't care why should we?  For a game that made them rich and famous they have little respe...

Ok, where can I find the cd version I'll gladly D/L it and I have 56k.  I agree that it is worth the money, but only if Sierra even cared about their past games and advanced the cd-roms and files so they can work on newer computers.  But they aren't sold in any store, and I don't really trust people...

Help working with KQ5

First of all, I read the rules and it seems that you don't want links to abandon games.  But the thing is I just downloaded KQ5 and KQ6 and neither of them has voice acting.  It just doesn't work, all I hear is bad quiality midi.  Does the intro with cedric have voice acting?  I dunno, I am just an ...

I don't know how anyone can conciously use IE, it is so full of security holes that it's ridiculous.  As soon as I accidently open IE I get about 5 popups, and about 20 new spyware in my computer.   Mozilla is just amazing, I never got a single pop-up since I have been using it, and the only spyware...

Wanna know why windows sucks?  Because Bill Gates is a greedy bastard, and can make his opperating system very powerful and stable, but he doesn't because he is a useless pile of flesh.

I would love a remake, because I d/led this and noticed it is buggy, plays slow and the graphics while they're ok, would be nice if they were improved, and NO ONE likes dead ends, its just a big waste of time.   My advice is to ask the agi team directly, they might give you some pointers who knows. ...
