Speaking of Eco Quest 2...

... I just purchased Eco Quest: The Search for Cetus in original box in fine condition. It has the original 5.25 floppies and the Adam's Eco News pamphlet/sheet. Of course I already have the CD edition, but for the sake of a collector's passion I now have this box set.

$9.95 at my local Gametraders.

Why are there no gametrader like stores in San Diego with PC games...!

I'm astonished. I payed circa eight time more than this to have my copy...

*Australia? Uhm...*

Finally, the King's Quest Collection anniversary box, also including Laura Bow and Mixed-Up Mother Goose Deluxe:

[Collector]

You know, I have DOSBox installers for this collection. Also, MGDX is really fussy under XP/Vista. My installer addresses this.

[Almirena]

I have that already... Such a nice feeling to have beaten you to the punch, Rudy! <wicked grin>

I have just received some parcels from the US, courtesy of one of the nicest, kindest, most intelligent, generous people online. Included was the box set of

... Lost in Time.

Many thanks, Collector! That was unexpected but fantastic to see.

[Collector]

I didn't know if you already had it or not, but it was an extra. I know that the box is a little worse for wear, but the disc is in good shape. Be sure to use ScummVM for this gem. I'll post more in the Coktel Visions forum.

[Almirena]

I didn't have it, so my happiness level was high.

Honestly... I'm thinking of selling Codename: Iceman. I hate the game and it's just collecting dust on the shelf. If someone wanted it, all I'd ask in return is a small fee. Most likely enough to cover shipping.

I figure I'd offer it here first, before I go to eBay. If anyone here does want it, they'll have to wait maybe a month or two. I'll need to pick it up at my dad's place (where my Sierra titles are kept at the moment), but no longer than that.

I'm sure there are some other games I'd be willing to part with, too. I just can't think of them at the moment.

Oh darn... Say it ain't so

Ok, i'm over it Now... what's next? Ah, yes. DPX, if the Codename Iceman is in original box and comes with 3.25" floppies and documentation, i'd be most interested in it .

As far as I know, everything is there and the original box should be in perfect condition, too. I'd need to check, though.

2 recent releases:

- Timeshift (now i just need a better videocard)


- Hulk Ultimate Destruction (oh... and an XBOX console would be handy too)


I bet Almirena and collector do not have these yet .
What do you mean, "those are not Sierra games"?! It's got the logo printed on it!

[Tawmis]

Actually let me know how the Hulk game is... Looks like a no brainer kind of fun smash'em up game... and sometimes after a dreadful day at work - that's exactly what I am looking for.

[Rudy]

I'll let you know once i have an XBOX

[Tawmis]

Oh. In that case I may just rent it.
