Finally another purchase. It's been a staggering 2 months :shock:

The Great Empires Collection, containing Caesar 3, Pharaoh and Cleopatra.

I see it fine...

Ironically, way back in the day, my friend Shawn and I pitched a game design idea called "B.C. Quest" - not to do with the comic strip. And rather than standing for "Before Christ" - it stood for "Before Civilization."

It was a mixture of King's Quest, Space Quest and Leisure Suit Larry type humor. We even dressed up in cavemen outfits and took silly pictures of us holding up a sheet with the Sierra logo on it that we had hand drawn. The main character was Duh Ugg (Doug).

I still have all the notes, promo box, and instructions in my possession.

I should post one of the promo photo things we did that we sent them... But I am not sure if I am willing to embarrass myself that much.

You already have. You have posted them before.

I have?!? I know I posted my LSL picture that got in InterAction... how crazy was I that I would have posted the caveman outfits?

Yeegads. Was I drinking?

2 days ago, i didn't make the Ultima: Drash auction, for obvious reasons. But then yesterday, i also did not win Softporn Adventure, despite a $220 bid (it went slightly over $300 during the last seconds).
When i lose such eBay auctions, i usually go on an eBay rampage, lol. First, as a warm-up, i bought the Return to Krondor this morning (see above), and then i went for the main dish :lol: . So, here they are so far:

Lords of Magic: Special Edition
Image

Tribes 2
Image

Aces of the Deep
Image

SWAT 3
Image

Cyber Gladiators
Image

and Homeworld: Cataclysm
