Re: My *Updated* Collection

I think it's the same as the Collection Series, just without SQ6 and the SQ7 trailer.

Essentially the same as the Collector's Edition.

Nice. Your collection is becoming respectable.

I was extremely happy with that copy of The Colonel's Bequest. It's in fantastic condition (and I think everything's included?), and I managed to talk the seller down to $15. Seemed like a good deal.

CB is an amazing game. It's SO very well done. All the things you can do (that aren't mandatory to finish the game) make it that much better. And the different "endings" if you will based on what clues you find makes it priceless. It's seriously one of the best games that Sierra put out. (Although LB2 to me isn't even close to the awesome that LB1 was!)

Nice LB1! Have you ever played it?

In LB1, it seems like the events fly by too fast before realizing that you've missed so many spied-on conversations. And when you've finished and reviewed your notebook, it looks sooooo empty! It's still a great game, but this is the main reason why I like LB2 more. It just seems that I was a bit more disconnected with the story with LB1. :-/

I think for myself the fact I did miss stuff first time around (many things!) gave me this replay value! Then I kept trying different things when I realized you could do different things to spy on different people at different times - and the game simply KEPT surprising me!

Everything does seem to be there with your CB. I noticed the notebook / pencil (this is what is usually missing on ebay auctions) I notice the map, manual / fingerprint, and the magnifying glass. Also all the diskettes are there, looks complete and all of this for only $15! Great buy!

Nothing special. An old Impressions game:

And the VGA floppy version, which allowed me to add support for it to the Red Baron installer, as well as an installer for the Mission Builder addon.

Just got these in.

As for the two Dr. Brain games, I normally wouldn't buy any that are just the cds (and manuals, in this case), but both were in a lot for $2.00, so I figured that I might as well.
