Police Quest 2 Wallpaper

Just had to slightly resize and then copy and past the left and right lines to extend all the way.

So... very... 80's with that logo.

The first thing that springs to mind when I see the logo is "Why am I in CGA mode?"

That's also true!

Well, PQ2 was made in 1988. VGA only became standard in 1990, so EGA and CGA were still the norm.

But CGA is just 4 colors, which if you glance at PQ2's intro looks very 4 colors. Though it clearly has 16.

For example, Wizardry V in CGA!

Hmm - I googled Wizardry V and found images in CGA and EGA. What's all this about?

[Tawmis]

Same as Sierra. The installer allows for both. I played it in EGA, but I remember trying to play it in CGA a few years ago for fun.

(I love the Wizardry series; well from V onward... IV and previous are insanely difficult and just line art dungeons, which always disoriented me when I tried doing maps)
