Would be way too many pictures. A lot of my stuff is still in boxes. This is probably the best I could do without having to take like 20 different pics: https://vgcollect.com/armani/pc/

Tyrian 2000 is absolute bullshit hard to find, I'm looking for that one too, and original Tyrian was only released in a big box overseas. You know what's funny is that I actually saw a US big box Tyrian 2000 in a lot with a bunch of other heavy hitter (e.g. usually expensive) big box PC games that …

I'm going to upgrade my 1050ti to a 3080 (along with my i5-7500 to a Ryzen, of course a motherboard + PSU upgrade, and replacing my modern gaming case with a "modern" sleeper case) just to play a couple newer games that I'm interested in. Most stuff put out nowadays is complete garbage, so it's a …

there's a lot of interesting Steam games now that there's little to no regulation on what a game dev or a "game dev" can release but relating to the main gist of this forum, there are interesting older games like Redline, Shogo, Blood II, etc. that Steam just has out to purchase, but you have to …

Gearhead Garage and NIRA Intense Import Drag Racing should be on this list for Windows 10 64-bit. I managed to get GHG working after finding a backroads workaround on GOG forums. It's a huge hassle though. I haven't even managed to get NIRA to work, but some people apparently have, and the folks …

I want to bump this thread almost a year later and finally say that I managed to get it working on Windows 10 thanks to a GOG user called "pkkilleru." This is an especially hard game and a weird outlier to get running, so I think this thread should be up for everyone to see who wants to play this …

I got it running by running an image of the ISO on a virtual drive with Daemon Tools Lite and then mounting the virtual drive in DOSBox and ran it through there.

According to Moby Burnout is a DOS game and NIRA is a Win only from '99. It is probably possible to get Burnout working in DOSBox. From '99 NIRA probably won't run in Win3x in DOSBox. I'm not familiar with the game so I am not sure what it might take to get it to run. Do you know what I could do to …
