First pic was 35e shipped (local collector). The second was 10e from a flea market. 😎

That second batch is SWEET! Half-Life obviously, Tiberian Sun for sure, but ESPECIALLY SWAT 3! I love SWAT 3.

He got lucky, I'm still trying to get a well priced CiB copy of the original (not GOTY) Half-Life. 😜

For Mac. The big ones are Marathon and Warcraft: Orcs and Humans but A10 Attack and FA/18 are good, too. Pathways into Darkness not as good as Marathon, but can be entertaining. Was a little under $14 shipped.

Indiana Jones Fate Of Atlantis (CD version) and Terminal Velocity, a total of £15 overall.

Picture%2060_zpsvjqet6ry.jpg

the Indy box is a bit faded/discoloured, but not too bad given the age of the game (Ive seen newer games that look much worse). The only Lucasarts adventure games Im missing now are Maniac Mansion , Loom and DOTT (I have it in a compilation box, but still want the original box)

Terminal Velocity is also interesting, going to see if playing the S3D version of the game is any better than playing it in software on a P133 (its the last chance for the S3 to prove itself before it gets swapped out for a Matrox)

Nice pick-ups! I attempted to play Terminal Velocity on my P166 (+ Matrox Millennium) recently and concluded that my PIII was the way to go for max detail. Fun game and memorable music.

Life? Don't talk to me about life.

it is a pretty cool game, Im playing it with a Microsoft Sidewinder 3D Pro (which I bought for Mechwarrior2 , but has a very useful DOS compatibility mode), and the S3 version isnt too bad with a Virge DX (the one use I have for the card, Im not the greatest fan of its rather mediocre picture quality)

You ought to get yourself a Mac Action Sack, if you haven't already. Great and unique way to get your hands on some early Bungie games.

Heh, I just watched HighTreason's review of Terminal Velocity. I've never heard of it before today but it looks like a lot of fun.

Scored all of these for 2$ each from my local goodwill! However I had a 5$ off coupon which means I got these all for a total of 13$!!

Nice score! You have an awesome goodwill 😀 WC, A10 and F117A are among my favourites.

I picked up a few games for $10 - Flight Simulator 95 & Australian scenery, Hellbender, need for speed SE, Indy 500, Riven, Team Apache, Raymond Gold and Street Fighter II Turbo

Mainly bought it for NFS:SE, but I vaguely recall playing Hellbender, and Indy 500. No manual for Indy, does the CD version rely on it for protection as well?

Indy 500 in the box and a copy of hell bender! Nice!

It's just like anything else, sometimes you get lucky. I go there probably twice a week to check the game section which is really the only reason I find this cool stuff. 🤣

Today this is all I found, got it for 99 cents.

Just found these today! 99 cents each except for B&W 2 which was 2$.

Gotta say of all these I'm most excited to own American Mcgee's Alice. Such a cool game, been wanting a copy for a while now. 😁

I have this but can't get Warcraft sound to work properly. Title music and spoken intros are OK but there's no CD music or in-game sound. Is this a bugged release or is something wrong with my setup?

I don't know, I haven't broken the seal on the jewel case but here's Blizzard's patch information for the game.

I used to have that edition. Revision 31 IIRC. It has the built-in hint engine. I can't imagine how anyone managed to finish the game without it....
