All great pickups! How big is your SSI collection now? You must be up there.

Also, Terminal Velocity is a great game, I remember that from when I first got my S3 ViRGE.

Terminal Velocity was bundeled with the S3 Virge 3D....

Picked up Wizardry 8 at GOG on sale for $1.99! This was the last RPG I played to completion, back in 2002. I remember it being VERY long and VERY entertaining. 😀

Never played either Thief or the original Unreal, so looking forward to these.
They should fly along on my Athlon 1200.

Elite, well it's Elite. This version is filled MCGA with Adlib/Roland sound. Right on Commander!

This is an interesting one, some kind of early adventure creator. The case seems to be the same as a 7" vinyl.
Picked it up to go alongside my copy of the 3D Construction Kit.

Really nice! Great condition. I wish I could go back in time and *not* throw out so many of my old boxes and games. 🙁

Niice, recently bought that version of Unreal as well! But passed up the chance to buy Thief, just out of my budget, but from memory it's pretty thrilling to play. Enjoy! 😁

Just bought this Battle Chess set off eBay.

Anyone familiar with this specific version? It has the EGA & VGA versions of the game on 3.5" & CD-ROM, and a voucher for 5.25" disks. The sticker (red, while most I found had green) does list the included 3.5" disks and 5.25" offer, but no mention of the CD.

Curious if the CD originally belonged to this set, or if it is a later inclusion:

yeah, I doubt it was originally from that package.

You must have the CD from the Enhanced version in your original box.

That's what I figured at first as well, but the disc contains only the original VGA & EGA Battle Chess (and is dated 1990, pre-enhanced version). Strangely enough Future Wars is on there as well, could be a demo, but looks like the full version.

Possibly an OEM disc? Or maybe something only available directly via Interplay? Doesn't look like your typical shovelware disc anyway.

Added an AD&D Collector's Edition boxed set for C64 to the collection recently. No 956 of 3000.

Contains the first two Forgotten Realms gold box games, Hillsfar, and three Dragonlance games. This one is very much complete. Haven't managed to find one with an undamaged/uncreased outer box yet, though.

Joins the PC and Amiga versions in my collection 😁 the Amiga one is quite different (5 games v 6 games, certificate mentions the Amiga, and it's numbered /5000)
