Picked this up from a local op shop a while ago...

Ultima 7 with hint book... seems complete except for the cloth map 🙁

Into the 386 it goes

8 floppies took a while to install. Thankfully none of the floppies were corrupt or damaged.
Funnily enough the installer complained that it couldn't read drive D (my CDROM) and wouldn't continue until I put a CD in there.

This game is of course, a total pig to get running. It doesn't work with EMM386, but without it I can't load anything in high memory... and the Sony CDROM drivers take up too much space in conventional memory to run the game.
I ended up just making a boot disk (I'm running DOS 5 so I can't use a boot config menu) and loading nothing but himem and smartdrv (which makes a HUGE difference to loading times).

Very cool game though, such an open and immersive world for a game that's 20 years old....

I didn't even know Ultima VII had a 5.25" release. Who the hell had a fast enough machine to play Ultima VII, but not a 3.5" drive?
Awesome purchase though man!

Well there's a Disk Exchange Form still in the box. I'll have to check the box and see if it mentions which disks are included.
And yeah it sort of chugs a little bit on the 386DX40. I wouldn't want to play it on anything much slower.

Diablo
The Sims Deluxe Edition (for the Mrs.)
Bleem! (I nearly shat a brick when i saw this, for a buck!)

An "Arcade Fever" 5 pack with 5 games:

And another I forgot to put in the photo, "The Mech Collection" which is Mechwarrior 4: Vengance, the Black Knight expansion, and MechCommander 2.

Found some sweet PC games today at the bookstore 😁
vdvjis.jpg

The copies of Riven, one of my favorite games, were $5 each. Both include the guides, and the one with the nicer box includes all the other inserts as well. Never had a full boxed copy until now, so clearly I had to jump on it.

Descent Freespace was $2, but the real gems are X-wing and Tie Fighter. These are absolutely mint! $7 each. I'm ecstatic 😁

Finally, Starcraft II was the reason I went out today. Been watching a lot of Day[9] and finally decided I need the game. Got it at Gamestop using a giftcard I got for christmas. Score!

PCs, Macs, old and new... too much stuff.
