Haven't seen any New World Computing stuff so far? Where are those Might & Magic games? SHOW ME! 😁

HOMMs and M&Ms on page 1 😉 Also have a Tunnels & Trolls which I haven't pictured.

My bad, I missed them.

Sorry for the dealy, i got busy.

086.EliteGold.jpg

Elite Gold Edition, bad condition box unfortunately. Looks like for the PC version they use the Amiga box and just slap a sticker over the 'Amiga' on the front which appears to have been torn off of this one.

087.Rithmetic.jpg

This is my oldest PC title, 1983, Race Car 'Rithmetic.

088.Half-Lifes.jpg

Some Half-Lifes, Half Life 2 Collector's Edition comes with a (XL) shirt.

From here on out I'll just take some random group pics of everything else I have.

More random games. I'm surprised to learn that I don't own any Duke Nukem games...

This is indeed an amazing collection of Big Boxes. Do you have a similarly-sized collection of releases in DVD keep cases / CD jewel cases? 😀

And some not-games too.

This is an awesome collection and was an entertaining survey. 👍 It's amazing to see all the cool extras that used to ship with the old Big Boxes.

If you find time, a kind reminder about my earlier request: 😉

Would it be possible for you to share high-resolution scans of the rear inserts of your StarCraft & Brood War jewel cases?

Yep, I haven't forgotten, just been busy. I did find my scanner in my garage, needs a clean then should be good to go.
