It's finally on GOG for $5.99

I don't have any Sierra receipts, but I still have the receipt for F-15 Strike Eagle from MicroProse (which I guess is making a comeback ) from Radio Shack. One of the big ones they used that took almost a whole sheet of paper even if all you did was buy some batteries. $34.95 in December 1987. That...

Hmm. I know more about Gene Roddenberry's Trek than any of the others (don't know much about them). But from what I know about Original Trek, I thought the whole point was to comment on social issues in 1960s America (e.g. religion, sexism, racism, nationalism, global war etc.) through the medium o...

I also have this card from Manhunter 2. Manhunter: New York didn't have one. At least not in my box.

That is pretty awesome.

I kept all of my Sierra games on just one. Did you have a save disk for each game? Do they all have art?

I do remember learning about a proposed Manhunter 3 in the early 2000s. I think by that time it had already fallen through. There was a webpage for it, but a flash animation that was there had already been disabled when I learned of it. I wonder if it was an issue with getting the rights from Sierra...

I don't know if this helps, but I use GM whenever it's an option. Since Windows native MIDI isn't very good, I use VirtualMIDISynth with a sound font instead.

Sonny Bonds being replaced by the Manhunter. He's still investigating crime, but in a robe and doesn't say much.

Johnny Westland (Codename: Iceman) being replaced by Roger Wilco. Well, Roger was actually a captain at one point, so the submarine sequence should go easier. Right?

Hmmm. I'd be inclined to go with the Coles as well, but I'm not sure how you pick one over the other. How about Christy Marx? I really enjoyed the two Conquest games when I did my playthroughs a while ago. I'd need to think more about what it could be about. Maybe Beowulf since it fits into the lege...

I'd probably go with House Seven. I haven't played any of those.

On the other end of the spectrum, I wouldn't go to House Five. I didn't like Willy Beamish or Heart of China and I think KQ5 is the weakest of the KQ series.

I agree. ScummVM is good for people that are looking for a simple setup & aren't comfortable using DOSBox, but it comes with it's share of problems. I setup the Windows version of KQ6 through DOSBox, running it through Windows 3.1. That was NOT fun to set up lol. However, running it through DOSBox ...

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you feel better.

I've been watching an eagle cam in Hanover PA (https://hdontap.com/index.php/video/stream/bald-eagle-live-cam). A few years ago, it made the news after a big snow storm filled the nest to the point where only the eagle's head was visible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7k1lyO9K0w It just seemed so...

It is disappointing. :( Any idea why they made it like this? It sounds like they cut many, many corners. They could've outlined the game, or maybe used a beat sheet to write out a synopsis. (Outlines and Beat Sheets are two very helpful tools I use to plan out a story before I write it). Instead, i...

So I just finished Gold Rush 2 and… it’s not good. I mean really not good. For starters, it is incredibly short and easy. Steam says I clocked 3 hours and managed to complete it without any problems (and 3 hours is probably generous since I lingered and explored in a few places). The game is broken ...
