[Rudy]

Finally another purchase. It's been a staggering 2 months

The Great Empires Collection, containing Caesar 3, Pharaoh and Cleopatra.

[Rudy]

And an old rerelease of Mission Asteroid and Wizard and the Princess.

Looks like i'm on a roll again...Torin's Passage. Already had it, but only as a Sierra Originals release.

[Tawmis]

Such an awesome game.

Another oldie: BC's Quest for Tires (1983)

[Jules]

It's showing as a little red x.

[Tawmis]

I see it fine...

Ironically, way back in the day, my friend Shawn and I pitched a game design idea called "B.C. Quest" - not to do with the comic strip. And rather than standing for "Before Christ" - it stood for "Before Civilization."

It was a mixture of King's Quest, Space Quest and Leisure Suit Larry type humor. We even dressed up in cavemen outfits and took silly pictures of us holding up a sheet with the Sierra logo on it that we had hand drawn. The main character was Duh Ugg (Doug).

I still have all the notes, promo box, and instructions in my possession.

I should post one of the promo photo things we did that we sent them... But I am not sure if I am willing to embarrass myself that much.

You already have. You have posted them before.

I have?!? I know I posted my LSL picture that got in InterAction... how crazy was I that I would have posted the caveman outfits?

Yeegads. Was I drinking?

Return to Krondor:

[Rudy]

2 days ago, i didn't make the Ultima: Drash auction, for obvious reasons. But then yesterday, i also did not win Softporn Adventure, despite a $220 bid (it went slightly over $300 during the last seconds).
When i lose such eBay auctions, i usually go on an eBay rampage, lol. First, as a warm-up, i bought the Return to Krondor this morning (see above), and then i went for the main dish . So, here they are so far:

Lords of Magic: Special Edition


Tribes 2


Aces of the Deep


SWAT 3


Cyber Gladiators


and Homeworld: Cataclysm

So uh, Rudy. *cough* What will happen to all your games when you turn old and gray and can't move a mouse anymore? Hmmm..?

Then i'll display them in "Rudy's Sierra Museum" and make a trip to Oakhurst with the entrance fees
