Hi folks,

Long time reader, first time poster. The time has finally come to post these up; There are some fond memories here but am getting ready for a move overseas and I'm hoping these can find a home with someone who'll get some enjoyment from them again.

Total Distortion - never played (one of those well meaning relative presents)
Cinema 96 - never played (one of those well meaning relative presents)
Age of Empires - the original classic, very good condition.
Civ II - very good condition
Railroad Tycoon II - very good condition
Unreal Tournament - very good condition
Tomb Raider III - very good condition
Myst III Exile Special Edition - very good condition
Majesty - very good condition
Diablo II - very good condition
CC: A Bridge Too Far - very good condition
SimCity 3000 - don't think this was ever played
Future Cop LAPD - disc in good condition, box seen better days
Caesar III - very good condition
Myth II: Soulblighter - disc fine, box a bit tatty
CIV III Game of the Year Edition - very good condition
Black & White - very good condition
Heavy Metal FAKK II - very good condition
Flying Circus - very good condition (even down the the cotton wool the box is lined with!)
Falcon 4 - very good condition

To the best of my knowledge all manuals and everything else that would have been there when they were bought is still with them. Really not wanting much for any of them at all. Of course some of the titles are more unusual and/or newer than others and would expect a wee bit more but some of them I'll be quite happy with the price of postage. Offer away.

Kind regards,

Frenchie

Holy cow, that is a blast from the past. That takes me back to the days when I was po' and my main source of Mac games was playing the demos on the CDs that came with the AWESOME (but short-lived) Mac Action magazine. Back when I didn't mind getting 1-2 FPS playing PPC games on a Mac IIx with a SCSI-attached 1x CD-ROM because I just hadn't experienced any better.

When there's a multiplayer version, I'm going to be on Frost's team. Well, except he doesn't seem to actually need a team...I mean, what's the point? "Hey look, it's Frost and His Merry Gang of Useless Hangers-On!" Or something.

Indeed. Still have one which was awesome. Had Prime Target on it, an fps in which you controlled movement and view with only the keyboard, :blink: Civ II, (but only for a 100 turns or so - could just get to building a ship, but never find new lands) tis the reason I'm now hooked on Civ. A demo from the X-wing series which was superb, until you stumbled across the Star Destroyer and were mince and loads more I can't remember.

Or trying to play Myth II online and having to tell my opponent 'sorry, my sister wants to use the phone so I have to disconnect the internet' Ah 56k days. If you're wanting further back I have a stack of Archimes/Acorn 3.5" floppies, Original Cannon Fodder and Lemmings and Frontier Elite and the like when the epitomy of programming was teaching BBC computers how to tell 'Knock, Knock' jokes. There's a mint c64 boxed up downstairs and even a machine which plays original black and white Pong! :blink: Having said all this I can't believe how much my house sounds like a computer graveyard. :o

Looking at my sister playing Spore or me playing World in Conflict I can't believe how far we've come in the past 15 years. And in another 15, who knows?


Anyway, back on topic, Flying Circus reserved. :lol:
