Post subject: I Found Dig-Doug the original, full-version |
|
|
I was tinkering with one my my old computers (dos laptop, early 80s, 4'x3', 10 pounds), and I came acrossed some old games. REALLY OLD GAMES. And there it was Dig-Doug, Frogger, Test Drive 1... (all full-version)
But the only problem is- I can only get them onto 7" floppies.  |

7"? Weren't they only 5 1/4"?
---I have a 5 1/4" drive... do you think it'd be possible to hook one up to a modern or even 1995 p1 155mhz computer?

| There were indeed disks larger than 5 1/4". I don't know the measurement, but they were big. |

About the size of an adult hand, fingers spread out...
The darn thing is so old... trying.
Isn't Dig-Dug one of the most sought dos game out there? or what is? |

| Wasn't Dig Dug an Atari or arcade game as well? I'm certain it's not DOS specific. |

Dig Dug was on Dos as most of the classics were. Personally, I prefer Digger |
