DOS Games Discussion

Abandonia fro t3h win.

what........... a system like that..... crappy....... wha.......

He's an idiot, I say........ I wouldn't even pay for a Revolution for that much, and I really like how the Revolution sounds....... heh

Oh! can I add you too, Mr. Dancing Jacko man? *shot*

XD Sorry to laugh Tombstone, but the doodad-less shinanigins is funny..... *coughs* Henyways, my favorite RPG..... Without a doubt, hands down, supreme victory, no flame of doubt in my mind, that RPG is PRIVATEER. [/color] It's not a true RPG, per se, it's an RPG that has the main core of the game d...

Apogee games, eh? Them're good oldies..... I had a few. [key word: HAD.] -Bio Menace [grand, grand game.... I loved it] -Gateworld, I guess, I had it so may as well list it -Math rescue [WHY I beat it 7 times is beyond me.....] -All the Commander Keens, C'ept for Dreams, which I got here at Dosgames...

What is an SSI game, exactly? I don't knwo if I have played any or not...

Ebay is good for a lot off things. Like a $1.15 River City Ransom cartridge for NES. ^_^ A quick look through on Ebay and you can find all sorts of old DOS games. Descent was pretty cheap, as was Privateer, Wing Commander, etc etc. Ebay is good if you actually have a method of paying online............

Triple posting ahoy.

You can't defeat Robo Red, he's simply invinceable. I've had a grand time messing around with him as a kid, but he can't be defeated, only bypassed. [trust me, I've tried to kill him. Apparently 400 shots doesn't even faze him.....]

I don't know, but if you're in windows ME, I'm surprised so many work for you. If that new game doesn't work, DOSbox should solve any problems that you may have. Maybe, I don't know for sure.

Is this, perchance, still about Beneath A Steel Sky? If so, keep it to that one thread, please.

And if www.gamefaqs.com has nothing to offer for help, then good luck otherwise.

Now THAT is a bump. Two year old topic, brought from the clutches of death. ANyways, I think here has a good number of games that you're looking for, if that search is still going..... Edit by admin: Sorry I had to edit the post, but for legal reasons linking to abandonware sites is not allowed as p...

That there sounds like Street Rod. The Pink Slip or money betting is there, the fixing up of your car, etc etc, it's the best I can get from your description.

The first one is here, Second in the series here.

Hope I could help, if those are indeed what you're looking for.

Im from newfoundland :devil: know where that is? OH! OH! *shakes hand in the air* I know! I'm from Alberta, south of Edmonton by about 80 km, methinks. Anyone know of where that is besides Julie? Oh, and in a mad attempt to get back on topic, I'm not new here, really [check the join date] but recen...

Interesting........ If I see the book around, I'll check it out. [shouldn't this go in the literature section, since it's basically plugging a book?]

www.gamefaqs.com may be of help to you, mysterious guest. heh. As for the Beneath A Steel Sky thing, CHANGE YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM!ANything, repeast, ANYTHING, is better than ME. I have ME at my school computer, and it sucks..... I don't even like Win XP that much, mainly because of the lack of DOS, ...

I do beleive it's GIGGITY GIGGITY not giggly. I should know, I have a recording of myself going "GIGGITY GIGGITY GIGGITY GIGGITY GOO" that's about... 80 seconds long.... >_> I get bored easy and I have a lot of spare time, okay?

I wouldn't mind posting a story I wrote up here. I plan to publish it one day, so I want as many people to read it and give me what they think about it so I know what to change to make it better and stuff. Problem is, it's 213,200 characters long. I don't think this forum could handle that much text...

Okay.... Before I state my problem, I'll say that I have Windows 98 SE that is an absolute dream for running most DOS games [Descent, anyone?] but for some things I still need DOSbox for. [Monkey Island, Jazz Jackrabbit, etc] And, well, I'm trying to run my all time favorite DOS game on this compute...

Another thing:
I have a very similar problem with command and conquer, the original demo version. Sound skips, but game plays fine. Help please?

I downloaded the descent demo, installed it, and whatnot, but the sound doesn't work. I'm in XP, and I can't get dosbox or vdm sound to work. note, the sound EFFECTS. I chose general midi for music and that works fine. In the setup screen, the only sound configuration that works is plain sound blast...
