Helm Buy the LEC games. Seriously. Indy FOA talkie is bliss. Can't go wrong with their classic period anyway. Be at least that decent to get their greatest games original. Mail them and ask for copies.

LacrimansTaurne http://www.the-underdogs.org/ has a lot of great stuff. There's no signing up or voting, just a lot of abandonware. The only catch is that you're limited to one download at a time.

Yeah, that would work if there were any. That's part of the problem.

James Yeah, I actually am playing the remake of KQ2 right now.

I tried downloading LSL2 from one of the other sites, but I couldn't figure out how to install it (the install setup kept exiting instead of setting up the game), and the downloads for KQ2 and 3 I got didn't have any installers, which I guess would mean I have to run them manually in DOS, which I don't know how to do.

James Why the fuck isn't this easy?

Emu Classic Trash has a few full version games.

Edit: Okay, for some reason it redirects you to "ping games" or whatever. I don't know how reliable that site is.
Mar 21st, 2004 09:39 PM
James All these sites I'm going through don't have the games for download, or they just have demos. WTF.

If it's abandonware, doesn't that mean the full game should be available for download, and there is no excuse to not have it for me to download?

Drev I KNOW it's awful, but the thing is, I wanna play all the Maga Man games, even the 2 shitty ones.
Mar 19th, 2004 06:06 PM
Perndog You don't want to play Mega Man for the PC. Seriously. The fact that it doesn't work is a hint from the video game gods. The game is awful.
Mar 19th, 2004 01:49 PM
Drev Didn't work
Mar 19th, 2004 11:03 AM
AChimp subst z: <directory>

It's DOS, fo'shizzle. If you want to play the games, learn the controls.
Mar 19th, 2004 09:36 AM
Helm Okay I can't help you if you're gonna be stupid. Read the documentation. You can bind a directory in your hard drive to the virtual drive Z:
Mar 19th, 2004 12:21 AM
Drev Ok, i got DosBox, and for some weird reason, it's set to Z yet I don't have a drive named Z

How do I change it?
Mar 19th, 2004 12:16 AM
Drev Mega Man
Mar 19th, 2004 12:05 AM
Helm DosBox. Google it. Then there's VDM or somesort sound card emulator that can work for most simple old games. Tell you what, since I have had some experience with running old games on XP, tell me which game you are trying to emulate and I'll tell you what combination of utility and settings to use to run it. Not that it will work for sure, but at least you'll be having someone helping you.
Mar 18th, 2004 11:25 PM
Drev I don't wanna play for it

Any others, or is there a good computer emulator I can use?

I wanna play this

executioneer download a slow-down utility of some sort :/ I don't relaly know what's out there that works anymore, as MoSlo crashes on 1 ghz+ machines now

Drev Ok, here's another question.

I downloaded the old Mega Man PC game, and the question is: How the hell do I slow this game down? The instant I start the game, a robot cat comes up and kills me because it's running so fast it's virtually unplayable right now.

What should I do?
