The New "Games I Bought" Thread -- Copied For Your Enjoyment

[A Black Falcon]

... Gah, I didn't want to get anything (ie to spend any more money), but I was in the Salvation Army store for the first time in a while, and WOAH. They'd recently agotten in a LOT of older PC games, including MANY great ones. All at $3 each. Unfortunately whoever sold them was ripping them off with a bunch of the boxed games, many of which were missing their discs (either the jewelcase was just gone, there was no disc in the case, one disc of the game's three was missing, etc), but even though that's disappointing, there were lots of jewelcase-only games too, all with their discs and everything. I got a bunch of those, and I think there are more I have to get... I may not want to spend this much money, but you get an opportunity like this you simply can't skip it. I'd regret it for so long if I did...

Anyway, for about $40 ($3 each), this is what I got. All PC games of course, and all jewelcase-only.

... Yeah, amazing stuff. And there are lots more I'm seriously considering going back for... but first this. They were going to just throw out the boxed games which were missing their CDs, so I asked for a couple of the boxes and they gave them to me. So, I also got these two for free, with no game discs included of course. They're both the old-style full-size PC game boxes. You know, the good kind. :)

MechWarrior 2 - original DOS version. Complete with all manuals, advertising paperwork, the jewelcase, etc... just the actual disc is missing. Awesome stuff even without it though!

Wizardry Gold - box with manual and warranty card. Wizardry Gold is an upgraded version of Wizardry 7. I have a disc-only version of Wizardry 7, so I thought this would be worth it anyway... and classic PC game manuals are usually important. This has a good thick manual. :)


Some of the (many) other games they had that I didn't get yet but am considering getting soon include...

Jewelcase only (that is the ones actually guaranteed to have discs in them): Duke Nukem 3D Plutonium Pack (the expansion; I have the original, but not this); EarthSiege; StarSiege; X-Car; HyperDrome; Fury3; Dragon's Lair (MPEG ed.); Temujin; MDK; Panzer Dragoon; Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six; Silent Thunder: A-10 Tank Killer 2; Beavis & Butthead in Virtual Stupidity (actually a quality adventure game from what I've heard of it, though I don't care about the show so it's probably not worth it); Close Combat: A Bridge Too Far; Cyberia; Harvester; Dark Reign; Star Wars: Force Commander; WarGames; and more...

For the boxed games, and yes these are complete, Prince of Qin (small box) and Space Bunnies Must Die (large box).

As for boxed games that I didn't have time to check for discs, there are some I']d like to do that for... MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries (small box), Painkiller (small box), a collection of 4 Star Trek games (New Worlds, Starfleet Academy, the Starfleet Academy addon (Chekov's Lost Missions), and Starfleet Command), and the Starfleet Command: Orion Pirates expansion (sealed and unopened, this should be complete!). Maybe also check the collection box with SimCity 2000, Streets of SimCity, and SimCopter, not sure about that one.
