This'll do.

Been looking for this for absolutely ages. Before I even came to SR. Couldn't buy it anywhere, and still can't.

So, as you can't buy it in the shops, I'd have a good guess that you won't mind you giving you a link for the game?

Excellent.

Anyway. It's called Albion, and it's an RPG. I played the demo of it years ago, and it lasted me AGES. Loads of stuff to do, cool little developing plot line, just good fun if you like this sort of thing, game to come back to inbetween revision sort of thing. Or even if you're new to RPG's, and you're interested in what they could be like. This was the first I played, and I loved it. Cool arcady graphics too.

Excellent. Hope it's as good as I remembered.

Well I'll be giving Skies of Arcadia another go if it ever gets released on the GC or PS2.

I love FFX you see and the random battle thing doesn't annoy me at all in that (well, it does occassionally but I just equip a weapon that disables random battles and then it's all okay again).

None, it's pc. May have to get into DOS to run it properly, but doubt it.

I havn't got any of those programs that remember download progress no more, my computer wiped so everything's gone now. Gah.

Which is a good point actually, what emulator am I going to be needing to play this.

On Gamecube you say. That's me sorted then, I hope it's not too far away.

I'm downloading the game now but with a 56K and a basic BT connection which disconnect whenever it feels the need I'm at just 10% with just over two and a half hours to go. This had better remember my download position unike a certain Venombyte's Netstorm download. :0)

Never know, might get some Gamecube emulators going at one point. :0)

Still though, only really acceptable doing something like this when you can't buy it anymore, when it's not being made.
