"Monkey Island double pack"

Well, I've decided to get rid of my White Label Monkey Island 1 & 2 double pack.

Anyone have this version, out of interest?

No don't have that but really want it can't be bothered to buy it from there.

I bought Simon the Sorcerer (never as good as Monkey Island 1 or 2) on the PC. Turns out the PC doesn't want to run it with any sound. Why do PC's have such a bad time playing old games fully/properly?

What's the "ScummVM" thing? Sounds like a solution almost :D

Yes it does.

That's the thing - these games are classics. It will be a sad day for me parting with all these games, but as times move on, I think I will as well.

Out with the old, and in with the new etc.

Will that ScummVM thing work with any Lucasarts title? I'd like to fire up Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis sometime.

Happy days with the old point and click adventures.

I've decided to sell all.

If anyone’s looking for any original adventure games, I’m selling mine:-

Discworld Noir, Toonstruck, Myst, Riven, Curse of Monkey Island, Sanitarium, Broken Sword, Broken Sword 2, Grim Fandango and Blade Runner.

Also other games - Baldur's Gate, Quake - the originals.

Quite separate from the whole Monkey Island thing...

With the bad feedback why did it take 4 months to reply to it?

eBay comment generally: Isn't it great when you see

1. "Great eBayer, pleasant transaction, best service ever!"

AND

2. "Never received payment, no communication, NPB filed! SCUM!"



...ahh, the flaws! ;)

Nice work

Btw, here's another version of that same game, but this one doesnt have a box I don't think.
