Justin Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Funny that the Activision Anthology cover art shows an official Atari cartridge with Atari-style label, rather than an Activision cartridge.

LeeJ07 Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I went to Goodwill. No pictures yet, but I got some great PC games. Myst, Betrayal in Antara, and something called Catechumen. I'll post pics when I can. Quote "I'd buy that for a dollar!" -Smash T.V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeJ07 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) The full list of games I acquired are as follows. Myst, Age of Empires II: The Conquerors Expansion, Catechumen, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire 2nd Edition, Betrayal in Antara, and Gus Goes to the Kooky Carnival. Unfortunately I cannot get Myst or Betrayal in Angara to run on my PC. Edited January 14, 2016 by LeeJ07 Atari 5200 Guy 1 Quote "I'd buy that for a dollar!" -Smash T.V.

RadioPoultry Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) Myst is a Windows 3.1 program, so if you really want to play it on a newer PC, what you can do is install the MS-DOS emulator DOSBox, then in the emulator install Windows 3.1 (if you can get a copy), and then install and run Myst from that old version of Windows. Here's a thread on how to do it, if you're willing to go to that kind of trouble! http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=9405 As for Betrayal at Antara, this installer might work for you. (Supposed to work for XP/Vista, at least.) Anyways, I found this stuff yesterday at my local Goodwill: Really surprised by the MST3K DVD. I never see those anywhere!

RadioPoultry Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Thanks for the help with Betrayal in Antara, RP! How do I make it work, though? I don't have that game, unfortunately, so I can't actually go through the steps myself. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid A Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Found this sony trinitron 32" for $25. I had to have it. Too bad I don't have room for it currently so it went straight to storage. My pic is sideways! Oh well...
