      Yah, I was looking up some appropriate (and different) door games that I       might possibly use & I remembered a great one that I used to play in the 80's       called The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Great game based on the novels       of Douglas Adams.              So, I go out looking for this, thinking by now it's gotta be freeware by now       & there HAD to have been someone who ported it to dos.              WRONG!              This game, written by Infocom in 1984 supports only: Amiga, Amstrand CPC,       Apple II, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, Browser (ok, a new modification), Commodore       64, DOS, Mac, PC Booter, TI-99/4A, TRaSh-80, and TRaSh-80 CoCo.              So, seeing that the game is OLD to begin with and it only supports operating s       ystems that went out with prohibition, you'd think it'd be cheap or even       FREE....              WRONG!              They want $74 bucks for that damn thing! I think back in the 80's I paid       like $10 to register my copy so that I had something better than ZORK on my       system.              Ya, ya, ya...I'm old...I think I broke my hip...              But, SERIOUSLY, WTF?!?! I think someone's got a babel fish inserted into the       wrong oriface...              -Rassilon...               -Remember me to Gallifrey...                     ---        þ Synchronet þ The Citadel BBS        * Origin: Time Warp of the Future BBS - Home of League 10 (1:340/400)    |
