Is it that easy?

Tut. And why is that?

It's amazing what some people rely on these days. As much as XP can cause a headache, it doesn't even come close to earlier versions such as ME. ME did not even recognise my Ethernet card! And it's not like I could connect for it to download some drivers. I eventually found the disc, which had been ...

Indeed. And I'm going to start saving this year for some big plans. Like hopefully moving out with my girlfriend!

It's sad. I don't think there is any mention of Zork on Activision's site now...

Groovy.

I shan't be playing HL2, my PC ain't good enough...

Nice to know us here get things before you Americans. Hehe.

I think older games are harder, and more challenging.

As an example for a latest (ish) game that got rave reviews, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. I completed that in 6 hours.

Even now I can't do the original game. Never could, I doubt I ever will...

Reise Reise? Is that not already out?

I swear I have that in my car...

Well that's good. I was getting a bit worried there!

Am I right in saying the new Myst game is now a 3D adventure? Rather than point n' click? Never having played Myst, I may well be wrong. Let's put it this way. Activision will not spend money on the Zork series. Not unless they can do a Doom Clone (I know, they're called FPSs now, not Doom Clones, b...

Yee-hah! One of my relatives decided they wanted a computer. Apparently, their 486 is no good for them any more. And after I convinced them they'd never sell it, it's coming to meeeeee! Forget trying to run RTZ on XP. Forget the my AMD Athlon is so fast that I can't solve a pixel perfect puzzle in N...

But it was spent inside an office. I would've loved to sit outside in the garden, with my girlfriend with a nice book. Or something. Or gone camping. Or even just a picnic. But once again, never happened. And, I've just started driving, and I love Country Lanes with the sun shining, the windows down...

It's depressing, this rain. I've worked all the summer (well, aside from my stint in Florida) and I don't feel like we've had one!

Sweltering in a office with no windows or A/C  or even a FAN is not my idea of Summer...

*grinz*

Good luck!
