I re-bought Monkey Island 1 after first owning it on the Amiga, then came EGA, VGA and CD versions on PC. I also re-bought Monkey Island 2 on PC-CD after first owning it on the Amiga. Same goes for Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. I missed out on re-buying the Loom VGA CD version, though, so ...

Sam & Max, Full Throttle and The Dig were just rereleased in Australia for $9.95 Australian each. I have no idea if they come with ScummVM or DosBox. They come with their own interpreter, I believe, like the ones rereleased in the UK. Yes, it's likely they come with SCUMM v2.0, an updated Windo...

Unless the game engine that powers Lands of Lore is also used for point-and-click adventures, the chances of ScummVM ever supporting it seem extremely slim to me. And that doesn't even take into account the sheer amount of work involved in adding another game engine. I know the Spectalum project ai...

I have a vague memory of one of the original developers at Westwood mentioning, while we were discussing a possible source code release, that there was probably more difference in the engines between Kyra 2 and 3 than between 1 and 2.

He mentioned at one point that the new game was going to be called "Goblïnoids" which, given the naming scheme of the series, I took as meaning that one of the presumed two goblins in the game would be two-headed. Could have made for some fun jokes, I guess. I'm glad though that he's retur...

How about VirtualBox? You'd still need a Win9x license and install disc to run on it, but as opposed to Virtual PC it's free and (somewhat) open source and runs on Mac OS X as well as Linux and Windows. MS' Virtual PC is now free for Windows but not for Mac, if I remember correctly.

The Amiga soundtracks (at least on the lucasarts-games) are candy to the ear, but why Amiga when you can MT-32? Or even better: http://www.jameswoodcock.co.uk/?page_id=54 That last option seems nice, but I was "born and raised" on the Amiga and as far as LucasArts soundtracks go I always ...

If I understand it correctly, it's two separate negotiations: One with those who own the rights to the game, and one with those two may still have a copy of the source code. That seems to be the case, I think the agreement with Pratchett is along the lines of this: once ScummVM supports Discworld (...

No problem.

In the "mix and match" spirit, though, I'd be far more interested in whether it'd be possible to integrate Amiga music (once supported) into a VGA version of the same SCUMM game.

I guess the only thing left needed is if someone could provide a good link to purchase this. I live in Michigan by the way in case that matters. A list of resellers is here . You should probably choose a reseller in the US if you can. Also, Bobbin makes many good points in his post. I'll just corre...

I own a GP2X and would not be without it. It's a great little system for anyone who grew up during the 8-bit era, and it doubles as a fairly good portable media player. If you prefer the games of the NES, SNES, Genesis (MegaDrive) or Master System over current games, the GP2X could be for you (do re...

Monkey4 (EMI), definitely not LucasArts finest.

I was looking at the Blue Angel platform mainly because a co-worker had found a few of them refurbished with a very good price from a trustworthy vendor. Someone mentioned that it used regular SD cards as opposed to the TyTN which uses micro-SD. Seeing as SD cards are cheaper and I already have a lo...

I'm currently looking into buying a Windows Mobile phone/PDA, and good support for ScummVM is a priority to me so I can help out with testing and have some fun on the go without having to bring two devices. I'm currently trying to decide between Qtek's 9090 (HTC Blue Angel platform) and 9100 (HTC Wi...
