TheMadDoofer Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Is there any legal way to buy Sam and Max anymore, besides through the adventure volume (72$! AAA!)? I even looked on ebay - only Mac versions and PC version dealers who only sell to the UK! This is my first time here, please don't hurt me or get mad at me for supporting lucasarts adventure games.
Udvarnoky Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 It's available at the company store as part of the adventure collection, which is 30 bucks. If you don't have DOTT or FOA it's a great deal. And I've seen the U.S. PC version on eBay many times. I just checked and saw a few.
TheMadDoofer Posted June 22, 2004 Author Posted June 22, 2004 I don't have any of those! (New Adventure Fan) Thanks!
Udvarnoky Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Just to save you some time when you realize these games don't work on your computer. You'll most certainly need SCUMMVM to play these game on any relatively new system.
TheMadDoofer Posted June 24, 2004 Author Posted June 24, 2004 I have another computer running Windows 95. Will they work on it? It's old - 266 mhz.
AndrewL Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 yea it will. they used to work on my old computer, very much like that one.
Samnmax221 Posted June 25, 2004 Posted June 25, 2004 are you using this old computer presently? Because if you are thats got to be a bit of a pain.
toenail1 Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 you dont need scummvm for sam and amx play it the way its meant to be played with the updated .exe
Udvarnoky Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 Windows 95 will likely run these games fine, but if they don't or if you want to run it on a new computer, SCUMMVM is what you want. Also, as has been pointed out, the new EXE (available at this site) will play Sam & Max flawlessly, and you may end up having to use that since I've had trouble with Sam & Max even with 95. Good luck!

Naw, I have two - it's just an old one I keep around for older games. But my current one is becoming outdated: 1.4ghz 80gig HD Gforce 2 Ultra 512 Mb of Ram Thanks again for the help Udvarnoky.
Samnmax221 Posted June 26, 2004 Posted June 26, 2004 I got one but its not working right now so I have to just use scuimmvm which works great anyway.
Udvarnoky Posted July 2, 2004 Posted July 2, 2004 TheMadDoofer, were you able to order the compilation? LucasArts just took it down from the store and I'm curious as to whether or not you were able to get it.
campincarl Posted July 2, 2004 Posted July 2, 2004 the link for the bundle with dott just redirects me to their main store
TheMadDoofer Posted July 3, 2004 Author Posted July 3, 2004 I hadn't ordered it yet, but now I know no to. Stupid Lucasarts - I have to try ebay.
