NAVE Posted August 23, 2001 Share Posted August 23, 2001 I played numbers 3 and 4, and now I want to play the first ones. I don't think Lucas Arts are selling them, so can you download it. I don't want to do anything illegal though. Do you think I could ring Lucas Arts or e-mail them and buy it from there. Please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brief Posted August 23, 2001 Share Posted August 23, 2001 LucasArts sells them on their website, scroll down a bit to "Curse of Monkey Island," it includes both "The Secret of Monkey Island" and "Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge." Although you don't need "Curse of Monkey Island," it's only 15 bucks, so I think it's well worth it.. ------------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Threepwood Posted August 26, 2001 Share Posted August 26, 2001 well the rock recommends the bounty pack which is only £20 and contains all 3 games.If ya smell it.Or you could just download it somewhere but the rock doesn't recommend that because abndonware is not very good. ------------------ Iam the best damn explorer there ever was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAVE Posted August 28, 2001 Author Share Posted August 28, 2001 Ok. Thanks. Will it work with Windows 98, or is it to old? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brief Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 You can run them in Win98... I'm running WinME, and can still play the games. You will, however, need to run them in a full-screen DOS box. Which is simple enough--Click on the Start button, select programs, and then to MS-DOS Prompt. ------------------ "I've blinded myself!" --Frasier Crane, Frasier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend (real close friend, one of those that dont lie to u ever) that knows a guy that had an abandonware page in yahoo, and he had MI1 there, but he was asked to eilther shut down or take MI1 out because LucasArts was still selling it. ALTHOUGH there are some pages and I (sorry feral) myself downloaded MI1 AND 2 ------------------ Well, u know. the trip wasnt really like its showing, i had to make it comic... u know... no one kicked me out... well, just this guy... i mean an army of undead koalas and some evil forces from hell!!!!!!... and this mushroom... well the mushrooms were the evil forces of hell... mushroom, singular... ok forget the koalas...

Natty Posted October 31, 2001 Share Posted October 31, 2001 Go to a computer shop and ask them if they can order it in, if not, then email LucasArts or ring them up and tell them you're keen to purchase MI1 and MI2, however you haven't been able to find it in any of the stores. Or you could buy the bounty pack, which I've never seen in Australia, although many of you UK and American people mention it on a regular basis. I've borrowed MI1 and MI2 off my aunt, while I've lent her Mi3 and MI4, which I don't think is a bad thing, many people lend games to friends or relative, there's a difference between borrowing a game and swiping it Anyway, topic closed, however if you want me to re-open it then let me know and I'll reopen it ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://nattsy.homestead.com/files/smurfsig.gif" border=0> Natty Is Feeling Very <IMG SRC="http://www.imood.com/query.cgi?email=nattydevil@optushome.com.au&type=1&fg=CC33F&bg=66CCFF" border=0> At This Present Time (Note Subject To Change Without Warning!)
