Casa Addams Posted August 7, 2002 Posted August 7, 2002 Ok... I know what you are thinking... "don't start..." But does anyone of you actually got it or seen it or something? I mean the ISO file without audio is pretty known. And the zip file with the wav files in awfull quality is also known. But a real copy/original? Anyone? What was in the box? Someone? One? Hrm...
elTee Posted August 8, 2002 Posted August 8, 2002 I take it this was removed by a mod? Nads. Someone e-mail me with info, quick!
SirPsycho Posted August 8, 2002 Posted August 8, 2002 Nope Casa suggested to "peep", I first didn't see a good reason for it, but after that I've decided to follow his example. Just for case. I think this thread may be closed now...
Casa Addams Posted August 8, 2002 Author Posted August 8, 2002 For those of you who are verry verry excited now: No! We dont exchange the Zak FM-Towns ISO now and you can't have it! Really! Nobody seems to have it! But this thread should stay open for the possibility that someone actually has the FM-Towns ISO.
Ender Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 And Zak256 is of course totally playable under ScummVM. But none of have the ISO, so don't ask. Seriously, in my next communique with LEC Legal I'll ask if they can re-release this. But I suspect, as with LoomCD, they didn't retain the rights to it.
Casa Addams Posted August 15, 2002 Author Posted August 15, 2002 LOL! Zak McKracken doesn't belong LucasArts as Loom CD-Rom doesn't. There is no way that they will rerelease it! Would be great though.. Can't belive nobody has it... wouldn't even mention Indy3 or Loom for FM-Towns wich unfortunately (?) DO exist... ; (
Casa Addams Posted August 15, 2002 Author Posted August 15, 2002 BTW: Put a gun on their chest and look em deep in the eyes and then ask em if there really was a version of Rescue on Fractalus! and Ballblazer for IBM-PC or if they just made it up to drive me crazy...
mercatfat Posted August 15, 2002 Posted August 15, 2002 They made it up. Both of them existed only on C64 and Atari 5200 and 7800. What the hell is 'FM - Towns'?
scabb Posted August 15, 2002 Posted August 15, 2002 Originally posted by mercatfat What the hell is 'FM - Towns'? I dunno, but it's Zak Mckracken with 256 colours. And I need it.
QueZTone Posted August 15, 2002 Posted August 15, 2002 interesting. and loom was done that way too? cause i own the 256 clrs version with talkie. Except it doesnt show all the close ups in my version. Does this FM version show those closeups tho?
Ben Whatsisname Posted August 15, 2002 Posted August 15, 2002 I know this is gonna open up a whole FLOOD of replies, but there is appearantly a FM-Towns Monkey Island 1 too.
Benny Posted August 15, 2002 Posted August 15, 2002 The FM-Towns was an old japanese console as far as I know. I THINK it was also called the pc-engine which you have probably heard of but then again im probably wrong.
mercatfat Posted August 15, 2002 Posted August 15, 2002 I think FM Towns is a standalone system, if this site is correct. From what I can tell, only Zak and (maybe) Loom was made for it. PC Engine=Turbografx-16, the mecca of hardcore old school gaming.
scabb Posted August 15, 2002 Posted August 15, 2002 This is the original (yep, Japanese) FM Towns machine. Very much like a PC, games had to be installed... ..but with the FM Towns II (Also known as the FM Towns Marty) you didn't need to install games...so I guess it was more like a console: The games came on CDs. So you have a choice of either buying a Japanese Computer or a Japanese System to play the Zak Mckracken FM TOWNS game (or any other FM TOWNS game) The games and consoles are also very hard to find and very expensive. About $500 for the console at http://www.gamechoice.com.hk
