Need some geekage.

[winneganfake]

So, I should be honest here- I got rid of the PS2 a few weeks ago, mostly due to finances (buying more games was just about as expensive as smoking!) but also to cut down on distractions during the time when I'm supposed to be painting. So, I need some PC games for those times when I've got free time for gaming. Which brings us to some oddballquestions. Thanks to the incompatibility of my computer with most 3D cards, I'm stuck with "software acceleration." (Intel-speak for older titles only)

So, if any of you have a copy of any of the following you'd be willing to loan/trade/sell me really cheap, just let me know.

Planescape: Torment
Freespace
Neverwinter Nights (AFAIK, it'll work without a card)
Baldur's Gate, Or BGII: Throne of Bhaal.
Diablo II: Lord of Destruction (Just the add-on, I've got the game itself)

Meh. So you prolly won't be able to run MU ( http://www.muonline.com/ ), but it's always worth a try. Got a very diablo-esque interface, 3D, and generally cool hack'n'slash. Oh. And absolutely free.

Actually, I tried downloading it, and then ran into problems with the font of all things- as in, it looked like braille more than anything else.

[blakthorne.livejournal.com]

Well. That sucks monkeys. ...erm. Did you have the font pack downloaded? Just a thought, though ya prolly covered that. :)

[winneganfake.livejournal.com]

Yep. That and the game was running a tad slow. Just enough to be annyoing. Between that and my other issues with MMORPG's, it's just best I stay away from it.

I have never winter nights.

I also have dungeon siege, which if NVN works, it should as well.

If you are interested in strategy games, I also have Rise of Nations, the expansion pack for RoN and Empire Earth

[winneganfake.livejournal.com]

NvN would absolutely rock. Same for DS, if I can get either working.

RoN doesn't quite float my boat right now though- thanks for the offer though.

I'll take a look

I have a bunch of stuff at home. Some Baldur's Gate, Dungeon Seige 1&ii, Mech Warrior, Starcraft, Warcraft, Redneck Rampage, Myst, one of the older Final Fantasys too. I'll make a list and you can let me know what you want. Getting it to you might be the tricky part though. Of course an excuse to go to Seattle is always good. :)

I'm pretty much just a CoH (http://www.coh.com) guy these days, so all the other stuff if just taking up space.

Thanks!

Trust me- I'd be a CoH guy too, if my system could handle it.

I've got both BGII and NWN. We'll (or at least I'll) be trekking up to Seattle, probably on Saturday.

I've actually got BGII, it's the expansion I'm after, if you've got that.

Thanks!

[mahariel.livejournal.com]

got that, and now that I think of it, I'm pretty sure we've got Torment floating around here somewhere.

[winneganfake.livejournal.com]

If you have Torment, I will personally kiss your feet. Finding a copy of that game for sale in seattle has become impossible.

Hey Dmitri, just to let you know I have a mobo for you guy and trying to scrounge up a processor for it. It's an AMD board and uses the nforce2 chipset. I'll also see if I can find a case with a power supply to put it in.

If we can visit in the near future we'll bring it up.
