Title: Discworld 2
Post by: Replicant on December 26, 2002, 01:11:21 PM

Hiyas

A friend has been searching for Discworld 2 but without any luck.  Anyone know what I can get/download a copy?  It's a fairly old game but Discworld 1 & 3 are easily available, 2 isn't!

Cheers

You can download it from here:

65Mb and it's free.  All legal too.   Merry Xmas :D

Thanks Swoop but all I keep getting is that the file doesn't exist on their server.  I've tried all of their suggestions and allowed pop-ups to fully load and reconfigured my download manager but still no luck. :(  Can you try it and at least I know if it is missing or something my end.

Cheers

Works fine for me.  Maybe your mate will have more luck.

Hmmm, I can't seem to find the Original X-Com over there... Someone here sent me a Windows compatible version of it, but I've long lost it now... and I'd like to give it a shot if I can run it on WinXP.

Cheers,

Well I've still got the Box/instructions/registration docs and all the junk they bundle with it but the CD's are elsewhere :mad:

It was 2 CD's ? Should make it easier to find.... I'll keep my eyes open.

Nope. It came on 2 CD's and it was waaaaaay bigger than 20mb lol Even the original 'Discworld' (which I have found) was 374mb, you thinking of the same thing?

X-Com "Enemy Unknown", 1st of the saga (TFDT and Apocalypse came next). This must be some Deluxe Edition, because the original I had could stand on a couple of floppys.

I've got the CD for X-Com......I just dont have any manuals......and the game uses the old crappy look-this-up-in-the-manual form of copy protection.

And which game is Gatso talking about?  X-Com or Discworld?

Discworld.

I've found my discs for Discworld I and Discworld Noir but II is evading me at the moment.

X-Com, I don't have.
