DOS Games Discussion

Completely free games(but have sorcery). I favor them for casual playing once in a while

SilkRoad is a grind fest.

Dungeon runners another grind fest, but lots of items. There's a pay option for the membership items, but it's just as fun with out those.

sounds like that pipes game. Except that was changing the flow of liquid, not balls.

haha my bad. I didn't think to look through the files on the CD, i just tried to run the one i had already installed. Nice catch

Dungeon keeper gold does not run in DOSBOX, i just tried it now and it said it wont run in dos. The game was made for win95. the exe file is keeper95 at least

you don't need dosbox for dungeon keeper gold. =) i play it as well. There are problems with music or sounds. On either one. It's sad, but doesn't really spoil gameplay unless it's sound, which i think is DK2

You are looking for two files named: SOUND.DAT and SPEECH.DAT They can be found by downloading a Dungeon Keeper (original) demo-- just unzip and copy those two files from the Sound folder of the demo game and past them into the sound folder for your "soundless" keeper gold directory. If y...

sounds like you guys need to use tuneup utilitys 2007. It optimizes everything about your computer/internet connect. Registry defrag(not Harddrive). Broken links to files etc. makes your pages load in pretty near 3-5secs depending on responce time from their server. I be sure to use this thing after...

lords of the realm 2 soundtrack.

that or Might and Magic 6. It's pretty much a turn based RPG when you push enter it'll pause the game until you take action. I have 4 heros i control that way, then you push Enter again and it'll go back to real time.

Very addicting

Define free. You mean don't need to pay monthly? or don't need to pay for the game at all?

Now yeah, seriously now. Vista is a reality, it is on most new PCs that are sold, so the probs with restricted accounts will surface. And even if dosbox works flawless in Vista -(Yay for the dosbox team, nice work they've done)- there is the problem of writing to the HD. Must try someday if it's ev...

grats

sounds almost like Ninja Gaiden, but that's Nintendo

gotta say, love your avatar. Nothing like a woman with a gun, not to mention it's a cartoon! muhah ^^

tell us what you've done already. Tried Dosbox? Any specific problems?

The Presidents of the United States. Tool.

Edit: Crash Test Dummies

homm2 crashed a lot on me. HOMM3 on the otherhand works perfect. You should get it =) they use a lot of the HOMM2 stuff, just made it work for WinXP better.

Btw, i don't think it crashed because of running it on XP. It just had a few bugs. Helps to save often so you don't lose your progress

usualy stuff that slows down a computer that badly is a virus. There are some out there that a lot of scanners don't detect.. You pretty much need to know what to look for.. Here's a link to a data file that is updated every day, if you don't have the scanner yet that is also free. http://www.trendm...

friend of mine found a game called Dungeon runners. It's another mmorpg style game.. Though, you don't need to pay to play.. There is of corse stuff that you can't use unless you're a member.. Quite a bit actualy. Least your friends can hang with you on the game. =)

WoW was fun at first, but now, Blizzard managed to bork every single aspect I ever found cool about it! That and private servers are either hacked or empty! But this reminds me I gotta reinstall Starcraft BW sometime soon! word. The battle grounds that setup killed it for me.. Everyone LOVES them.....
