DOS Games Discussion

The website where BASS is up for download lists two versions, a CD version [60-something MB] or a floppy version [7 MB]. Which should I download? Is the CD version worth the time? Edit Note: I seem to have discovered a small bug in the smileys. I originally used parentheses rather than brackets for ...

Yeah, I know about Z2, I just was looking for some personal suggestions from people I trust... Bloodlines is good. I had downloaded it already, but I didn't start playing it until now. I downloaded all of the featured games a while ago, but they haven't changed them yet. :( I'm not a newbie to ZZT, ...

From my research, it appears that you have the wrong name for SPISPOD. What I've read seems to indicate that the actual name is Smashing Pumpkins Into Small Piles of <i><b>Putrid</b></i> Debris. Are these two seperate games, or one and the same?

I'm trying to run Zone66 on my computer. I've created a DOS start-up disk, and I start up the computer and type Zone66 to run, or whatever the file name is. It then gives me the message: Cannot run program because this file has been modified or deleted: Catalog.Exe I did not alter the Catalog, in ca...

I expected more responses than I recieved... Should I have posted this in the GCS forum?

I'm suprised no one has mentioned this before, but, J-Man, someone already said that Simcity was still being sold, so there was no chance that it would be freeware/shareware anyways, thus making your post unnecesary. Correct me if I'm wrong, please :) . And, Thunderdog, please humor him. We all made...

Don't worry, dnirex. Canada is a great place to live. Especially Waterloo Region. The winter weather in NY is colder apparently.

I'm thinking about redesigning my site, in case anyone's is interested. (Which is very doubtful)
It will have more of a 221B Baker Street theme/style. I decided that the "portal" theme didn't exactly fit with my nickname. Stay tuned.

No, I never *talked* with you, persay, Tony, I just read your posts, and the, um, news about you. You were *away* before I actually registered, I believe. So, Hi! I certainly hope you've changed.

I'm looking for some recommendation of good, clean ZZT (or MZX) games. Clean as in, little to no swearing, no sexual content or innuendo, etc. Particularly games that would inspire me as a ZZT programmer.

Who doesn't remember Gamer? Naturally, I remember her mainly because I got into so many fights with her. :rolleyes: But that's all forgiven now, I hope. It's nice to know you'll be staying on. We need you to represent Dosgames female population. Re: Thrall. I saw that ep. of Star Trek, "The Gam...

Hi everyone. I'm back. Again. Due to the stress of Grade 9, combatting my difficulties with staying focused on schoolwork and such, as I am homeschooled, I will be less active in the forum. Also, I have started work on my first ZZT game, The Black Pyramid, to be released by my new ZZT company, Twili...

I have Norton Internet Security. I don't know how to stop the pop-up killer, but I'll try. Thanks a <i>lot</i> Dogbreath.

Um... I can't get any of the screenshots to work.

All good game download sites should have a section on game creation.

My first year of high-school too, Check-Mate, technically. I say this because I am homeschooled.

Personally, I would love for TD to be booted. He posts about 75% of the swearing on the forum, and had to be removed from mod-dom. On Neopets: Personally, it bugs me even tho I haven't really played it, mainly because when I want to use the internet at my library everyone is using them for an infini...

Hooray!! My topic got listed in the DGF Key Topics Listings!

That web page is veeeerrrryy interesting. We need more pages like that. On a similar note, if you ever get a (often) mass forwarded e-mail, and you're not sure of it's validity check out http://www.truthorfiction.com

Is it AW or Warez?
