  • *sigh*...CD Cleaning

    Well, I'm in the process of cleaning and trying to get rid of my old stuff...which never works well with me...and I've been going through my software CDs. I've been through them before, but I still had about 10 years of software hanging around. I didn't have a problem getting rid of most of the old versions of software (though the realization that I had many thousands of dollars invested in shiny coasters was painful) but I'm having a lot of trouble getting rid of the games. Even though I know most of them wouldn't even work without a lot hacking around with old drivers, etc.

    Sorry, empathy thread.

    A few I'm keeping (like civ and moo) but most of these should probably go...

    CivNet
    SimIsle
    Incredible Toon Machine
    SimCity2000
    SimTower
    Outpost
    Star Reach
    Caesar
    Steel Panthers II
    Chess Maniac 5 Billion and 1
    Total Annihilation
    CivII w/Conflicts and Fantastic Worlds
    Red Alert
    Politika
    Seven Kingdoms
    Tomb Raider II
    NHL 96-2002
    Thief
    Epidsode I Racer
    MOOII
    Starcraft

      You're insane. Most of these games are gold.

      Send them to me if you don't want them anymore, I'll make good use of them

          These games aren't "decent" for you?

            I never played them. They are of genres I don't care for.

              Nah, like I said, I'm definitely keeping the Civ stuff and Moo stuff (though I can't imagine CivNet would run...or that I could find anybody to play with if it did.) I haven't really decided on the rest of it.

              Though, anybody who wants Outpost is welcome to it. I'm keeping the manual, though, that was by far the best part of the game...

                throwing away Tomb Raider II!
                I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                      Getting rid of old games? Good lord, games don't take up THAT much space.

                        some of you guys buy a lot of games. I only buy 2 or 3 games a year. Tops.

                        I should get rid of some of my old games that were a mistake. But I doubt anyone wants them. I want to get rid of SimGolf, CTP2, Black and White, Everquest 2, and World of Warcraft.

                        I have some games I bought in 1995 that I'd really like to get rid of. I made some stupid game purchases after I bought my first PC. Games like Nascar racing, and Links golf. My favourite games of that time period were not even bought, but obtained other ways... (MOM, X-com). There is no way anyone would want a game from 1995.

                          I have roughly 800+ games, counting everything I have on consoles and PC.... I'm a real gaming freak, don't think I ever beat anything though cause my attention span is like zero, and I suck....lol

                            Oh thank you lord. I am glad to know that most of u guys have like 3 cd cases full of games. Every time ikick my dam toe on those case i have to ask tuber why do u still have these things. and he always tells me cause i might feel like playing them again. So in the end he keeps them and I have managed a nice place out of the way where i dont see them

                              You are throwing away those games?

                              You are insane and will regret it later
