You guys do not know what bad is in PC games until you play a game called Deep Ranger.

I believe you mean Deep Raider. Correct me if I am wrong.
I bought Deep Raider because of the box and it came with a hybrid gamepad-mouse. It was closed out for like 2.99 at EB. I figured if the game was bad I still have this neat gamepad-mouse hybrid that i am sure is worth more than 2.99.

I just loaded The Scroll on a poor unsuspecting computer. I finally figured out how to save. You have to have a certain item in your inventory before you can save. And you also have to exit your inventory and reenter before you can use the item to get to the save/load screen.

Anyone want to play this thing along with me or should I go it alone? or should I wait?

Wish I had a copy Jenny. I may have one in a week or so. Its not definite yet. Besides right now I need to finish Blackstone first.

I will Try to load it on XP.. but if that doesn't work I will have to wait til the 'spare box' is built.. This time I'm insisting on win98

Tig

I'm perfectly happy to wait for you guys, since you're interested.

Anyone else want to join the "fun?"

Sigh - I would but before I could order it - the only place that had it for sale went ga-ga cuckoo

Just have to crawl along through the underbelly of The Scroll without me. <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/pacify.gif" />

"ga-ga cuckoo" I'm still cracking up over that one...Those bananas almost went flying right out of my mouth!
Rusty

I was trying to be discrete..heh-heh

I think I will be laughing all night over that one...
Rusty

I'm still game whenever anyone wants to tackle it

You are riaght johnboy298 I made a mistake, the game is so bad that I cannot even remember the right name. I have the game pad too. It is slower than molasses in winter on Win98 I never tired it on XP.
If you get anywhere with the game please let me know.

The tentative start date for playing The Scroll is next week, when Johnboy gets his copy. So far there are 4 people playing (Syd, Tigger, Johnboy, and me) assuming the game will work in XP.

Anyone reading this, feel free to join us.
All you need is a copy of The Scroll and a computer to play it on...

Hummph..

It won't even let me install under xp.. It goes to the screen, but no matter what I click on, it flicks about a bit, then ignores me

Oh well, hopefully once Hubby has built the spare machine I can catch up..

Tig

Jenny ya'll may start because I dont know if I will even win the bid. So far no one else has out bid me. Cant imagine why? And if I do win the bid it needs to be shipped to me. So you all start and don't wait on me. I dont like detaining people. Thanks anyway, Johnny

It looks like we may be detained anyway, Johnboy.
Without you and Tig it would be just me and Syd playing.
And we can wait...

How long before your husband can build you a "new" old computer, Tigger?
We can wait until then.

Wow, this game must be really good if you all want to play it so badly!
Rusty

Actually Rusty, unless you are just being sarcastic, its supposed to be downright aweful.
Baags in the first degree! <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/woozy.gif" />

Hi Jenny,

it depends on how busy he is with work... the bits are there, I'll jog his memory this weekend!!

Tig

Sarcasm? Moi?
Rusty

Feel free to join us, Rusty.
I'm sure you'd just love this game.

Hmmmm...I don't know about that Jenny100! Looks like a real dog of a game to me.
Rusty

Our favorite kind! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" />

Jenny's right guys - we've waited this long to play it so a few more weeks isn't going to hurt - trust me it'll be just as bad then bwaha-hahahahahahaha
[syd digs her copy of The Scroll from the bottom of the pile, dusts the cobwebs off, stares at the picture on the cover and immediately has nightmares]

Does this mean we will need to keep a barf bag close by?

Or maybe in a padded room so our screams can't be heard????
