Check this out! - The KQ Compilations Thread

[MATTANDALEX]

Oh i forgot about Magna cum Laude. so then the box would be missing 2 games

[Deloria]

MCL definitely isn't Larry! It isn't even played by Larry and has no puzzles! Al Lowe didn't even participate!

[MATTANDALEX]

So i'm sure vivendi would put it in there any way being that they will most likely try to squeeze every penny out of it as possible.

[Deloria]

I might be able to uunderstand some people liking MoE but never MCL.

[Jafar]

I'd find it the other way around. I mean, some people have bad taste in humor, so they'd like  MCL, but MoE?

[Storm]

Some people have bad taste all-around

It appears that the compilations were delayed once more. The new date is March 30th, 2006. My order is estimated for an April 3rd 2006 delivery. I'm starting to believe that these are fake, or something like that. They just keep delaying them. It's so annoying.

Maybe VU delayed it so that The Silver Lining: Shadows could be included....remember, Say said that the release date is also up to VU now. Evidently, VU has some kind of interest in the release date of Shadows now.

[dark-daventry]

I hope they do include The Silver Lining in the collection (however unlikely it may be ). I e-mailed them about the delays, and am waitijng for a response, and when I get one, I will post it. (although I think I may hasve sent it to the wrong address)

I think you're thinking a little too much into it.  They probably sent the cease and desist order to test how serious the fans and people working on the project were about these kinds of games.  They probably delayed the release date AGAIN in anticipation of The Silver Lining coming out.  Every time the date of release comes and goes and The Silver Lining hasn't been released yet, they'll push the release date back a few months again.  And they'll keep doing that until The Silver Lining is released so there will be more people wanting the compilations.  Either that or they're giving their lowest-paid programmers time to convert the games into WinXP-compatible games.  Either way, I'm EAGER, no, ANXIOUS to play King's Quest again!  I want me some King's Quest baby!  >.<  If they push the release date back a YEAR...I'll go crazy!!  Like, mental institution crazy!  CRAZY CRAZY!!                   

Maybe I'm already crazy!  RELEASE IT ALREADY!!  I'm waiting for the Wal-Mart's release date of Dec 15th to go by and see what Wal-Mart does.

[Rosella]

You know, we have an asylum for that.

[dark-daventry]

Well, today is Dember 15th, and so far nothing... I never even knew Walmart sold it. And why is their date different than Amazon's? Well, we'll see what happens...

[Deloria]

Will the Williams' get royalty off of this?

And MCL doesn't have bad humor, it has no humor! It's nothing but fart  jokes and you play this weird relative called Lenny Lovet!

[Yonkey]

Will the Williams' get royalty off of this?

I don't believe they make any more money off the series ever since they left Sierra.

[Deloria]

Not even 5%?

[awesomeasapossum]

Walmart.com- Released 2/1/2006 Rating Pending
Target.com- Item is out of stock Rating Teen
Amazon.com- Release 3/30/2006 Rating Teen

[Dirk Delshire]

I'd still love them to remake all the old games in KQ VI style and text options on all.
I can dream can't I...

[Deloria]
