Cool i will have TO GET THIS!!!! And its my birthday the 14th Octobe so I can ask my parents to get it for me! I still cant believe it *takes a chill pill*

[Rosella]

Well, they included a sneek peak of KQ7, so they had already started it, and probably wanted to show off their Disney-ness

[Storm]

Yeah, but it's still strange to put that pic on the collection CD. Plus, I have that collection and it doesn't have that pic anywhere

Maybe it's supposed to be like a surprise release? Maybe they're not releasing any info because they could care less about this series, like this is a final goodbye and this will the END of their profit interests in the series...

That doesn't make any sense. Why invest in updating & re-distributing those old games if you don't bother letting people know about it?

Anyways, say this thing is for real. What does this renewed interest spells for KQIX and the rest of the fan projects out there?

Probably nothing.  I mean, there's no information about it there, nor on their website.  It's kind of risky to have a picture-less and information-less product and expect it to sell hundreds of thousands of copies...

well it has been nearly a week and i contacted Vivendi and Amazon....Amazon was tightlipped about it and told me they couldn't reveal any further info at this time and Vivendi I informed them at their piracy section and asked them if they could verify it's authenticity..I gave them links and it's nearly three days and they havent replied and the site's still up...that says to me that it's real

As you know, I  found on Amazon.com about a compilation of King's Quest being released supposedly in October 2005. Then Rosella found Space Quest and Police Quest compilations on Amazon as well. Being no information was given, I wrote to Vivendi's piracy unit regarding this matter and asked them if they could verify it for me. They replied today, and this is what they said:

"Thank you for writing.  Vivendi Universal Games will be releasing compilations of Kings Quest, Space Quest and Police Quest in October of 2005.  They are legitimate and official releases from VUG."

I do not lie!!!!! If I find a way, I will post the email for anyone who doesn't believe. They f**king coming out! Woohoo!!!!!!!

Okay, I'm really excited too. But WHAT is it?

[dark-daventry]

I think that the petition that someone put out has actually done the trick!!!! I  hope that there is an official sequel to KQ (I hope that KQIX doesn't get cancelled though if there is a sequel, because it would be horrible for you to throw away all of your hardwork on this WONDERFULLY done game!).

[Rosella]

I think it's a re-release of all 7 KQ games (and probably MoE)

[Deloria]

Okay...But what is the point of selling it so cheapley?

I guess it'll be just enough to shut down abandonware sites.
