Alright, during my many years of gaming, there have always been a few titles that... were annoying to deal with, but yet, very fun.
So, has anyone else come across fun games that always had issues?
Here's my (incomplete & quick) list:
*Theme Park
*Ultima 8
*System Shock
*Nox
*Stonekeep
*Castlevania
A quick rundown: theme park & ultima 8 are those titles that prefer restart in MS DOS mode... and, if I'm not mistaken, you have to have a certain amount of memory (too much will make it think you have none, bah!). System Shock for me crashed, I've always had a hard time getting it to run.. properly. Nox doesn't like really NT, so you're stuck with 98 in most cases. Uninstalling the game takes FOREVER... the uninstalling utility removes file by file with great pauses, regardless of how fast your computer is.
Stonekeep really seems to hate crystal audio, can't seem to get any sound to work. Well that's too bad because I like crystal audio and won't be getting a different soundcard!
Castlevania will keep giving you "cannot divide by 0" messages now and then... but once the game finally catches, it runs fine.
And as of now, I still haven't successfully played Theme Park... maybe I should buy another CD of it and torment myself by trying to make it run. I've got enough torments...
