I'm just downloading Riven after having completed the realMyst download haha ... Razz

Yeah, I got the heads up by Wamduskasapa on the GoW forums and this time
finally I thought I'd grab those and succumb to the temptation to try and to see if
they will really be running fluently and without any extra efforts to make them run
at all lol ... (of course, I have the DVDs and all like everyone of you too haha ... but ...)

Thanks, Firesign, this is definitely a great offer and they even gifted me with
6 additional games ... I am glad and now happily waiting for my Riven download
to be completed ... Very Happy

woot! i can tell you that riven runs perfectly for me in win xp under parallels on a macbook pro, so it should be good with pretty much anything modern. i'll at least be getting realmyst, don't know why i haven't already.

Firesign and all, I finally installed both, Riven and realMyst, in the morning and they
are running perfectly well on my machine with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit ... Razz

Yeah, I've never had any problems with anything since I'm running under Windows 7,
this is really the best and most comfortable and stable OS for me compared to the
older Windows versions I've had for almost decades, but I'm still very surprised to see
these old games now running very smoothly in these days ... but that doesn't necessarily
have to be a reliable indicator for everyone since every computer is and behaves differently
and operates under different conditions ... Very Happy
