      Ken,

      Are you surprised that Vivendi decided to release the Kq,Sq,Pq and Lsl collections again for the first time since the 2nd collection series was relased in 1997?

      I’m curious to see what they release. The old games can be difficult to get to run on modern machines, and I doubt they are fixing up the products.

      I really think they’ve missed some great opportunities. There isn’t much family-oriented product in the market. I would think that rather than releasing a lot of the old games at once, more money might be found by focusing on something like a Kings Quest 7/Torins Passage bundle at Christmas. The later games are “more compatible” with today’s hardware.

      Overall, I’m just happy to see that the games aren’t completely forgotten.

      Ken,

      I have heard that some 3rd party company was contracted to make the old game compatale with the newer systems.

      You can find them at most online retailers. There is an amazon link in the above thread, or just look at Future Releases for PC Games at Amazon. They should still be in the top 25 releases.

      Cool, I did a little searching and found more info. It is going to be interesting to see how these sets are packaged.
