Residual VM Stable Release Brings Grim Fandango to Modern PCs

[octafish]

Until now we scraped along the ground like rats, but from now on, we soar. Like eagles. Yeah. LIKE EAGLES... ON... POGO STICKS.

Damn I hope I can find the discs.

I wasn't aware this game had so many incompatibility problems. I remember playing it around the time Windows Vista came out, and again on a different computer running Windows 7 maybe two years ago. I've never experienced any incompatibility problems, not even a crash or a texture glitch.

more Manny!

also:
i have the longest journey and the longest journey: dreamfall installed
and fully functional on my pc, right now

what are people doing wrong?

 

[CoL0sS]

Great news. I've been having occasional problem running it on Win7. Now I only need to find my disc XD

 

[Reginald]

Oh, excellent! I've still got the hard copy. It's an early Christmas miracle!

Great news, now if only I bought Grim Fandango in 90s I'd be sorted. Come on Lucasarts release your back catalogue on gog already, or are you that afraid of success and money?

I wish they'd do this, too. I hate it when people to miss put on things.

And this, children, is why it's important to still have physical game libraries, and why servers being required to run games is still stupid

 

[Aardvark Soup]

Awesome! And it also appears copies of the Grim Fandango are still quite affordable (which might change when this causes demand to go up), so I'm going to buy a copy right away.

 

[Milanezi]

Sad, got my hopes up for nothing, this is one the few games I believe the hype about it being "one of the best games ever", but see, I DON'T HAVE THE GAME. So, no fun for me

I hate to burst the bubbles of people who would like to see this made available for purchase, but LucasArts and their IP's are now the property of the Walt Disney corporation and Grim Fandango will likely never see the light of day (or at least not for a very very very long time). It looks like Ebay is the way to go if you want the physical discs, there are other ways to get the game of course.
