I just found a brand new "Ultima Adventures 2: martian dreams" It's still in the original shrinkwrap with the original "68.99$" pricetag on it. Madness!
I don't want to open it incase I can sell it on Ebay or something hahaha.
How much do you think it's worth? If anything that is hahaha.

If it is the real Martian Dreams it might be worth a bit. Savage Empire is easy to come by but Martian Dreams is quite a bit rarer to find.

Ya it has the $68.99 pricetag on it from whenever it was in the store.
It's the real martian dreams as far as I can tell, unless there was a "fake" version or something.
Any more info would be appreciated
cheers,

Wasn't it called "Worlds of Ultima" ? I never saw the original box.
Also, $68.99 or 68.99$? I find a $70 price tag to be somewhat unlikely considering no other Ultima title ever retailed for that high, but if that is a different currency (thus the dollar sign being found on the other end of the amount, I guess) it would pry be something much different.

Hm, yes, they must've shrunk a bit in those 11 years
I wonder what losing that 1/20 of an inch will do to their market value

Well I'm not sure! Go ahead and make an offer!
I'd trade it for a few super nintendo games or something too, so if you have some tell me what they are

Oh hey I also can get a "brand new" unopened version of U7 the black gate, the original box from when it was released. That's open for offers as well if you want it. I'll get more info on that if you want.

Sounds sweet. All I really want though is the Images of the original disks to replace the ones I have that had gone bad for my original disk versions of u7 and SI. Man I was happy the day I found the u7&si games on CD a few years ago. But still, having a working disk version again would be good.

Actually, Soul Harvester, they DID sell games for $70 US dollars a couple years back. I'm pretty sure I paid $69.99 for Ultima 8 the day it came out. Actually, the day before the day it officially came out, thanks to the knuckleheads working at my local Egghead Software.
And then another 20 bucks for the Speech Pack.
55-70 bucks was a pretty common price range for the big ticket games.
Oh... and I once saw an original, unopened Martian Dreams selling on Ebay for well over $250.

No advertising for warez copies of games (I deleted a post that offered images of the disks).

thanks dominus
Holy SHATNER 250$! Jesus I wonder if I could get that much. That'd take a hefty chunk of my bike and ski debt hahaha
Insanity!
Um, I might put it on ebay, sorry guys, but you'd probably do the same hahaha. I would have been happy with 10$ or something, but I'll stick it up there and try to milk it for every last $ ahahahahaa.
I'll throw the original U7 up there too.
thanks for the info "nobody nowhere"

But is it warez if the individual owns the original media?

Our laws state we are allowed to have 1 backup of the original that we own.
Now:
1. My original's are stuffed, I can't backup straight from them.
2. If there was a "warez" link posted, I missed it.
Ah well, guess I have to be content with the original's with the already integrated expansions that I have a couple of copies of on cd. (u7 collection, extra cd that came with U9).

JamesM: I'm no lawyer but my guts says no but strangely enough many times the gutfeeling is not the same as the actual law. And also as the Exult forum is viewed by people from alll over the world we would have to think of all the different laws. So, no warez or warez like stuff here.
MV:
1. find it somewhere else if you must but the forum needs to be clean
2. It was not a link but an offer to images when you contact the author of the post (and as I wrote, I deleted the post not just edited it).

I'm cool with that. I can understand your view from an administrative point.

Right, this seems to be degrading into a warez links thread. Deleted post; closed thread.
