I realize piracy is kind of a touchy subject, but as far as i know Origin is dead, and SURELY they have abandoned Ultima7. Where can i get Ultima 7? This was a favorite game from my childhood, but i've lost the disks. I actually thought i found it at a thrift store a while back, but alas, it was missing a disk. Anyone know where i can get the game so i can get Exult to run and play this thing?

Thanks for your time,
Stephen

There's also a version of Ultima 9 that came with the "ultima collection" which contains all the ultima games up to ultima 8 (excluding the underworlds and savage empire/martian dreams). The ultima collection was also sold separatly, you could do an ebay search for that as well.

Good luck in your hunt!

Ebay is your best bet, I would say. I seached the web high and low (google) and couldn't find any copies of ultima collection, except on Ebay.

Hey I happend to have found a copy of this on Amazon...but you would have to break off an arm and a leg to afford it...any who if you do happen to be as rich as that here's the link..well if u can afford it good for you....I guess you can't beat being able to inherit the games from a parent...(yea lol I'm kinda young cough*16*cough) well hope it helps.....

Looks like around $65 is the going rate. I guess that's not too terrible, as it was about $30 when it came out.

EBgames is charging $200 for the Ultima Collection? That gives a new meaning to the phrase "bargain bin".
What is Richard Garriot wearing on the picture on the back of the box?

Isn't anyone selling cheap, legal CD's? I remember EA used to sell 'classics' for around $10.

They DO sell cheap legal CDs but only titles from the last three years or so. Older than five years is hard to come by and even though I don't accept abandonware as a legal word, it is a word that describes the old titles best...

If you're not too hung up on getting the entire Ultima Collection, you can usually find copies of U7 and U7 Part 2 on Ebay at a reasonable price.

The Ultima Collection has become...well, a collectable! :)
