Star Wars: The Old Republic Collector’s Edition, BioWare
Gorgeous box. Art book. Soundtrack cd. Authenticator. And of course, the Darth Malgus statue.

The Lord of the Rings Online: The Mines of Moria Expansion - Collector’s Edition
Came in a nice big box with lots of extras—a soundtrack cd, a small art book, a cloth map of Moria, and a replica One Ring. Pretty cool!

Keeping the Fallout lovefest burning a little longer with a peek at the original release's autoplay menu in Win 98 and the cool installer artwork. 🔥
HUMONGOUS INSTALLATION: 644MB.
With my 1.2GB HDD back then, that really was too humongous an installation; very likely used the 88MB option.

Small pick up! Lemmings Revolution on PC boxed!
I had this game growing up but it gave us issues on our PC so I didn't get to play it much. I will be adding it to my backlog wheel!
Looks really neat but I really should start with the amiga/DOS games first I think!

"The point is I was defending the fantasy genre with terminal intensity, when what I should have said is "Dad, you're right, but let's give Krull a try and we'll discuss it later.""

This stuff being explained to generations who have no idea makes me feel old AF.
Windows lives on the C: drive, and the reason it's not called A: or B: goes back to the 1970s

Yesterday I stumbled across a Reddit-post from user "Apprehensive-Tea7447" showing off a PHYSICAL EDITION OF SKALD that he made as a fan project! The product looks insanely good😍 One of the most moving tributes I've ever gotten and it felt absolutely amazing to see!

Wow!
We've just been having a look through a sweetly presented digital version of the Jurassic Park novel for the Apple Mac released in 1991.
In the preface, Michael Crichton talks about how enthusiastic he is for the format and how it allows him to add sound effects and animations.
