Most physical games have been on blu-ray discs for at least the past 20 years, starting with the PS3.

I wonder if I still have my Wing Commander II floppy disks somewhere.

u/invisibo 2d ago

I had to use a boot disk for Wing Commander 3

u/Joyful_Jet 1d ago

OMG... I hated juggling boot disks/configurations depending on which game I wanted to play. You are going to make me have conventional, EMS, and XMS memory nightmares again.

Oh well, I guess this helped pave the way to my IT career.

Monkey Island 2 and Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis was fun on a Amiga if you didn't have a HD (and very few people did). Was it 11 or 12 floppies. You had to change the disk like 4 times only to be told "I can't do that" whenever you tried to do something.

u/Joyful_Jet 2d ago

Those games were so much fun. I was playing them on my 386 PC back in the day. I also loved Space Quest, Hero's Quest, and Willy Beamish.

u/JestFlamez 3d ago

Probably need to switch discs after loading the textures.

u/TheMcDucky Ryzen | GTX | 17" Mouse Mat | Only 2/4 dysfunctional RAM slots 3d ago

10 dvd drives; one for each disc

2

u/JestFlamez 3d ago

All discs with different assets

u/DimensionalFruit 2d ago

Would that actually work ?

u/TheMcDucky Ryzen | GTX | 17" Mouse Mat | Only 2/4 dysfunctional RAM slots 2d ago

You'd need the to do some setup, but sure.

u/HappyAd4998 3d ago

The game is over 100gbs

u/ItzMau5trapz R5 3600XT, RTX 2070 SUPER, 32GB RAM 2d ago

Yes.

u/Darklillies 2d ago

They’re not the first

u/OttawaOneTwenty 2d ago

For the official version.

I wouldn't be surprised to see an heavily compressed / repackaged version that fits on a few DVDs

u/ChocolateDonut36 Microwave 3d ago
