  DA Webstore... Neverhood

Hey Powers That Be…

What ware the chances of resurrecting The Neverhood and Skull Monkeys games and then selling them on the DA Webstore?

Who owns the rights?
Granted they don’t even make them anymore, but there has got to be a way…

I would much rather have the residuals go to Terry than some schmoe out in cyberworld.


I’ll be first in line – and that’s the fact jack!

Did Skullmonkeys ever come out on the PC?

No, PS1 only

We can ask, but it's Dreamworks.

Windows XP has a thing in the icon properties that
lets you run things under older versions of windows.

I have not had time to try it out yet.

when i get xp i'll try it... thanks.
now that i think about it, would that only work if you have 98 installed previously? my computer came with ME and never done anything to upgrade it....

ME does suck the most out of all the windows!!!!


I had trouble getting it to work with XP, but I have a computer with 98 on it so I didn't try very hard with my XP computer.
