This was the version I had as a kid and my introduction to the franchise. I had VGA graphics on my computer and so did the friend I “acquired” it from. I don’t know how or why my friend got this version, but this was the version he had for whatever reason. I had to wait until I got the CD-ROM collection in 1998 before I ever played this in VGA.
Maybe it's just me, but I found the original better. To me, the simpler the graphics, the more that was left to the imagination, and that was a huge part of the fun...
Any idea where I can get this EGA version? I have the Space Quest collection that has the original EGA version, and the VGA version of the remake, but it does not have this EGA version of the remake. I looked around on the internet, but it seems impossible to find. :-(
now back in '91 there were two different EGA version of the VGA remakes, there was a SQ1remake that had both VGA and EGA available in same product(box) they just kind of stretched the resolution to 640x400, where as there were a separate and more rare just EGA release that was true EGA, do you happen to know what version this was? do you still have the box for SQ1 remake ega?
