That's quite possibly the most selfish thing I've ever heard. Just sayin'.

"I hope my grandfather dies soon so I can play a slightly wider variety of games."

Get your priorities straight.

Hey come on. Be nicer. Its not nice just saying you want someone to die!
but its good to hear you will be able to play more games again.

Ambrosia should make an EV for X cos they have made Bubble Trouble for X and that runs really good.

-esw-dragoon_77, please. Ofcourse its greedy to hope that his grandfather dies just so he can get a computer. Ofcourse his grandfather is more worth than a computer. He can be friends with him and do various fun things with him. Because his grandfather has so much experience in life, he can get some wisdom too. But before you made such a big thing of it, I just ignored it and rejoiced with him. Okay? I agree with you, I didnt just know his post would cause such a big reaction.

I am eager to try to ansver mission questions

Well my original statement really didn't say I "hope for it soon". It just said that he may die soon "as I suspect" because he is an old man with many ailments.

That would be just a waste of time. Instead, they ported them for the Nova engine so you could play it on Windows and OS X....

It would be better if they carbonized them cos many people may not want nova and only want EV.

Does EV only work on Power PC's from before '97? Or does it work on MacOS 8.1/8.2?

Well, you see, you'd have to carbonize EV and EVO, then port EV and EVO to Windows. It is much better to just buy Nova and for $30 you get EV, EVO and Nova for Windows and EV, EVO and Nova for OS X.

No-- EV works on many computers.

Anything better then the requirements should be able to run EV.
There is no such thing as 8.2. There's 8, 8.1 (last 68K OS), 8.5, and 8.6.
