Mouse Nightshirt Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Oyez folks! I'm getting a tad annoyed with my very old DOS version of TFTD, so I thought I should try and invest in the CE edition. However, a search of amazon and eBay yeilds no results. Does anyone know where I can buy a copy of the Collector's Edition these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 It's really tough, Mouse. I got my CE version off eBay about 3 years ago for a fair price. These days, it harder to come by and costs lots more. You could try Amazon.com, but it still costs plenty... if they even have it in stock. - Zombie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Nightshirt Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 Found this: https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PC-GAME-X-COM-COLLEC...1QQcmdZViewItem Is that the Collectors Edition or is that just a collection of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 That's the UK Collector's Edition with UFO, TFTd, Apoc, Interceptor and Email X-COm in it. I have the same version and can confirm it contains the CE version of UFO and TFTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Nightshirt Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 And just checking that this is the version that (supposedly) works on XP at normalish speed with some minor tweaking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomb Bloke Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 The CE (Windows) version works happily under XP SP1/2. Due to some faulty graphic coding, the game looks weird on most systems, but a certain fan made loader (which is used by just about everyone) does the job. The CE version has never been officially patched, so any other is designed for Dos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouse Nightshirt Posted September 9, 2006 Author Share Posted September 9, 2006 Aha! Some more got put up within a few hours of the first one ending, much cheaper, so if anyone else is looking, maybe now is the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
