Retrospective: Grim Fandango

[Witcher1979]

Sent you a trust message. Website looks a little low-budget but for £1.99 payable through Paypal I am thinking it is worth the risk.

Got mine today, it is in a plastic sleeve with printed disc's I am happy though cheers m8

Overrated game I still have my PC original retail box & remember how poor the controls were & obscure the puzzle solutions.

Not a classic IMO at all far from it!!!

BURN HIM!!!!!!!!!

This thread did, I have the install CD's. I installed it last night, using an installer that works under Windows 7 and fired up Grim Fandango...

It really has aged well IMO. Sadly, stuck at 640 x 480 4:3 screen but doesn't really take away from the game...

Worked perfectly fine with my 360 gamepad, sadly game still crashes to desktop....

I see you used the win 7 installer but did you use the win 7 launcher from another download? This auto patches the game and does some other things. I think the whole reason of this launcher is to fix all the bugs.

I just had a good session on it, amazing game still without any crashes (yet). It may help
