re: Best scene in Tex Murphy Series ...

Hey all, this is my first post (I posted a few times as Overlord at the old site a year or two ago). I just finished playing through Pandora Directive (my favourite game of all time) for the first time in I think over 4 years! DOSBox is a beautiful thing!! I'm half-way through UAKM too, again the fi...
