I've had aobut 5 of them come through the Shoppe in my time, and if they were repackagings they gave absolutely no indication of it. Are you positive you've seen this in a folder, Jim? I could be mistaken. I still have the manual; it's definitely a folder-like square manual like most EA folders. If your boxes were square, then those must be the real deal. Jim offerred $55, but if he really wants to let me have it I'll take it. I'm not going higher than $35 though, as I only need it for a PC copy of the code... assuming the disks work. You're the seller, Lee, you decide who gets it. I have the completely cracked PC code, if that's all you want... In case people didn't realize, I have cracked versions of practically any PC game. And for those I don't have, I can crack them myself.

It's on 5-1/4" disks, but there's instruction card on how to order the 3.5" size. 8) There's also the box, instructions, and registration card (partially filled out). I would say all items are "very good" by the MobyGames scale. The disks are untested until I get home. Ack, I want that too. Uh... It looks like we'll either need to formally have a bid (I didn't anticipate this either!) or maybe you could put it on ebay and we could bid in our own little way. -- http://www.MobyGames.com/ The world's most comprehensive historical PC gaming database project. -- This message was sent to you because you are currently subscribed to the swcollect mailing list.

It's the female version, which is harder to come by because fewer were produced (because "girls don't play with computers as much as boys" B-) - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2000 4:49 PM Subject: Re: Re: [SWCollect] Introducing myself I had no idea Alter Ego was so desirable...what's up?

You're the seller, Lee, you decide who gets it. BTW, despite the fact it's labeled "female version" and the O has a plus on the bottom (to make a female symbol), only three of the nine faces on the front are women. That's correct, aside from the gender symbol and the border color (male is black, female is red) the two boxes are identical. -- This message was sent to you because you are currently subscribed to the swcollect mailing list.

Re: [SWCollect] Introducing myself
C.E. Forman boldly stated: Alter Ego in a folder? I've never heard of such a thing. The only ones I've ever seen are square, flattish boxes (same length and width as the EA/Activision folders, but a bit thicker). Yeah, that's it. Jim offerred $55, but if he really wants to let me have it I'll take it. I'm not going higher than $35 though, as I only need it for a PC copy of the code... assuming the disks work. You're the seller, Lee, you decide who gets it. Great. Well Jim has lowered his offer due to it's condition and not being a folder, but he still outbid you. It's also easier to send it to him because I have some other stuff I promised to send him a long time ago. I do appreciate your honesty in your original offer, though. -- Lee K.
