That's great, cause I would like to play the game. Is v1.3 still available?
I would like to purchase a copy sometime, and how much would it be? I can't
believe what v1.2x series does to compressed HD's. If you let it just sit
there after it stops during installation, the directory you want the game
to go in to just goes infinite.

Yeah, it probably was. The funny thing was that the store had a lot of
copies of it on the shelves. On the box there was a gold label with a key
printed on that label offering some sort of manual or something. I didn't
know what version it was at all. I just went into the store, picked it up
looked at the game info, paid for it and left. Went home and I tried to
install it. Oh well, this stuff happens.
Thanks for giving me the info.
