Just to irritate all the youngsters out there, a couple of Ultima questions
 1. Which was the first Ultima designed especially for the PC (all earlier ones being developed first for the Apple)? 2. Which Ultima featured a party for the first time? |

Well, ya blew the first one, Xen; it ws Ultima VI that was on the PC.
However, you were right on the second one: Ultima III featured a party of 4, where the previous games had been solo outings. SO, you're up next. |

I know, Betelgeuse, but I played all Ultimas from II -> VIII (in order) . I remember that Ultima V had 5 or more disks for the C64 and you often had to wait minutes for a new dungeon to load ( haven't finished it therefor ). But I bought my first PC that time and I immediatly bought U5 to play it in an acceptable speed.
But that was a long time ago and I'm old, so maybe I'm wrong  .[img]graemlins/monster5.gif[/img] |

All Ultimas through V were personally designed by Lord British for the Apple, with later ports to other platforms. Ultima VI was the first designed-for-PC game, and a strange experience it was, since the graphics were all new and the world was now one size.
Anyway, I'll post a couple new questions tonight if Xen hasn't shown up by then. |

Now to the game trivia. In this game you were a robot. You could go around, grab people/cars and throw them in another robot.
