As the title states, I have and can provide old games if you need them. I've seen some people asking (in older threads) for certain things and I have my game library hosted on my cloud service. I didn't see any rules posted (unless I'm just blind) towards this so if need be I'll understand if this thread gets taken down.
I started archiving my older stuff back in 2003 when I started to understand the IP battles of certain titles. So I have copies of original discs of Mechwarrior 2/Mercs, Mechwarrior 3/PM, the Mech 4 collection, Descent, Starcraft, and a few other things. Most of these I still hold original discs for so if you need a specific type of rip let me know. I also have a ton of other titles in my library. Anybody who wants access just PM me or reply here with a want for a PM. I won't post a link publically for a reason (as it stands my poor FTP server gets hammered by spam China IPs constantly).
Since I'm new here I guess I'll take the time to introduce myself as I prefer small online communities over hoards like Reddit or large forums. My name is Cory and I've had the PP Mguire handle since I was a teen (friends just call me PP as silly as it is). I've been a PC gamer since I was 5 and my first PC game I played was Descent when it came out (that kinda dates me). After I barely finished Descent on Rookie my dad had purchased Mechwarrior 2 since he was a huge Battletech fan (I played that on Commodore 64 but don't remember much at all). My love for these 2 titles is pretty strong and it's a shame there was such a huge IP conflict with them, then again as it's my luck another strong love is Stalker and we know what happened there too. I'm pretty damn excited to play MP Mech 3 with you guys as I've never actually played MP on any Mechwarrior title before so a little PVP action sounds real fun or even a comp stomp I don't care (I don't think that's possible.....is it?). With my job it's unfortunate that I have to work weekends and my telecommute privilege was revoked after some drama happened between some senior members on the team. Our new team lead was appointed and I should be able to get that back but until then I have to sit and wait patiently while watching y'all talk about playing together lol. It's sad, but I've waited over a decade I can wait another couple weeks.
That being said I do have a pretty nice setup here server/internet wise. I have a plethora of hosted content that's available to friends and have occasionally hosted VMs for people to work on. If this peaks your interest don't be bashful.
Don't be afraid to add me on Steam if you want or Origin. Just search the ol PP Mguire handle and it should be there. PP_Mguire should be my PSN as I still hop on that from time to time. When I'm not reliving the better time of my life through older games I'm usually happily getting drunk with friends playing Rocket League, GTA V, or BF1.
I'm also quite in the know when it comes to PC hardware and server/enterprise stuff. If you need any help for anything or a recommendation you can post a thread here and I'll help or if you want to see some of my work on my other "home" you can always visit here. I'm always helping people put together gaming rigs getting them the best bang for their buck with an unbiased opinion so I'm more than happy to assist with that here if it's required. I know some people are pretty shy when it comes to online communities but small forums really aren't that much of an issue so I'm not really shy when it comes to questions.
