Heavy Gear
Greetings all,
First I would like to thank you guys for the wonderful work you have done. This website has allowed me to play games that I adored as a child such as Silent Service, Ultima, Ghostbusters, Gauntlet, Might and Magic, and Wing Commander. I am requesting that a DOS-Box version of Heavy Gear be made, it was an amazing game but I have not been able to find a playable version and wonder if the Community would be interested in tackling this project. I will provide what little information I can find about this title below: Heavy Gear Activision Mech Sim Release: Oct 31, 1997 http://www.gamespot.com/pc/sim/heavy...ry;read-review If you have any questions power here or PM me I will do my best to attain answers. |
I'm almost sure Heavy Gear was a purely Windows-based title.

OP should check this out, though: http://video-games.shop.ebay.com/Games-/139973/i.html?_nkw=Heavy+Gear&_catref=1&_fln=1&_mPrRngCbx =1&_sop=&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282 (Not commenting on the sold or not issue, just pointing in the direction of some cd's available somewhere. Looks like a copy can be had for about $4.) |

Although Heavy Gear isn't sold and is not protected by the ESA, Activision, believe it or not, still supports it. Need proof? Here's a copy of what they sent me in an e-mail in response to an inquiry regarding compatibility with Windows 7:

Heavy Gear - [STILL SUPPORTED] EDIT: Please ignore this reply - see reply #7 for the reason. |

After some internal discussion with other moderators, I have decided the support answer is 'canned' - that is to say, not legitamite proof of the developer still supporting the game. As Activision doesn't provide patches for this game - or any other kind of support for Heavy Gear, for that matter - I am revoking my rejection of the Heavy Gear game request. Therefore...
Heavy Gear - [APPROVED] |
