personally I'm appaled at Vivendi for shutting this down, many people grew up with the King's quest games and it was going to be distributed for free as well as it is not even an active franchise. If you are just as upset as I am let VUGames know about it and send them an e-mail here. [email protected]

Glad to hear it! Kings Quest V or something game me nightmares as a kid, no joke. I hated that series to this day .

seriously, though, that sucks for all of those that were looking forward to it. I hate it when studios shut down games for no apparent reason.
