Let's Play Police Quest 2 part 1: vengeance in the air

[Zero254]

The japanese version of this game got raped. Take a look at it.

[assfax]

Jesus Christ. I'm up at the door wondering why in the hell I can't open it and my keys were still in the goddamn ignition? I usually don't leave them in once I get out.

[SamonMarquis]

The most points I ever got in this game was 220 -- keep in mind, that was in the days BEFORE the internet, when one can simply go online to find hints.

[pattypopping]

Bobby, I love your work..so nice there are people besides me who played the games.

[Akaalis]

oh man, Warcraft, Wolfenstein 3-d, The Abyss, those were the days

[KiethSomataw99]

Can you do a playthrough for the game Police Quest: The Death Angel in the original typing form and post it on youtube?

[hsuehhs]

Can you do Police Quest 3?

[PhantomJerad]

@hsuehhs Yeah can you Please?

[Diamondfist1]

I love how you were going to search for evidence, and then remembered that you were in your car! Great laughs and fun! You know you're not supposed to narc on yourself! Nice video, by the way.

[KiethSomataw99]

I wonder if you could make the video Let's Play Police Quest 1 Original in as amny parts as it takes. I'm talking about the old typing version rather than the VGA version, which you already did. You can have commentary on that video.

[AMReese]

How come your commentary makes me think of Bob Ross? You're so chill.

[piajeno]

(For me) the intro sounds better on the pc-speaker :o)

[tjdrummerguy]

awe

[MrStantonP]

Wait, wait!! Can you read that last line again? I don't speak english...

[BobbySummers]

I said, "I'll stop the video here, and I'll catch you later!" I usually end my videos with "Later."

[hsuehhs]

Can you do Police Quest 3?

[loomp]

I use DosBox to play all the old Sierra games on the newer PCs and Laptops in Windows XP and up,which allows the use of USB gamepads for better controlling your character over the keyboard,(I prefer the NES controller)and use of Windows MIDI drivers like Wingroove in conjunction with the MT-32 MIDI set in the game's option over the SoundBlaster option set here in this Let's Play for better music.

[funkymonk2k8]

I tried to use DosBox.

I got confused and gave up. Lol, looks like ill just be looking at lets plays....

[loomp]

@funkymonk2k8

go to the Sierra help pages and the have a program the make icon links in Star menu that requites no typing or setting up DosBox just click the icons and play the games.

[mpt156]

your are so funny i use to play this game when i was a kid where did you get it and would it work on windows xp let me konw

[aceyspadey]

you can get it from home of the underdogs and just need to get a dosbox to run it... AWESOME GAME....

[notapplicable66]

Sonny while single has a vette, soon as he gets hooked up with Marie he gets a practical car. And so is the story of life. LOL!!

[kabfik]

I would prefer the walkthrough without the commentary, I found it very distracting and unnecessary.

[ArranoGris]

I used to play this game on my uncle's computer at my grandparents' house. It was a lot of fun but I never got past the park part.

[foch41]

Is there any way to play these old games on Vista?

[fitsnitpit]

Downloading dosbox works in many cases.

[MetalSanke]

Thats a catchy intro theme. sounds very cop show like!

[MetalSanke]

Apparently, Sonny traded in his Vette and it got sold to Pate.

[BeWaTer99]

Welcome back, dude! :)

[Kijikun]

Oh man, too bad they didn't remake this one so there was a flow in the way everything looked.

[Kijikun]

I wish you were doing PQ 3, I know LateBlt did one but there was no commentary.

[OOcloud36]

I am so hyped up for this!! This is one of my most favourite Sierra games. Tis AWESOME!!

[LateBlt]

Awesome! Thanks for starting this LP! Now hopefully people will finally stop asking me to do it. :)

[krumpkrumpkrumpkrump]

I'm glad you're doing this game that I never got a chance to play. I liked your first LP a lot!

[Crowley9]

In the original Police Quest 1 Sonny had black hair, he is blonde in this one and reddish-brown in 3 and the VGA remake of 1. I do not know any other game main character who dyes his hair as much. At least outside games that let you customize your appearance to hell and back.

[LateBlt]

Well, bear in mind, he dyed his hair blonde near the end of PQ1. Maybe the blonde hair from PQ2 was just residual from that. The hair color in PQ3 would probably be his "true" hair color, as renderable for the first time in 256 colors, and which was rounded off to black in the 16-color engine of PQ1.

[BobbySummers]

I was going to mention that this game takes place a year later, but then I remembered Laura is the Gremlin, and she's the one who provided the bleach. Giving Sonny super strength hair bleach that lasts over a year seems just about right!

[BobbySummers]

One character I can think of is in the Lucasfilm game Zak McKracken. One of the girls on Mars has a different hair color every time she takes off her helmet. If you do it enough I think she goes through the whole 16 color spectrum except for her skin color.
