Is Titanium still available for purchase in stores?

[Xynta]

Last year I ran across all my old EQ boxed games, along with my map and quest binders, and the figurines that came with the Kunark expansion pack. Thinking I'd never play again, I tossed it all out [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Are there any stores that still sell it? Am I able to download the game from the Daybreak site?

You should be able to check eBay or Amazon.
Ironically, when I went to install EQ the other day on this computer all I had were my Planes of Power, Titanium, and Gates of Discord disks... I lost my original one. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Sorry you tossed It 8/ when I was throwing stuff away a few years ago I had found my titanium CD's which is what had set me on the path to reminisce and eventually research/google project 99.

as Mitchell said; ebay or amazon is really the only legit way to purchase a copy now-a-days. Of course, their are other (technically illegal?) alternatives to getting a digital copy of EQ titanium... But, im not sure how the community or staff feel about that; so you'll have to cross that bridge on your own, so-to-speak....

In an old "keep sake" box of mine somewhere I know I still have the old cloth map, and the Troll action figure... and if I recall correctly, a Mage pet figurine?? I never bought the toys directly, if I recall correctly they came with the game... I was maybe 13 or 14 back then, so its a bit foggy. I probably have the original kunark Prima Strategy Guide in that old box too.

well crap. Now im feeling compelled to Find that damn box... and ill probably make a mess... 8P

Yes... I too have a keep sake box, although most of it is now gone as I just don't have sentimental value of a great deal of it anymore.

And yes, I believe on this forum we can only discuss ways to purchase EQ Titanium. All other ways of acquiring the game aren't being discussed here...

ahh yes, now that you say that, I exercised my google fu; and now I see the Blatant sticky at top of This thread.. Durr me..

So, to expand on the O.P.; their are only the big online stores (ebay/amazon) to purchase a used copy from; otherwise Im confident you will Not find a copy in a retail store.

If Cost is the main issue; maybe research local swap meets in your area? Would probably be the RNG gods shining upon you if you actually found a copy; but that would most likely be the least expensive copy to purchase... some of the large swap meets in my area have a few sellers with TONs of old pc games. Just a thought.

either that, or if you have any old RL friends who used to play with you; now would be a great time to call and catch up; shoot the breeze'n'whatnot 8P

In the end its a small price to pay... to buy Titanium, to get on free to play servers like P99.

I'm just fortunate enough to have kept my Titanium boxed set all these years.

I still have like five EQ2 boxes... Some were my brothers, from when he decided to give it a shot.

Thanks for the replies... I'll see what I can come up with this weekend.

TrungeP99 - the Titanium client isn't abandonware by definition, and Sony passed the copyright to Daybreak who now owns it. This project needs to remain clean for legal reasons involving how the client is obtained. This especially includes the project's hosted forum boards.

That said, if you already own a copy of Titanium it is NOT illegal to torrent a second copy under USA law entailing digital backups of your audio / video / software media. Everyone may have one digital or physical copy to protect the quality of their original, and the law affording this protection never once states that the copy must be created from your original. That makes a torrent download of the item perfectly legal, but only in that case.

A friend of mine torrented a copy of the WoW 1.12.1 vanilla client a while back and I kid you not, he got a letter from his ISP host provider to knock it off. He went full tilt in their face about the issue reminding them about the laws involving this and further reminded them that it's on their backs to prove he didn't legally own a copy of the game (which he did) before they should ever assert that he was breaking the law with his actions. He stopped short of saying he'd take legal action if they ever did it again. Anyway, they apologized (in person) at their office and dropped the issue.

I own the game too. i have purchased all of the expansion as cd's and online download purchases as they were newly released. All of my purchases are recorded online in my billing [You must be logged in to view images.

I only bit torrented it because my current computer doesn't have a DVD/CD player built in.
