The quote I'm looking for is: "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should !" That's the quote that makes me want to punch Richard Attenborough in the belly so hard his glasses fall off. Of course, this is the old Grim Fandango, the one where LucasArts attempted to take the "point" out of "point-and-click." Why did they do it? What were they thinking? Well, I think this quote from Jurassic Park might sum it up: "I've been present for the birth of every single creature on this island! " Wait, wrong quote. The game will start in that little window, like magic! Know what I mean? Anyway, however you want to do it, find your GRIM folder and select it. Like, it thinks C:/ is the end-all-be-all of file locations. When it runs, you'll see a window with a button that says "Add Game." Click it, and navigate to the desktop GRIM folder you've been adding files to - OR - you may want to preemptively move the GRIM folder to an easier spot to navigate to, because it's one of those kinda archaic file browser things that makes it hard to browse to your desktop. Here is the download page for the various versions (remember, I'm using Windows 7 in this example) and I used the auto-installer to save a few steps. ResidualVM is the doohickey that will let you play Grim Fandango (and tons of other LucasArts games) on your modern PC. Step Three: Install ResidualVM and Put Grim Fandango Into It Don't run it, just download it and stick it into the same folder you put the. While you're dragging stuff into that folder, you'll also need download the official Grim Fandango patch. As you're moving those files, your computer will ask if it should copy/replace a couple things, or if it should not.
