How many floppies did it take ...

[Deleted]

Huge game on 1 Floppy, ill never forget playing it and wondering how he fit it all on 1 disk.

David Braben's Frontier: Elite 2 (awsome game - made it to an MMO in the form of EvE, i believe?)

I remember Ultima VI having 5 or 6 3.5" floppies. Pretty sure Monkey Island was 4 floppies although I could be very wrong with that. Before 3.5" floppies, I also remember some games using only 1 5.25" floppies ... shogun, Montazumas revenge, hard hat mac, DONKEY KONG!!

Doom 2 : 4 floppies

Rise of the triad : 6 floppies ( i think)

wolf : 1 floppy
