Bought my copy from Amazon.co.uk and it has no .exe for windows, no way of running it. Should I be sending it back to Amazon or Mamba Games? I have emailed Mamba but havent recieved a response as yet.

The back side of the box says that there should be a Linux version on DVD, too. I have MAC-only version (second wave) and it is not there, so I hope that you won't forget to include Linux version alongside of Win and MAC versions to the final release  |

~and then~

I can understand that you're frustrated, MogalBogal. But we're just the Machinarium fan forum here. We're not Mamba! You wrote directly to Mamba and that's the way to go. So now just wait for them to get back to you. Look... they're obviously an honorable firm or this thread wouldn't even exist! (did you read through the thread as jst65 suggested? you didn't did you??   ) Hey, try not to worry so much... think about the circumstance you've found yourself in... Mamba is major player in the game industry, they just had a *major* f*up happen due to their duplication house... their representative just stated on an open forum that they're going to honor eBAY purchase replacement disks... don't you think they'll honor your Amazon purchase as well?? Just wait a bit longer, Mamba will get back to you! And please do let us know how things turn out. (and not just disappear like so many former posters have)  |

And please do let us know how things turn out. (and not just disappear like so many former posters have) Care to name names? =op My guess is that the majority of those former posters (including myself) are still waiting patiently for a replacement copy—or, in some cases, any copy—to be shipped to them, so, consequently, they can't quite let you know how things have turned out because, um, nothing has turned out yet. ;o) |

And *my* guess is that were you and the rest of our friends that felt they were short changed in the past to write to Mamba anew... you'd find full satisfaction therein.  |

I'm not sure why you are under the impression that people haven't been "writing to Mamba anew." (My last e-mail to them was on the 26th of March.) And I fail to see how e-mailing either Jason or Petro again now will have any effect whatsoever. So my point, again, is that there's really nothing to do but wait.

This is what I meant And please do let us know how things turn out. (and not just disappear like so many former posters have) And this is always a good point in a forum - regardless of the topic |

I guess this is a perfect example of that old joke, "When you 'assume' you make an 'ass' out of 'U' and 'Me'."  I'm just so used to people bitching and complaining on this forum without doing their due diligence before posting that I just lumped you into that crowd, Lamkin. Sorry mate. Anyway, I hope you hear back from Mamba soon. |

I wish I'd seen this thread before I ordered the game from Amazon (UK) on Sunday. My copy arrived today with no Windows .exe. I hope the moron who compiled these discs gets fired. I've sent Mamba an e-mail although I'm not sure what that will accomplish. I guess I'll just have to buy (again) it from Steam.

*sigh* Quite simply, what it will accomplish is that you will get a replacement copy shipped to you free of charge. Ok PV says Email him directly, is this on the original link? or is there another Email address?
Use the machinarium@mamba-games.com address. |
