Revenant under Virtual PC 2004

Friday, Friday, Friday. Time to play games on Friday :-). Today we will be looking at Revenant (https://www.eidosinteractive.com/games/info.html?gmid=37) - an Action / Adventure game where you play the role of an ancient dead warrior, revived as a Revenant in a time and place you do not understand. It is your job to defeat a sinister religious cult - and at the same time try to remember who it is that you were and why you were chosen for this mission. All in all this is a very nice game, and quite fun to play. The problem is that it is requires Windows 95 / 98. It will run under Windows XP - but no amount of coaxing will get the sound to work (not even using compatibility mode). Thankfully - Virtual PC comes to the rescue - where Revenant runs perfectly under Windows 98, sound and all:Revenant under Virtual PC 2004
