My girlfriend bought Tradewinds, the disc, from Shockwave last year and it wouldn't work, though we have all the system requirements that it claimed we needed to play the game. She contacted them regarding this problem on numerous occasions via E-mail and received no responses from them. The game cost $20.00 plus s/h and it bugs me that we can't play the game...anywhere because it doesn't work! Try the game download at MSN games for yourself...if it works for you please let me know why it doesn't work on our computer.
