Good game
Bad games, Have'nt got a clue.
But why sod the disk up with a protection in that way.
Why can't I make a back up disk.
In my opinion, good game, worst marketing ploy.
Otherwise games bore me to bits. ( most probably cos I cant program them)..
Anybody prepared to

Some weeks ago somebody said Parallax, Vegetable Vacation, or
FutureBall.

Anybody prepared to teach me how to program a game. I have some Ideas but
no
Idea where to start. Z80 code please.
Mmm... how about: try writing a shoot-em-up, where all of the sprites and
game logic sit in the top 8k

Its a shame nobody did a conversion of Daley Thompsons Super Test (or
whatever) for the Sam.. I missed being able to knacker my joysticks (3
in total).. it was kinda comical when the handle dislodged itself and
you carried on wiggling for a while before realising...

PS . Can I assume that a new Sam can't be bought, seeing as nobody has
bothered to answer my query.
I could do with one to modify, but don't want to knacker the one I have. Its
given nearly 10 years good service and I'm not prepared to rip it apart and
re-modge

There is a version in 512 sectors somewhere ( so i Have been told :) )

You can if you know how :) ( and i'm not getting into that argument again )

If you have two SAMs but don't wish to run them at the same time, I'll
make
you an offer for the spare power supply. Though Bob Brenchley has been really
nice and
sent me a new power supply - SAM lead

You're right - I don't think I ever bought a game due to it's demo.
In the days before multimegabyte game demos, I'd read the game review first,
play the demo if one was available, THEN buy it. ISTR various reports for the
ECTS this year saying that the
I remember wanting to buy Atomic Robokid after playing the demo on a YS
tape... I was hooked on it from playing it on an Arcade machine. Even
though the demo was slow, I was hoping the full release was faster - it

I think the PS2 will crush thee opposition anyway. It was always going to.
Because:
a) It will let you watch DVD stuff.
b) It's backward compatible with the original PlayStation.
c) I like the look of the casing.
Whether it will cope with the future developments of Nintendo and Sega -

The casing is very Sinclair-ish, isn't it?
