Re: eBay Haul Catalogue

They've all made it safely to Rob, who has the equipment to archive their contents. I hope to see them up here soon. I've asked him to prioritise the Tetris clone. ;-) Really amazing that the seller wasn't actually involved in distributing the software back in the day. He had just simply bought almo...

Does Anyone Have... Gorden Bennet?

The version in the archive doesn't seem to want to work on xRoar for me...

Is there a working version around?

eBay Haul Catalogue

I snagged a whole bunch of Dragon 32/64 5.25" discs on eBay and collected them from just outside London yesterday. Having gone through them this morning, I am attaching a plain text file cataloguing them all. I can't actually load any of them at the moment because I don't have a disk drive but they ...

Re: 3D Deathchase for the AMSTRAD

Ah thanks so much for this. I can't really understand why I didn't find it myself earlier. I definitely went to CPC Power and did a search for "deathchase" and it gave 0 results; and all the other links to it on the Internet were to CPC Zone, which apparently died suddenly a few years ago...! Not so...

3D Deathchase for the AMSTRAD

OK, bit of a wild stab in the dark here... The Dragon version of this game is preseved here on Dragon Archive. However, the Wiki page mentions that it was ported from the Amstrad CPC version. The Amstrad CPC version seems to have been lost to the sands of time with the demise of CPC Zone. Does anyon...

Flagon Bird mentioned in this week's Micromart

Just letting you know that, as part of my column Retro Round Up, I gave a shout out to Flagon Bird this month. The guys at Micromart got the caption on the screenshot wrong unfortunately but the review made it.

The Dallas Quest

I was wondering something... I just stumbled upon this video on YouTube... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJg8cs8Z3Gw As a big Dallas fan in my youth, is it possible to take a game like this and convert it for the Dragon? The Dragon User magazines seem to suggest that it *is*, and that certain opco...

Re: Sir Leapin' Lancelot (Anik)

Wow, that really is a contender for one of the worst games I have ever had the misfortune to play...! ;-)

Nice to have it archived nonetheless...

Sir Leapin' Lancelot (Anik)

Hi there,

A nice guy sent me an mp3 file of this game. I have uploaded it here:

http://www.acornelectron.co.uk/sir_leaping_lancelot.mp3

Could someone convert this to a WAV and a CAS file for all to enjoy please?

(Please give the link at least 15 mins from time of posting to upload!)
