It's Xmas
everyone. Let's all get under the tree and see what Santa has given me.
WoW! A Gamecube. Thanks. More Eggnog Lee? No I really shouldn't...oh go
on.
PeeknPoke
always does a Xmas Special and this year I have gone and looked back over
news and releases. Looking back over the years it looks like the news was
pretty slack which is a shame. Is emulation fading away? Where is all the
new stuff? Still we
got some right top games like StarFire plus lots of new updates of
constant emulators. So while I sit here under the tree rattling presents
and getting slightly full on mince pies here's what floated my boat in
2003. Merry Xmas everyone and all!
.....Gamebase64 finally reaches us
Ya boo! its
here alright after many moons of wait and the 2 CD set is pretty much the
best thing to come to the Commodore 64 since...well since Commodore Format
died. The very though of having thousands of C64 games on CD is great but
add the most comprehensive catalogue of any machine's software that PnP has
ever seen has had C64 fans clambering all over the net to get there copy.
Lucky for me I managed to get a copy off Gamebase64 staffers, John and
James, at BIT2003. If you ever wanted a C64 game it's most likely to be
here complete with cover scans, screenshots, SID music and even tap. files
so you can load the game just like the old days. Gamebase64 seems like
gold and it is. Hence another top rated software release this year.
