All these retro history podcasts are great to listen to when drifting off to sleep. So relaxing. Another great podcast to follow is The Retro Hour.

Btw too Yar's Revenge is a classic, and I loved Raiders Of The Lost Ark on the 2600. Took me weeks to solve it. He was put under an intense time frame to produce ET. Many blame that game for contributing to Atari's downfall but truth is a ton of crap games had been flooding the market by third parties for a while, it was an aging machine being replaced by home computers with better technology, and a combination of all of that caused it. Nobody should judge anybody for making one dud when they had a lot of successful projects.

I don't understand why PCUAE manager has extra disk if you can't change the disk via the carousel. Jul 5, 2024 11:50:12 GMT
