Type-in games for the C64 in other mags
Posted: Sat Apr 19, 2008 4:29 am
Hi there,
I'm Neo-Rio from the Gamebase 64 team. As some of you may already be aware, our mission is to preserve a database of Commodore 64 games for the enjoyment of everyone. To that end, we hunt out every single Commodore 64 game possible - including type-in games from magazines and books, and I'm usually the one who spends his spare time typing them out.
I'm just curious which of the other mags contain C64 type-ins. We will probably get the C+VG and Commodore User mag DVDs because we're certain we don't have all the type-ins from those mags. Also I think we have scans of the type-in games from BigK and Commodore Horizons as well.
I've currently been working my way through the games from Computer Gamer (after lifting the scans from the world of spectrum ftp), and I've nearly completed all the games - with the exception of any games in issue 23. I have no idea if there were any game listings for the C64 in that issue (the listings from that issue were not uploaded to the ftp) -- but if there were, I'd be really grateful if the scans could be passed along. The more games I get done, the more games appear in the next update of Gamebase 64
Any other multiformat mags have C64 type ins?
Cheers,
