Re: It's worse than that

that IS quite extreme comparing a £175k house purchase with a £40 game purchase, talk about clutching at straws. Some people (ok, a lot of people) need to get a life. It looks amazing, I'm a long term Eve player and this looks like a pretty good challenger/compliment, so I might even buy it, just to annoy the fanbois

Running the Gauntlet: Atari's classic ... now and then

"Red Warrior all your powers will be lost!"

I discovered a "cheat" on the Atari ST version whereby if you pulled the disk out while it was loading and then put it back in straight away it would corrupt the room layout and you'd end up with a completely random room, blocks all over the place, sometimes rooms full of potions and food, other times rooms full of deaths. Very rarely was there an exit, at which point you would have to reboot and start again, but it was worth the agro if you got a mega room.

Nostalgia. Can't wait to have a go on this reboot!
