I'm not 100% sure, but from what I've heard & seen, Tempest Xtreme is a port of Tempest 2000 - a different game with far more memory available for it. (1Mbit?) 5200 Tempest will be the coin-op port we wanted back in the day, with GAME SOUNDS as our accompaniment. tempest xtreme is based on the unfinished 5200 game Tempest Xtreem is a mixture of the original Tempest with elements of Tempest 2000, including music, speech and some game play elements. ok but was it based on the 5200s Tempest code or not ?

shame i've already got all but atari tris

replacing the video chip and a good heatsink fixes this

we don't need it, with all the possibilities of the ataimax utimate sd cart -up to 512k + streaming data from card!- if i want sio2sd then i turn to the Xegs

still the best is combat...

want 1

guess it's not available anymore, no responses...

it it still available?

longhorn's 2600 video mod looks way cleaner than it's 7800 one

is there a way to expand the XeGS to 320 k ? external / internal ? want to play bombjack !

uIEC/SD is so slooooooooow So it emulates a 1541 then yes , too closely for my taste

Bigger Size ... still have a spare room for it !

uIEC/SD is so slooooooooow

works just fine in my NTSC C64. some features have timing issues on ntsc systems it's made on pal computer for pal c64s mainly

This is reason why I don't play on C64/VIC20 too much - it's hard to get something there. I'm using 1541-II connected to P1 MMX machine with XE1541 cable and star commander. It's not really fast but it works - but you need 2 floppy drives and still it's not something like SIO2PC, but it's cheap 1541 ultimate II works as good or better -more options- than sio2sd but its very expensive Yeah, that's the problem - I've got C64 and 2 floppy drives donated so I don't want to spend much money on it - still preffer Ataris Also isn't there problem with demos/games/etc. with speedloaders? iirc if the drive isn't emualted in lowlevel then it doesn't work. you need a pal c64 for 1541 ultimate 2, but if you have one, works like a charm with it emulates fast loaders, runs carts , includes 16mb ram expansion reads tap , reads prg, includes sid player, demo player .and of course .d64 -though these are bit slow- your eyes won't believe it's a c64 when you run some movies using the expansion -something that yet can't be done on the 8bit- and of course running 12000+ games and geos does not hurt either... but its around 190us$ and a lot of waiting for half that you can get Ide 64, with the same constrains of all A8 ide units, you jus't cant play ALL games on it, some of them are not 1 file only , and need conversions from disk

so let's just hope it can be controlled well then...

just need 2 more atari 5200 carts Atari tris Bristles contact me if you have one of those

I never had a problem with the DINA's audio, aside from the faint static that sometimes came through with the poor RF signal. And that's a fault of the RF box, not the audio itself. As for the BIOS, couldn't you just pull the BIOS out of a Coleco and stick it into a DINA though (with much desoldering/resoldering, of course)? I don't have a Ultimate SD cart and don't plan on getting one, so that's a nonissue for me. I wonder why it won't work with the DINA BIOS though; my understanding is there are no Colecovision cartridges that are incompatible in and of themselves, only games rendered unplayable by the keypad-on-console scheme or the inability to use special controllers. bios is incompatible so ultimate sd cart crashes, as some new hombrews the static in sound is present even after modding the thing

i need Atari Tris...

could it scroll as smooth as adventure island Nes on the 7800?
