I still have troubles with regular Tic Tac Toe... Regards, Rasty.-

Anyone noticed that in arcade games cabinets the stick is (almost) always placed to the left? Regards! Rasty.-

I always love such pieces of history, thanks for scanning! Regards, Rasty.-

If you can get to try a new power supply and it still doesn't work, you may want to try and change the RF cable.. it worked for me once on my woody...! But I agree getting a new 2600 is the quickest route! Ciao, Rasty.-

Besides Combat playing on single player, I hope one day I'll be able to finish Pitfall and ROTLA! Regards, Rasty.-

Mine has been sold, but at least my dad got a C64 just after Sometimes I'm a bit sad since it was in perfect condition, as I use(d) to keep all my stuff.. but I just had a bunch of games and I'm not going to miss them! (especially that ugly game in a blue case with a handle... could never stand it ) Regards! Rasty.-

Why, renting the E.T. DVD of course.. Actually a big factor that manages to keep my attention on Atari is the great community! Regards, Rasty.-

- Slot Machine! (j/k) actually - Phoenix (always liked the arcade version, but now I like the 2600 one more!) Regards! Rasty.-

Hello everyone! Long time no hear :wink: I'm still alive even thou I've been driven a bit on the side of Atari development during the last few months, but I'm still positive this is a temporary situation, as I do deeply want to resume my beloved coding activities.. given someone will still want to check my games by then :wink:! Anyway back on topic: I've been kindly pointed to this thread which I've just finished reading, but as Albert mentioned I was already aware of the situation. My position is always the same: last I've heard from Randy is when he shut down his website telling me he'd stop his business. This, to me, means no more selling carts, online or offline. I never explicitly asked him to stop selling Space Treat (I didn't want him to stop before), but this for me was implicit when he declared his business over. I knew he had some remaining stock, and I wouldn't care if he'd sell it. Of course that would imply he'd sell it under the same conditions as before, which means paying the royalty. But there wasn't too much stock left IIRC, and wouldn't have complained if he "forgot" to notify me of new royalties (as happened). Now, I don't know if, contacting Randy, he'd simply notify me of my credit and offer to pay (which could very well be). I never contacted him again. But I still wouldn't have a problem unless he didn't start selling Space Treat Deluxe, which I never authorised him to. Note that I would very well have let him keep manufacturing all of my games, probably along with AA, before he "shut down his business". But since there's no business anymore, I assume you're not selling my games, and much less the new ones you've never got permission to! I don't think my assumptions are wrong, therefore I don't think Randy has the right to sell Space Treat Deluxe. I would also be unhappy if he produced more Space Treat carts other than the initial unsold stock.. This saddens me, since I never had a problem with him when he was in business (ahem), actually he went throu a lot to produce my game, and I've been very happy. But if you're telling me you quit business and that's not true, I can't feel comfortable with it! At least contact me, if you want to keep selling!!!! That's not hard... I think it should be him contacting me first. Ok, this message came out quite bigger than I expected.. hope you got the picture of my situation! Also, I promise I won't write the word "business" for a few days now Regards! Rasty.-

Thanks, I'm really happy you liked it so much :wink: The actual 2600 version is also slightly faster than the emulated Anthology one, so be ready for an increased challenge Regards! Rasty.-

Hi! I'm sorry but for the moment there's no new version in the works This of course doesn't mean the project is dead. I'm simply busy with other things, and dont' know when it will be resumed! When that time will come, I'll post here Thanks for the support and ciao! Rasty.-

Hi everyone! I haven't vanished, just been really busy with work During this time of coding-inactivity, I've been thinking about ways to improve my game and what to put in it next. I sometimes get stuck mostly because I'm not sure on which direction I should progress Now I feel I've made my ideas a little more clear, hope to find the time to clear my mail backlog and resume coding as soon as possible! I really miss it!! Thanks for the support and ciao! Rasty.-

Uhm... did you realize that they both show exactly the same? ... time and score! Regards! Rasty.-

Hi Thomas! That's great!! Yes the game feels indeed a bit easier now, just got to the 4th level for the first time. But that's a very good thing IMO, since the incresed easyness comes from a much more responsive control, making the game even more fun! Maybe as a consequence, you could make the difficulty level increase a bit faster..? Thanks for the update and ciao! Rasty.-

Woo.. that Metal Gear Solid Substance for XBox looks interesting.. too bad Circuit City doesn't seem to ship abroad (they only list US states in the pulldown combobox) Oh well.. Regards! Rasty.-

Thanks for the link, the games' great! Quite hard to control the ball compared to SMB, but still very fun... Regards! Rasty.-

Just scored like Columbus: 1492 (at level 3) The game's also great during phone calls thanks to its 1-handed controls.. woo! Regards, Rasty.-

Very nice read, thanks for sharing! And it looks like that Kind of the Mountain game could have been pretty fun.. too bad it never made it to the shelves Regards! Rasty.-

A d d i c t i v e ! Regards! Rasty.-

Whats that exactly? Camera backs up and shows the crash in replay?? It's a game mode that requires the player to do as much damage as possible! Great game... !! Regards, Rasty.-

Eyetoy has been out for a while here, and I actually own one! If you like rythm games, Eyetoy is a good thing to have. It's also great for parties! Regards, Rasty.-

Congratulations indeed! Carnival is a game I really like.. too bad the score rolls at 100k so it's a pain to keep track of it Regards! Rasty.-

Hi Aaron! Sure I'd be interested as an author! Let us know.. Regards! Rasty.-

You can always install Linux in a VMware virtual machine on your pc, without need for partitioning or danger of screwing up your pc Out of curiosity, can you still play games on the XBox after installing Linux? Regards! Rasty.-
