I dont have the cart but Bristles is a really fun game for those who havent tried it - catchy music which gets on your nerves quick!

Most 3rd party carts created for the 800 didnt fit easily into the 1200XL port - some needed to be 'shaved' to get in.

T-Bird, Having them burn a cd with an unlock code - how would that stop the - they could just publish the unlock code and bin.

I was just happy to see Atari release an Arcade coversion with more than 3 colors on the screen I enjoyed Food Fight when it came out!

I had Steve install it for me. PD Atari 800 OS has worked with everything I needed - why PD I dont know. Reverse Basic allows you to treat your XE like in an 800 such that Basic isnt installed by default. Therefore no more holding OPTION down . It also has the benefit of putting a Hot-Reset via SELECT+RESET. Nice job by STeve - Now if he could only work with Mr Atari and get the MyIDE boot stuff in there we'd be set!

Is Cubase for the ST still being supported? $250 for a dead program seems lame except for collectability.

AVP 2 on CD or Final Doom/Quake 1 on CD with ability to load custom levels Having an excellent 3D offering that oculd be expanded easily would be great. Otherwise we need a really good driving/sports game which the Jag is lacking.

I think they used a special compiler for the Jag which no one has or no one has been able to get running - I think Songbirds site has some info on it.

I recently bought this but didnt have time to play until yesterday. I think this is a pretty good title. Control on the classic mode is 'ok', but the 3D mode I think comes across pretty well. Esp with what other games were doing at the time. Anything interesting about this cart I should look for?

I put the Steven Tuckers WARP OS into my 130XE - it uses toggle switches to pick which OS to use (800, XE, XE no basic and WarpOS with enhanced disk speeds) No translator for me

Heres an OS you should swap it with: http://home.wanadoo.nl/mr.atari/hardware-info.htm Look for the new OS which claims 99% compat with 800 and XL/XE games

I always wondered how they did that handwriting logo - that must've taken alot of time to get it to track cursive lettering! Generate a new world and waste a day in 7 cities!

All good games and prob all distributed in large quantities - I dont see much rarity but there are worth their weight in gold playabilty wise (IMHO). 7 Cities of Gold was great - wish I had the time to waste 6 hours playing that again

The name is 'Phantom' - I think that says it all - a ghost machine.

I had a blast playing this game and is one of the few games my wife would play. If I had time I would still play this one today.

Mega4STe is what I would get - Someone was giving one away for free provided you take the rest of his ST equipment (you pay for shipping). It had a starter kit and everything else - check past msgs on this board for it. Otherwise a 1040ST or Mega2 ST would do the job.

I think all the other games had names different that their arcade counterparts - therefore they look and play the same but not the same name. Also, Space Invaders was a huge sucess, the other games people prob didnt even know about. and last but not least - Marketing 101 - take something with brand appeal and apply that to your product!

If you do post negative feedback - send MrRetro a URL to this site so he knows all of the Atari world knows his dealings

Did OIDS have a mono version? Brattacus was a pain but if you liked those type of games was a good one! There were alot of board/puzzle type games for mono IIRC, but been a long time since I last looked.

Can anyone point me to some 'FDISK' type software for my Mega2ST with TOS 1.4? Dont know if I can locate my original partitioning software

Dont forget the Civil War had many battles in PA - God of War in PA, yes sir!

Anything in particular I should look for when looking for a replacement? I prob will have to go through ebay to get an older one. Any size restrictions on these things - been awhile since I configured a HD on an ST.

Ok, It appears a few networking cards are available for the ST - check here: http://home.arcor.de/thomas.redelberger/pr...herne/index.htm and here: http://hardware.atari.org/ether/index.htm Neither one give alot of info and both require STiNG. I tried STiNG with my cart based networking card with limited success - Does STiNG work better with newer versions of TOS or does it provide full networking capability on a Mega2ST? Basically I want to know what software to utilize on my Mega2ST w/TOS 1.6 (I Believe, it could be 1.4 also) to do something more than FTP on my Windoze network. Any experts out there?

Folks, I bought a 40meg ICDFaST HD for my ST many moons ago - The HD is starting to act up and I was wondering if anyone knew what kind of drive I could buy to replace it - Were these SCSI drives mapped to the ST's DMA port or IDE or what????

With my Mega2ST I can only get FTP working. There are some possible options of hooking your ST into a Windoze network and see drives but I think you need a newer TOS than 1.6 like I have and possibly some more memory. Mine is a ethernet cartridge that was originally a 'parallel port' network card. Helped me back up my ST hard drive which was my main motivation, though with all the new stuff out I may use it to transfer disks
