Trebor Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 (edited) Not my work. Nevertheless, quite possibly the most amazing thing you will ever see and/or hear from the 2600. Video playing on the real deal available here: Main site here: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=31535 Image attached here: 3lb_tj.zip -Trebor Edit: Oh yeah...And it's only 4K.

Impaler_26 Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Yeah, another demo from the wAMMA guys who now call themselves "Trilobit" as it seems... And like their previous demos it's great! I especially like the music in this one, it comes pretty close to C64-quality ! It also works fine in z26. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moycon Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 That was cool. It kind of reminded me of this... http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?s...074&hl=core Are they by the same person? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Why the name TOM / JONES? I was expecting to see some overweight Vegas performer.. "Woah woah woah she's a ladddyy!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmarque Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Not my work. Nevertheless, quite possibly the most amazing thing you will ever see and/or hear from the 2600. Believe me, you'll see even more amazing things in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirantho Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Well that's 4K that's got a date with my Cuttle Cart II.... Though I'd really like to run it on my H6er so maybe I'll burn it to a ROM instead. Verrry impressive. Though you probably need to be a coder (like me!) to realise just how impressive it is!

Rom Hunter Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Amazing. It reminds me of the good old C64 demo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visyli Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Why the name TOM / JONES? As the theme of the demo is love, we decided to name this demo after an epitome of love, that is, Tom Jones Also the way of spelling it TOM/JONES is a sort of tribute to Fairlight's C64-demos (WE/LASER, WE/BANANA etc.) as the design is very much influenced by Fairlight's style. And as ilmarque said, there's still more to come. You ain't seen nothing yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Why the name TOM / JONES? I was expecting to see some overweight Vegas performer.. "Woah woah woah she's a ladddyy!" The tune is for the song Sex Bomb by Tom Jones and Massive Attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mos6507 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Awesome for 4K. I can't believe how good you can get music to sound on a 2600. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siudym Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) Music sounds great. I launch demo on my 2600 clone only for listen that music Edited August 22, 2007 by siudym Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2600Lives Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Yeah! This was the song they used for the 3rd season opener of Robot Chicken during the Gyro-Robo News Hour bit. I was trying to figure out where I'd heard it from, and that's it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Yes RAMBO :] I have three, every slightly different. Mine is a Darth Vader with 256 built-in games. What are the differences between yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siudym Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) Two have 128 games build in, third (black, very similar to org. a2600) have 196 games (two roms on board - 512KB and 64KB). I dont know names, i think all must be "RAMBO's" (very popular in my neighbourhood) Edited August 23, 2007 by siudym Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Mine has Rambo embossed into the bottom of the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmarque Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Yeah! This was the song they used for the 3rd season opener of Robot Chicken during the Gyro-Robo News Hour bit. I was trying to figure out where I'd heard it from, and that's it! Newsflash: tom/jones was released before that episode of Robot Chicken was aired. ...and besides, they don't even sound alike.

wrenchien Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 it sounds pretty good from what little i heard of it... thank you. keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2600Lives Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Right, it was released before the episode aired...so that's likely why they used it, as it had already been released... And yeah, they do sound alike. Quite a bit, in fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
