Somebody knows games list no compatible with atari 800xl like demon attack

Recommended Posts

Well,

 

the A8FAQ is your friend: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/faqs/atari-8-bit/faq

- subject 7.1.7: What programs run only on the 400/800 (not the XL/XE) and why ?

 

Besides an explanation, it contains two links to Fandal`s webpage showing programs that require either OS-A or OS-B:

http://a8.fandal.cz/search.php?search=OS-A&butt_details_x=x

http://a8.fandal.cz/search.php?search=OS-B&butt_details_x=x

 

Luckily, Homesoft has already patched/fixed a dozen or so of these programs to work alright with XL/XE computers (and is still fixing more programs)... http://www.mushca.com/f/atari/index.php

just click on the search button "latest added" and you will see lots of disks that have been updated with fixed versions... (e.g. MASH, Timebound, Blackjack, Seachase, Shoot, Pool 400, Renaissance, Fast Gammon, etc.).

This AA topic lists some incompatible games and even includes some fixed ones:

This topic also has some fixed games:
