Here’s a neat php driven version of the old text adventure Zork! Cool! Although I’d rather play a good mud to be honest! (via)

Oooh, I want one of these joysticks! Each one has a C64 and 30 games in them! Games include Speedball, Pitstop 2, Eliminator, Paradroid, Cyberdyne Warrier…
Must load up Vice and give those games a blast again!
(via Look At This…)

Mark pointed out that DPNow reviewed the new book by Gordon Laing. It’s called “Digital Retro” and looks like a very interesting and nostalgic walk through the home computers of the 70’s and 80’s and talks to those who invented them and were the stars of the time!

Stumbled across Linus’ C-64 Site and C64.CH earlier. Nice, Crest released a few demos in the last couple of years!

It looks like Justin and myself have something in common. I coded all my C64 assembly stuff – demos, games and tools, using the Datel Action Replay. Actually, I still have it at home. It survived the binning of my C64 last year!
I still remember when I wanted to move a chunk of code from one area of memory to another I’d display the code on-screen, type the new address over the first line and hit RETURN over each of the following lines to renumber them.
Ah, them were the days!

yay! Loads of old games here! You can play them through a Java C64 emulator! Maybe I should setup something similar for the C64 demos? I can hardly imagine them working well enough although it looks like plenty of C64 features have been implemented!
/me goes to install the JRE!
