… or was it case? The Chief never spoke very clearly in Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego.
After playing with Adlib Tracker in DOSbox a few weeks back, and rediscovering Wolfenstein 3D on the Wii’s homebrew channel, I checked out a few soundtracks and clips of old games on Youtube.. today I mounted my hard drive contents of Ye Olde 386 Days into DOSbox and off we went.. Pinball Fantasies really is one of the best pinball sims ever.
If there’s anyone else who gets a fuzzy feeling when hearing (in no particular order) “Lotus 3”, “Jazz Jackrabbit”, “Wolfenstein 3d”, “Prehistorik/Moktar/Blues Brothers”, “Halloween Harry”, “Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis”, “One Must Fall 2097”, “Civilization”, “Epic Pinball”, “Stunts”, “Boppin”, “Doom”, “Blake Stone”, “Duke Nukem 2”, “LSL/*Quest”, “Rise of the Triad”, “Galactix/Raptor”, “Screamer”, “Test Drive 2/3/Grand Prix Unlimited”, “Carmen Sandiego”, “Wacky Wheels”, “Winter/Summer Challenge”, “The Lost Vikings”, “Red Baron”, “Transport Tycoon”, “Prince of Persia 1/2” or “Lemmings”, we should maybe get together for a retro night/day/weekend 😉
I really like the Titus guy(s) … when you start their game after 2000 it throws a “YAYYY My game is still working in 2009! Programmed in 1992 on a 286 12MHz. Enjoy oldies!” 😀

I’ve been pondering about the best way to get a real pentium accessed remotely (vga+ps2+sound) because dosbox doesn’t always cut it with regards to speed, fading or ultra special demoscene/hax vga tricks…
