December 20, 2004 by ST Graveyard

I feel a bit like an ass here since this is the 3rd time this year we announce it, but atari-forum is back online.

Richard Davey managed to get his server secured, so lets hope this does the job. Thanks a lot for this, Rich!

It might be a nice christmas after all ;-)

Atari legend mini chat

December 16, 2004 by ST Graveyard

Hello,

We have a special little surprise which I hope you all will like. A little AL chat room has been build and can be accessed at the left menu bar. Make sure you are logged on to the site, and join in for some good 'ol chatting.

I still need to test it all, but you can only really do that when others join in, so if you feel like it, don't hesitate!

UPDATE! New version online. Bugs fixxxed for Firebird browser.

Cheers

Compare games with other versions

December 12, 2004 by ST Graveyard

News illustration image Hello all,

After the super release of the Jukebox today, we have another big surprice for you all.

Every ST fan remembers the great wars with the Commodore Amiga, back in the good ol' days. Well our new update is a big wink to those golden years. With the help of Kim Lemon from Lemon64 and Lemon Amiga, it is now possible to compare the ST version with their Amiga and/or Commodore 64 counterpart. Not all games are linked yet, but we'll be updating this weekly. At the moment 650+ games have a compare link. Just go to the game detail pages to find the "vs" links, if they are available.

Enjoy this great feature and ... Stay Atari!

AL Jukebox

December 12, 2004 by Silver Surfer

News illustration image perihelion has been working hard together with the Atarilegend team to realize the year old dream of an AL jukebox. We shamelessly stole the graphical interface of Grazey's awesome UMD8730 muzak demo and therefor it looks quite good. (Big thanks to Grazey - Download his fantastic UMD8730 now) Click the link on the left saying ”Jukebox” and take it for a test spin. You will find cirka 530 game music files in there today, hopefully that amount will increase over time. If you have music files to submit please get in touch with us and we will try and put them online.

And don't worry, the soundfiles will also become available from the games detail pages at one point in time!

Random review

I wouldn't call dungeon master my favourite ST game, because I find the dungeon environment quickly tiring, but it is certainly in my top 10 for sentimental reasons if nothing else. It has entertained me enough to still be thinking about it 20 years on, and I believe that the best epitaph I can write is...

Did you know?

Did you know that there are some love messages in the TOS ROMs of the ST? In fact you can find the strings "Dave StaUgas loves Bea Hablig" and "JIM LOVES JENEANE" in all TOS ROMs with version number 1.xx and 2.0x!
