This
could be the last update of the site as, if things go
smoothly, we'll soon be online with the new one. We
want to say a big thank you to all the people
who believed in us and supported us over the years,
but then again, this project begun for you and for you
it'll continue for as long as we have free time to waste
;-)
I
suppose we'll see you all in the new site, then.

Ladies
and Gentlemen,
If
your name is included in our 'credits' section and if
you have send us your address, you should know that
your copy of the GameBase64 CD is already in
the mail and you will receive it shortly, a little before
it is officially released, as promised. We only ask
that you don't spread it any further before our official
release. As for the rest of our loyal visitors over
the years, don't worry, you won't have to wait much
longer before we go online with the new site and the
Gamebase Collection!
Just
for the record, there are 15800 entries in the
final released database, however 88 are missing
and 135 are known bugged entries. In addition
to that, there are 21400 SID tunes linked to
the database.
I
have to note here that we asked no money for postage
expenses or for the empty CDs, and ask you to consider
that there are 78 people listed in our 'credits' section.
I normally wouldn't mention this, but after the recent
verbal attack we received in our forum, this says a
lot about how money-oriented we really are.

Well,
what do you know! As I went to htmlize this ZZAP! review,
I realised that this game was not in Gamebase! Over
15000 games catalogued and this was not among them!
That's disturbing news to say the least :)
Anyway,
this game has never appeared in any collection but we
managed to locate an original at a 'boot sale' somewhere,
purchased it and converted it to disk (the original
was sold on tape only) for your benefit. We even had
it's SID tune extracted!
Sadly, it won't be included in our current release of
gamebase since it was uncovered too late, but it'll
be included in our first update -- whenever that may
be...
Bottom
line: Here's another game you don't have! :)

Seems like last week's prominent news item certainly
caught your eye :)
Anyway,
you'll be glad to know that the GameBase64 CD has at
last been created, although it is a beta. We are now
in the process of testing it and ironing out the bugs,
a procedure that is also occuring in our almost complete
new site. If things continue going as smoothly as they
currently are, the GB64 collection will be online by
September. That certainly would be something!
