Um... did you know that CTRL-Enter submits your post in Outlook Express?
Anyway, here's that link to the snapshots:
http://lee.flashref.com/
It's very incomplete. Since then, I've gotten:
Aliens
Arctic Fox
Captain Goodnight (Yippee!)
Choplifter / David's Midnight Magic Double Pack
Earth Orbit Stations (EOS)
Flight Simulator II
Ghostbusters
Music Construction Set
Ogre
I'm planning on building a decent site with snapshots (better than the
current ones), screenshots, history, etc. Anyway, hope that made ya' a
little more nostalgic. :) Almost as cool as the games are the old
catalogues inside the boxes. I love the old Lode Runner ads... and the
one-sheet Night Mission ad that comes with FS II.
Have a great week...
