Re: need some games for my //c



> Also, how are the 80's arcade conversions like Ms. Pac Man on the //c?


Kevin,

Some of the translations are very well done, all things considered.

Here's a few of my recommendations for Arcade ports to the //c:

- Robotron: Pretty darn good port and keyboard too!!
- Dig Dug: Good port, plays music while you walk just like the original.
- Donkey kong: graphics are good, the music port is horrible and off key.
- Ms Pacman: as mentioned before is an excellent port!
- Joust:  A good port, well done.
- Frogger: Graphics are good and the game play is there!

Other recommendations for the //c:  (in no particular order)

- Ultima I, II, III, IV, V (role-playing huge and immersive)
- Drol (hard to explain, just try it - you'll like it!)
- Choplifter (Rescue hostages with your helicopter)
- Microwave (One of the first games to have music!)
- Star Blazer (Bomb the radar, and such - good graphics)
- Cannonball Blitz (Donkey kong rip-off)
- Bilestoad (Highly original top-down gladiator fest - with blood)
- Night Crawler (Centipede ripoff)
- Norad (Do you want to play a game?)
- Raster Blaster (Bill Budge pinball)
- Snakebyte (Eat the apples and avoid the plums)

If you can find no one else to do this, let me know and I'm sure I
can whip something up for you.  You'd have to supply the floppies
though as I only have a few kicking around for doing ADT transfers
with.  Other than that I use 3.5" and the CFFA card as a psuedo
Hard Drive on my //e ...

Hopefully this helps some!
