Curt Vendel Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Has anyone (Like Glenn the 5200 Man) ever ported the 5200 version of Pac Man to the A8? I was playing Pac Man yesterday on my XL and its rather disappointing to get through the boards without the intermissions, kinda boring without them.

Rybags Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 (edited) Atarimania has the Datasoft and US Gold releases - they supposedly have the intermissions. /goes off to check it out. Ed: yep - first intermission occurs after completion of the second stage. Edited October 1, 2007 by Rybags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Some Atari versions have the intermissions (some have altered sounds and an animated title screen too). Try these: PacMan.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artlover Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Atarimania has the Datasoft and US Gold releases - they supposedly have the intermissions. Datasoft/Rushware versions are not downloadable. Only the Atari, USGold and Zong versions. Zong...Someone liked 2600 pac-man enough to port it to the 8bit.....

www.atarimania.com Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 The Datasoft, US Gold and Rushware versions are the same anyway apart from the tape loader on the European releases. -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmel_andrews Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 The USG version IS the Datasoft version (or rather the other way round) what you might be thinking of the the orig. Atari inc version and the USG/Datasoft deal There is i think a slight difference betw. the Atari inc. version and the datasoft/usg version (it revolves around the title screen) Just like the difference betw. the datasoft and atari version of pole position is the air baloon that scrolls by before the race starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
