svenski Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Missile Command, again, has that beautiful old artwork... I extracted the JPG's, and the front page makes for a great desktop wallpaper!! Again, great resolution at 2500x3300! BTW for scan-fans: Have you seen the new Page 6 magazine collection (scans) over at AtariMania? Looking forward to any more stuff you might have! Yep, great to see all the Page 6 issues online. I lost track of Page 6 toward the end but it has been great to go through the mags. Strangely I found that I'd not only forgotten what issues my articles had appeared in but also which articles I'd written! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThumpNugget Posted May 2, 2011 Author Share Posted May 2, 2011 This is a 50 page issue of "Computer Gaming World" from 1986. The magazine was in pretty bad shape so it has been Photoshopped some to make it more presentable.

ThumpNugget Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) The manual for "paperclip" word processor which I always thought was done by Russ Whetmore but judging from the cover I am clearly wrong. 172 pages, a bit large.. I left the previous owners handwriting (back page and a couple of the notes pages) as I thought they were amusing This could probably be shrunk by about 80% without much difference in the quality...

ThumpNugget Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 (edited) Gog Daze 1.1 from APX .. So why is this the only game released that has a version number? Not only a version number but a fork of a version number with a "Rev" in front of it? Was there an 1.0 that had a really bad bug so they were compelled to fix it and make sure everyone was aware?

ThumpNugget Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 Here are three from "LotsaBytes" .. Somewhat rare The Stonequest docs are the same ones used at AtariMania. I rescanned them as the first time around I was a bit sloppy. LotsaBytes was a pretty small operation so the docs are not the fanciest.
