Klove Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Ok Gang, this is it.... THEE very last call for Homebrews. After today, we will not be taking in anymore Homebrews for inclusion in the EDM version of Anthology. So far I have Dennis, Greg, Thomas, Fabrizio, Eric, Paul, Joe and Brian on-board. I'll be emailing that team later-on this afternoon with a Status Update. If anyone else wants to get in on the action, please let me know by the end of the day. I need to get evaluate your games and get 'em to the team asap. Hope to hear from ya'll soon!

Jess Ragan Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Any chance you could slip in my hack of Kaboom! (starring Osama bin Ladin and appropriately titled Kabul!) as a joke? JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klove Posted April 22, 2003 Author Share Posted April 22, 2003 Heya Jess! I'm afraid there's NO POSSIBLE way that would ever happen. :-/ "Sorry." - Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 You should see about Vault Assault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xot Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 You should see about Vault Assault Hear, here! A truly kick-ass game... I play this ALL THE TIME!!! Which homebrew titles are 'in the running' at this point? Admittedly I can't mentally match up all the first names with their games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubersaurus Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Judging from that list, you've got most of the really good ones...but I'd really suggest Oystron. The programmer for that isn't on your list, and lets face it, that game rocks. Just a suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xot Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Looks like Warring Worms won't be making the cut either... that's too bad. I really enjoy that one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xot Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 So are both Thrust and Jammed! being considered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Is there any realistic idea when this might be released? I really liked Activision Anthology and I am sure that this is going to be just as fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Atari Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 I made a hack of Xenophobe that's closer to the arcade version, you want that? (Just kidding, I know you only want genuine homebrews, though if you'd seriously consider my hack, I'll send it to you). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Nathan Strum Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 "Your wish is granted." Look for the EDM on PC, Mac and GBA shortly. Woo hoo! A Mac version! Thanks!! (A GBA version is also cool... I may have to pick up a GBA SP now.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 I'm trying to imagine playing Thrust+ on a GBA now, after all this talk about emulating the Atari on a GBA in the first place, and I have to admit even though I still want the emulator this thought makes me crack a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 I made a hack of Xenophobe that's closer to the arcade version, you want that? I would like to see that. Give it to Al so he can put it in the hacks section. Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Vendel Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Ken -- Any status on an Xbox version of Anthology??? Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Did you say ... GBA ??! Wow, that's great! I'll probably pick that one up for Thrust on-the-run and River Raid on the Game Boy Player/GCN! Thanks Ken and Activision! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolenta Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Ken, Are the extras that never made it to the original release, such as the stuff I sent you, going to be on this release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Eh, all right. I guess the game's theme is a little past its fresh date. Also, there's no telling what the creator of Kaboom! thought of it. So, what's going to be included in the 2600 version, anyway? Will it feature true emulation or just accurate conversions of the games available for the VCS? Finally, I'd appreciate it if you could give me a little more information about this apparent sequel to Activision Anthology. JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san-d-2000 Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Everybody seems to be crazy about this special edition of Anthology, I just bought the original release a couple of weeks ago, and now this one comes out, I feel a bit taken. -San Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
