Can't believe there's no love for The Willy. It's a great game and Tezz did such an amazing job of faithfully recreating the original.

I've played my fair share of JSW on C64 and a little on the Speccy. Decent game but not one of the ones for which my heart beats the fastest. One of my friends is a dedicated collector of Software Projects games though and is of a different opinion on the MM/JSW games.

Pitstop 1 or 2 ?

 

Two looks better, plays awful

 

One is fun ?

Aha, in Pitstop 1 you earn prize money besides championship points? Would we play a grand circuit at a given difficulty level, either for total points or for most prize money in case those differ?

 

I understand that the sequel is not highly regarded on the A8, and that Epyx by 1984 was starting to steer more towards the C64.

I was hoping for Pharoes Curse.  Mayby next time.

[carlsson]

Yeah, it is only 2.5 months ago we played Montezuma Again which is roughly similar to at least Pharaoh's Curse though I understand that "Pharaoh Theme Round" would include more games like Pharaoh's Pyramid, perhaps Crypts of Egypt, King Tut's Tomb, Tutankham etc.

 

We'll see how the next round is set up. I saw that Pitstop last was played in September 2011 [HSC 8] as some form of team event with six different races and max 2 attempts on each race:
