moycon Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I won this auction the other day. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=3048068822 Just noticed a game in the lot: Crime Busters??? I'm wondering if it's a pirate, or maybe a mis-print...Like maybe it's really Ghost Busters. With no pic it's hard to say. Has anyone heard of a game called Crime Busters??

Could be Criminal Pursuit, Ghostbusters, or a previously unknown prototype Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

video game addict Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 Could be the XE version? Crime Buster was released for the XEGS. Without pictures it's hard to tell. You would think someone could tell the difference between 2600 & XE carts, but I'm always seeing Intellivision and everything else mixed in lots. But if it really is a 2600 cart, and it is Crime Busters, might be a pirate version of Maze Craze, or Keystone Kapers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I hate to burst the bubble but I think "Crime Busters" is what's written on the front of the instructions for "Private Eye". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmmm Good call, But the lot doesn't include any instructions...Only Catalogs and comics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I think you're going to be disappointed with your purchase. Read the first line of the description: Large lot of used Atari 2600 game books plus a few comics that came with some of the games. I don't think you'll get any games at all. Just instructions and some comics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted September 27, 2003 Author Share Posted September 27, 2003 DOH!!! Man that sucks. Yep you're right. Ok now I see your point. Private Eye it is. Good thing I don't have alot of these instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 Who bothers to read descriptions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockman_x_2002 Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 Who bothers to read descriptions! Heh heh. Spoken like a true Atari fan! If it's Atari stuff, who cares about any other details? ... unless of course the description quickly follows with "E.T." or "Pac-Man", which in either case the auction is avoided like the Plague.

CPUWIZ Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 The game is Keystone Kapers and that is the instruction manual for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
