Klove Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Hey All! Just a quick note to let you know that Anthology REMIX should go GOLD by the end of the day. I believe Walmart is going to be getting a Special "Packaged" Version, and they're actually getting the game first. Have Fun 'n' Hope Ya' Like It! - K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klove Posted October 14, 2003 Author Share Posted October 14, 2003 Whoops! Meant to say that it's the PC version. Dumb me, of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 so walmart is getting the special dlog version? sweet! 'Anthology REMIX goes dloG' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nostalgic Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 I thought that the GBA version was the first one to be released. It may just be a bad assumption, but the first press releases and articles that were mentioned here were both about the GBA version, so I thought it natural it would come out first. Also, does the "dolG" status depend on how many copies the stores buy or how many copies that consumers buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PongHit Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Whoops! Meant to say that it's the PC version. Hey Ken: When will the Mac version be ready? And PS2? Xbox? GameCube? THANKS! -PongHit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GBA version of the Anthology is not quite the same as the Anthology Remix. The GBA Anthology is (more or less) a port of the original Anthology. The Remix adds more games and probably other features that I am unaware of. That does not make the GBA Anthology any less seductive, I'm impressed with what was crammed into a GBA cart as it is. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxglove9 Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Grr...too bad there's no Walmart in the NYC area. What's so "special" about the package? Oh well it's the PC version anyway, wasn't planning on purchasing that. The GBA is still on my want list, and maybe the Mac version of Remix if it's very different from the PS2 version.

Thomas Jentzsch Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Just a quick note to let you know that Anthology REMIX should go GOLD by the end of the day. Is that a sales rating? How many sales do you need for GOLD? Please explain for an uninformed person like me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rolenta Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 Grr...too bad there's no Walmart in the NYC area Sure there is: Union NJ - fifteen miles west of NYC. And you can take the 114 Express bus from the PA bus terminal and it will take you right past it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted October 28, 2003 Share Posted October 28, 2003 Has anybody seen this yet? The only date I can find online is for a videogame retailer that lists the release date for 11/03. Ken, is there an official release date? Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which, if it refers to a CD-R, is now an anachronism because I don't even think you can get gold CD-Rs anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken never seems to mention the possibilty anymore. . . . Well, according to Ken (Activision), & the publisher (MacPlay), the MACINTOSH version will be out very soon: http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=35854 http://www.macplay.com/games/anthology.php So, I'm holding my breath. -PongHit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEBRO Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 Okay, went to Wal-mart to get some pictures developed today and there it was in the PC section. It's in a blue small box the size of an Atari box. I bought it because I had to have a copy today. Now I just have to sit and wait for my copy to arrive in the mail.

DEBRO Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Here's my take on this... It plays well (the Activision games). I really enjoyed playing these again. I don't have the carts so I can't play them on my VCS. Visually everything looks fine except... It seems as though they moved the screen over to the left a bit. I noticed that the Activision games (which used the HMOVE lines on every scan line) show sort of a full horizontal resolution. So it seems they moved the display over to the left to make the games look more centered. Ultimately removing the HMOVE lines. This didn't work well on other games I played Space Treat Deluxe and the title screen is moved over a bit where you can't see the whole thing. Also it seems as if the score is not centered. This is okay as the game is still fully playable. Now Climber 5 and Dragonfire have different stories Climber 5 starts out in PAL display mode (player 2 difficulty switch set to A) so the colors aren't right. If you switch to NTSC mode then the game becomes unplayable. The screen is moved up too high to see the top level where the ball is located. Dragonfire also suffers from the vertical screen resolution. The top part of the screen is cut off a bit and the bottom part is cut off where you can't see the remaining number of lives. These are the only 2 games I saw problems with. I haven't played too many though. So far I've played Bloody Human Freeway, Chooper Command, Demon Attack, Dragonfire, Enduro, Kaboom!, Keystone Kapers, Laser Blast, Laser Gates, Megamania, Private Eye, River Raid, Sky JinksKaboom, Enduro, Private Eye, Venetian Blinds, Climber 5, and Space Treat Deluxe. I also like the 80's music in the background. I do question Wild, Wild, West by Kool Moe Dee though. Didn't this come out in the late 80's when the NES was on top? I could be wrong but were any of these games released during that time frame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph3 Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Wild Wild West by KMD came out in 87 just to let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEBRO Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Wild Wild West by KMD came out in 87 just to let you know. I guess I was focusing on other things that year besides video games I assume this means it's out now? Care to tell us where you bought it from? My local Walmart didn't have it on Saturday. Yeah, my local Wal-mart had it on Thurs. 10/30. My parents also picked up a copy this past weekend at their local Wal-mart. GameStop says they're shipping them now too. I think they're suppose to be released widely tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
