Goochman Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Folks, This Poll will close Friday - Based upon the early feedback I am going to run this contest for 2 weeks. We dont have enough players weekly to alienate some of them for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Which dig dug are we talking here? The crappy 8-bit version or the much better 5200 version? I actually wouldn't mind playing both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted October 14, 2004 Author Share Posted October 14, 2004 There are 2 8bit versions - The original limited release pile of dog doo and the re-release conversion of the 5200 one. The 5200 version was ported and released by Atari on the 800 - That is the version we will play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devwebcl Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 The 5200 version was ported and released by Atari on the 800 - That is the version we will play which one of these is?

Goochman Posted October 15, 2004 Author Share Posted October 15, 2004 The Disk Version is the same as the 2nd edition cart version - devwebcl - You will recognize the crappy version immediately - it looks different than the 5200 one and plays REALLY slow. If Dig Dug wins - which it appears so I will post the ROM to use. Though the 5200 conversion is better, this title should've been more colorful IMHO.

Goochman Posted October 15, 2004 Author Share Posted October 15, 2004 Could someone send me the Datasoft disk version? I seem to only have the 5200cracked .exe - Attached are pictures to show the differences - The 5200 version I have only works with OS-B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
