Come up with your own idea, or get permission from the copyright owners!!!!! Not that I care about permission but what about this: AtariAge Store: PacmanCollection I could name many more. I'm not justifing it at all but I don't think they are making that much profit to make a difference. p.s. I own PACMAN Collection and it's great Edited March 31, 2007 by jay2068 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come up with your own idea, or get permission from the copyright owners!!!!! I am not making any profit off of this or any other release. As you can see I always limit the number of cartridges made and I don't charge insane prices to make a profit. I could easily sell each of these to the highest bidder and rake in the money, But you can check my previous post history and see that I don't do that. I know that there are bad feelings swirling around with the $100 carts but that is not me. As for as copyright concerns, I am just a fan doing this for my own use and a few friends with no financial gain intended or recieved. I respect the talented programmers here at AtariAge and have worked with several on different projects. I would never knowingly do anything to hurt or undermine their efforts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come up with your own idea, or get permission from the copyright owners!!!!! Hi Andrew Neotokeo s prices are not too high and his profit is surely low.But let us be serious. I think today,no programmer is making a game for the 2600 to become a rich man. Even,if he would take 100 dollars for a cart.You as a really good programmer should know this.It is(even for a hack)a lot of work,making a game.And if you count your hours working on a game,your profit will be really low.I did 2 hacks for the 7800 in the past. I did them just for fun and not for profit.And i also think,that real programmers(like you and Thomas)and hackers(like Neotokeo,Usinoh...)should accept each other. greetings Walter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one takes these games seriously, they are only for fun and are loosly based on characters from movies and TV shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one takes these games seriously, they are only for fun and are loosly based on characters from movies and TV shows. Hackers get permission from nobody. I think that's part of the definition (or at least, it was in the past). If one is dedicating himself to design something completely unique, using any pre-existing work as the platform would negate the goal in the first place For something that is potentially damaging to original ideas/programs that they are based on, I might agree with the "profit" angle to a certian degree (that's why I'll never seek to earn a penny for Hack'Em). But a hack of a 24 year old program to include a 44 year old character?? Who cares? Fair game IMO...no matter what "The Mouse" dictates.

Atari Dogs Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 That looks like a great game. All the extras included with it make it a great deal too. I would put an order in, but I am not that big of a Dr. Who fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PressureCooker2600 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Anyone gotten theirs yet? On a similar note, I tried out Alien Greed finally and it actually gets pretty damn tough when all the walls begin appearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neotokeo2001 Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 Anyone gotten theirs yet? On a similar note, I tried out Alien Greed finally and it actually gets pretty damn tough when all the walls begin appearing. When I originally packed the games I used a Flat Rate Box by mistake (Over $3 more each). I had to bring them home and repackage them. Half went back out Thursday and the remaining go out Monday and Tuesday. I ship them on my lunch at work and the boxes are too big to put them all in my work truck together. I try hard to get them out on time but things happen. Sorry for the delay, again. Alien Greed is a cool little game. I really enjoyed it when Chris released Ants. All it needed was a little polish. Post your high scores and see if anyone can beat it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PressureCooker2600 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 The highest I got after 1 play was 96......assuming there are no difficulty settings. I'll have to start another thread about this for high scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
