At the same time as digging out stuff for the website and discovering my old Ocean graphic cartridges I thought I'd have a goosey gander at some of the MASSES of old Spectrum games I've got up there in my parent's attic. This is just a SMALL fraction of what's up there. What to do with it all?

There's some classics there. And yes, I am only TOO well aware that I have too much time on my hands at the moment so don't go pointing it oot!

See thats just it, no I wouldn't. Wish there was some official archive or something I could donate them to. But then I wouldn't be able to get them out and look at 'um. Once every 5 years or so!!!

I've got a boxload of 64 originals like that (but they ain't worth jack!)

Marky - Deus Ex Machina is rarer than rocking horse shit - keep that one for your retirement fund mate!!!

A copy of that went for £100+ last year (!!!!!!)

Classic groundbreaking stuff... I had the poster up until a few years ago. I'm really not sure where it is now..

That row of Quicksilva games looks wonderful. Does the legendary (and sadly deceased) Ian Dury feature much on the Deus Ex Machina tape? Rob
