Re: Which arcade game were you best at
Hmmm. Well, I was briefly the MAME World Record holder on Twin Galaxies for Yie Ar Kung-Fu, so probably that. I'm very good at Kung-Fu Master, Track & Field and Hyper Sports, those spring to mind first.

Re: What's your favourite Nichibutsu arcade game?
Everyone who says Moon Cresta is wrong, unless they haven't played a single other Nichibutsu game. It may evoke the earliest fond memories, but it's horrible to play!

Digitiser 25th Anniversary special
Who remembers the days of teletext on the TV? Hitting the red/green/blue/yellow button to go to a section, then waiting for ages for each page to "turn"... it was awesome! Here in the UK, we had a video game section called Digitiser, which was something of a cult success. One of its top writers and ...

I know for certain, 100%, that it was not licenced.

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
Well, if you don't back it now, there's always the option to use c64audio.com, which is taking "pre-orders" and will be for some time after the Kickstarter finishes. These count as pledges towards the goals.

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
The book is going to be incredibly comprehensive. Into the last 24 hours now. To answer the question about Rob's original SIDs, they're not part of the Kickstarter... that is all new, original content. But there are plans to offer these in a package on C64audio.com at a later date, which will be tie...

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
Anyway, I'd be interested to know if there's a full tracklisting to the Hubbard '80 album yet, as I can't seem to find one on the crowdfunding page. That's the most interesting part of it to me, so it'd be good to know exactly what I'll be getting. Good question. I don't know that but I can ask Chr...

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
Well here's a question in that case. What do you feel would be the best way to celebrate his work? There are still 24 days left and Chris already has some things in the works which will be added soon. Maybe others feel the same way, and there are things that could be added which would appeal to dif...

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
The list of CDs explains who plays what and how. Most of them are other people remixing his music, which is a very popular thing. The first line of the Kickstarter lists all the things that are going to be in the Kickstarter: book, music, a cart and maybe a concert. Then the Kickstarter breaks it do...

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
There's only one CD of SIDs, all of which are new pieces. In the standard pledge, one of the other CDs, Hubbard '80, is an album of "premakes". If you think of the "Thalamusik" piece from the ZZAP! Sampler cassette, which was the Sanxion loading music as played by Rob on a synth, then the album will...

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
I was really interested in this until I found out it was just C64 music, then my appetite quickly vanished. A real missed opportunity in my opinion as his SID stuff has been done to death. Adding in AY, YM and POKEY stuff would have made it a must have. Not sure what you mean... one of the CDs in t...

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
The stretch goals have been substantially tweaked, which makes it a lot better value for everyone... if we get there and beyond.

Re: Project Hubbard (Rob Hubbard Kickstarter) is live!
That's the level I'm at. I always like having the stuff. There will be more things added over the campaign, I'm sure I'll be considering my options as to whether I can add anything else before the end!
