Hello there,

I'm not sure how I ended up joing this site or contributing (games sections only at this stage). But I'm 32, living in Sydney, Australia. I only recently stumbled across all of this stuff...and there I was, transported back to the 80's.

My Dad bought me an Amstrad CPC 464 for xmas 1987 (I think) when we were living in NZ. What a christmas present!!!

It came with the following games:

Into Oblivion, Vampire, The Apprentice, con-quest, Rocky Horrow Show, RadZone & RebelStar (Hence why I started my contributions on those games (and some edits of existing) as those games had a huge impact.

Man, those games kept me busy! The funny thing is, I've only recently finished some of those games! After lots of saving (using WinApe). I never seemed to be able to finish games as a kid - maybe I didnt have enough patience or probably because you couldn't 'Save' your position.

I remember the anticipation and excitement as those cassette tapes were ever so close to loading and I could start playing!!!
