hello talking with a friend we were speculating on how many games had to Amstrad, I think around 3000 ... you know the approximate amount of games?

dthrone

Well CPC Power has 12000-odd "softwares" on there so maybe even more than that!

cosa_nostra-6128

for real??? and this whole dump and safeguarded software?

dthrone

It's a reputable site and should be safe to download from if that's what you mean?

cosa_nostra-6128

I mean if they are different games 12000 Games or repeated in different versions and packs? And I mean if the games are preserved 12000 ...  Or there are games that have not been able to recover and convert dsk ? Using a translator maybe this explains me wrong

Yeah I wouldn't trust that number, it includes multi pacs, type ins etc.

Most have been preserved.

There are disks from originals and hacks and there are cassettes from originals and hacks and cartridges too.
There are a few games missing (not dumped) and there are records where game was announced but never released.

There are records for packs and the number includes tools and type-ins.

Yes. Right! And furthermore it lacks a lot of game as we know. For example Starfox, right? :laugh: :)
Don't get me wrong, I like the site a whole lot and it's really awesome. I just want to point out that the real number of games is probably even higher.  :)

I have only got respect for CPC Power, it is a really well implemented archive , that must have taken a lot of dedication to compile such a useful library, Considering it is from a foreign creator I presume? There is plenty of Consideration for the lazy English monoglots!Like moi Formidable , Achtung achtung Snell Snell Vite vite snell !Ci?

AMSDOS

Some of the type-in games will remain missing due to magazines for one reason or another not publishing it entirely as well.
* Using the old Amstrad Languages :D   * with the Firmware :P
* I also like to problem solve code in BASIC :)   * And type-in Type-Ins! :D
