As you are probably already aware, Jordi Sureda recently released his remake of Phantomas 2/Vampire (http://www.cpc-power.com/index.php?page=detail&num=16 (http://www.cpc-power.com/index.php?page=detail&num=16)).
Aside from a Matranet release (http://www.matranet.net/boutique/cpc/phantomas20/phantomas20.php (http://www.matranet.net/boutique/cpc/phantomas20/phantomas20.php)), he also released an "Insane Edition" (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/games/phamtomas/msg170352/#msg170352 (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/games/phamtomas/msg170352/#msg170352) - check the pictures posted on January 29th) that had an extremely small print run (10 if I'm not mistaken)
Needless to say that as soon as I discovered that, I went from joy to sorrow :) Joy because the remake is extremely well made and Vampire/Phantomas 2 is one of my favorite CPC games (there's no accounting for taste, I know). Sorrow because the Insane Edition is, of course, not available for sale anymore (ARGH!!!!).
Where it gets interesting is that thanks to XeNoMoRPH (cheers!) I got in touch with Jordi & he's ok with launching another print run if enough people are interested. If some of you are interested by an Insane Edition, you can contact Jordi Sureda via his Twitter (@jsureda) or by email (jordidigital@gmail.com). Or I can let him know you'd be interested.
So there it is, I really hope we can convince him to get another print run, the game is really fun & the Insane Edition is a true gem, on par with the Poly.Play releases (seriously have you looked at the contents! How is that for gorgeous?)
According to the authors, we only need less than 5 people more for a new batch.
Let's go.
I just got an update from Jordi & we need three more buyers. So close...

I am interested so I have e-mailed Jordi. Still waiting to hear back.
Thanks for organising this! :)
Yes! Let's do this. I'll check with Jordi to see where we stand. I'm pretty sure we can get this done :)

Same here (i emailed a couple of days ago). Crosses fingers and all that.
Alright, it seems like we need one more to get the print going.
Jordi is contacting some of his friends to see if they would be interested, but in case that fails, I offered to buy an extra copy to get things started.I'll keep you posted when I get a confirmation from Jordi.
All those who contacted Jordi should have received an email to confirm this is happening.More details coming soon, so make sure to check your mailbox.
Thanks to all those who participated, this means a lot to me (and hopefully to you too).
