Space Ace - Atari ST [012] PlayThru AutoPlay

Think of this capture as a movie, it (and the other five ReadySoft titles) were all run from a hard disk installation to avoid the disk swapping nightmare on the ST for these titles.

Atari ST Cracktro [017] Blade Runners from Trantor

I will not have too many stories to write for 'CrackTros' (Demo screens that appeared as introductions to cracked video games) as I did not have very many of these back in the day.  I am mainly recording these now because they are art, and need to be preserved.  I will also attempt to transcribe the scroll text, which will be posted in a companion blog entry linked above.

Atari ST Extra [001] Dragon's Lair / Escape from Singe's Castle Edited Movie

So, here is footage from Dragon's Lair and Dragon's Lair - Escape from Singe's Castle edited together in the order that scenes appeared in the arcade laserdisc.  This is a fresh capture from an Atari 1040 STe versus the previous longplay captures.

Time Soldier - Atari ST [011] PlayThru


NOTE: A trainer was used for making this capture.

Title Screen
I did not know this port existed until I started researching the Sega version of this game.  For whatever reason, this title is called 'Time Soldier' instead of 'Time Soldiers'; maybe this was because for whatever reason they decided to make this game single player?

Time Soldiers PSG - Sega Master System [009] PlayThru

Title Screen
NOTE: A trainer was used for making this capture.

This is a game I played years ago, with the original SMS sound.  Although, after having played through the same title with the FM sound, I think I honestly prefer the FM over the PSG version.  The PSG sound still gets the job done fine, but I just believe here that the FM wins out.

Dragon's Lair - Escape from Singe's Castle - Atari ST [010] PlayThru AutoPlay


Title Screen
 Think of this capture as a movie, it (and the other five ReadySoft titles) were all run from a hard disk installation to avoid the disk swapping nightmare otherwise present on the ST.

The Atari ST adaption of Dragon's Lair is by no means complete, so add this footage into the capture of the first Atari ST port of the game, and the the experience comes closer to being complete.
