| New Coverscan - Marsall - 2008-05-06 |  Just a quick note: Bear(tm) got his hands on an original C16/Plus4 tape that was missing from our collection and kindly scanned it. Novotrade was the largest commercial distributor of C16/Plus4 software, and now we the cover artwork for one of their releases, Marsall, which bears the product code of ED 38. One more piece of the puzzle, but there's still plenty missing. Thanks for the scan to Bear(tm)! |

| 7 New TAP Files! - 2008-05-04 |  Lacus returns with a database-expanding update of 7 new original TAP files. As most of his submissions, this too consists of Hungarian releases. Let's see that list then: A Bombázó Visszavág, Hungaroring, Időlabirintus, Olivér Otthona, Rabló-Rulett, Ürtojások and Vipera. Two things worth noting: according to this TAP file, the original Hungaroring game is the Hungarian, not the more common English translation. The second is the highlight of this pack: Időlabirintus, which is a fun (but inaccessible-to-most-since-it's-in-a foreign-language) game. There does exist a crack of it that contains the initial loading graphic, but the TAP file is the ultimate. Thanks for these to our supplier Lacus, enjoy! |

| Hungaroring and Rabló-Rulett cover scans - 2008-04-08 |   Over 20 years ago, at the time of their release, Hungaroring and Rabló-Rulett counted as top-of-the-line commercial games on the Hungarian market. They both feature large, colorful graphics, easy controls and most importantly, engaging game play. Whether they stood the test of time, and are still worth playing is up to you to decide: fire up your favorite emulator and enjoy some nostalgic retro-gaming.
At any rate, being commercial games, they also featured cover artwork. Unfortunately our history has been such that the Hungarian commercial games always lagged behind the ones from the English and German markets. However, thanks to Lacus, we now have nice full-size cover scans for these two games for your viewing enjoyment. Big thanks to Lacus for these! |

| "Easter-hello": Crypt's Back Again on Festivities - 2008-03-29 |  Happy Easter from Crypt!
Yeah, ok, I know it's a bit too late, but it has need a bit of additional working and debugging on real iron...but in the end here it is!
Easter-hello is another little and pretty nice sign of friendship from nukem, with graphics by DFlame and a cool dedicated SID tunes composed by A-Man/XEN. In this way, Crypt's ppl talks to the scene, and announce a bigger production in the close future.
We all got another direct lesson about scene's activity and communication with coyness from nukem, maybe one day we'll absorb it ;) |

| Two Fresh TLT's Digis in 2008 - 2008-03-02 |  Ok ok mmm...let me take in count:
in the first two months of this year we've got: two cool newcomers in the demoscene, a new issue of a monumental diskmag, improved emulations and converters, a rare gem found, fixings, papers and babies too.
Something's missing? Only one: the traditional TLT's supply of digi demos!
But wait a moment, the postman left an envelope in my mailbox...and here they are!
Hifi releases two brand new digi demos in February 2008, they're C'Est La Vie and Led Zeppelin, prving to the scene that TLT keep it on.
Thanks István! |

| Threeve 100%! - 2008-02-29 |  I love this first Plus/4 Bauknecht's prod so much, and it surely deserves a call more.
Yes, the short (but painful, argh!) delay time is now finished: the final, 100% working kicking and complete version of Threeve demo is out, and you will enjoy it so much. It's improved in the general design, has a cleaner plasma and Sire's tune kicks aaaarses!
Visit the BKN's official homepage to know more about these damn cool german sceners and their memorable productions. They also recorded a video of the demo, and in a very short time, we'll enjoy the TED tune as a standalone prg.
Run and vote for it! |

| Spring's Inkling at Oxyron Party 2008 - 2008-02-27 |  Oxyron Party means not only 8bit demos competition, but 8bit graphics competition too!
Let's examine the graphics entered at the party, and a Plus/4 one pops out: Chronos takes ACW's tag to Flensburg, joining the 8bit graphics compo with One Spotted Ladybird. His entry has been ranked 9th.
Good job, Tamás, glad to see you again working in MCM too! We're looking forward for more from you! |
