The Amiga was in a cabinet that was turned backwards so the doors were supposed to be out of reach.

The guys from Binary Emotions (naughty boys!!) crowded around the cabinet as I whipped the disk out.

Got it home, trained it and played it right through to discover it was the full game.

Released a few days later.
Hehe sweet. Wonder if you ever credited the Binary Emotion guys in the release...

XXXX/FairLight was another talented guy. The year after I nicked those SNES-games we visited ECTS in London again and found some game which - unfortunately - I don't remember the name of. We walked by a couple of times and thought it was worth a try. XXXX sat down, played and played (for half an hour or so, pretending he was real astonished etc).

Thing is that the staff was way more aware that year and so kept a close eye on pretty much everything in and around their booths. XXXX kept playing and I thought we should assist him the same way the Binary Emotion-guys did to you, but Splatt told us not to worry as he was so confident XXXX would take care of it. He was right, five mins later XXXX turned up with the disc in his hand and another release was secured.

Memories...


XXXX was a major FLT UK trader. I've deliberately changed his nick but it began with a "C" ...
