By George, you are right. I have 653 files from the newest dats that I have to swim through and I've just not had the time, even though there's a bunch of good stuff in that batch. I 'preciate the booster shot!

Again, thanks a bunch for the nice non-TOSEC piece! And for looking over the MIA list to notice this game. One brick at a time...

Buck Rogers: Matrix Cubed (1992/SSI)

I found the web site of game's producer and sent email asking if Amiga version was ever completed a few years ago, this is the response I got:
Heh... to be honest, I'm having a hard time remembering Amiga details. I was the producer in charge of Matrix Cubed, but the emphasis (and money) were always strongly fixed on the PC versions; Amiga conversions received only a fraction of the budget, because they got an even smaller fraction of the sales. Therefore, producers oversaw Amiga conversions at the same time we began new PC product. (In my case, I believe I was starting Stronghold at the time.)
Anyway, though I remember an Amiga version of Matrix Cubed on the schedule, I'm almost certain it was never completed. SSI was heading into deep financial troubles at the time, trying unsuccessfully) to avoid a huge layoff, and projects were being axed right and left. I don't remember exactly, but it seems likely that Matrix Amiga was zapped for that reason.

Thanks a lot for that bit of detective work, Kirben! I suspected as much, since no version of the game has yet surfaced. If they'd completed the game, they would almost certainly have released it if only to recoup the investment of having it developed in the first place.

It's probably safe to zap it from the list now. Thanks again for that.

Duke · 02 June 2003, 01:35

I have found Zargon on one of my CDs. It's in the zone

Duke · 02 June 2003, 02:21

Also found Angst, is this the one thats MIA? (its 4 Disks)

Twistin'Ghost · 02 June 2003, 03:46

Thanks a bunch, Duke! That must be the same Angst. I was a little curious about that title, anyhow, as I know there is a PC game with that name and I really needed to see the Amiga version to determine if it's the same game or not. Haven't been to that folder in some time, so I will check it out when I get home!

Duke · 02 June 2003, 12:04

Blob Kombat (Shareware Version) uploaded to the zone.

andreas · 02 June 2003, 12:51

Hmmm, is this the same demo as featured on AMIGA POWER Oct. 1995?

haribootje · 04 June 2003, 01:20

Got my old box with games back , which I gave away for 9 years after selling my amiga at that time. I am examining the disks now and found Tomas the Tank Engine 2 .
So you can strike this one off the MIA list.

Uploaded in the zone !

I'm just TOO realistic!

Always...hurting feelings of people in series. I'm such an unworthy individual, aren't I.

... but I have to hurt your feelings: This one is in TOSEC already! :hoo

@haribootje
One tip: rip the CRC-32 info by opening the zipped ADF with WinZIP and search for this CRC at TOSEC RC if it's already in the database!

haribootje · 04 June 2003, 02:12

And another one discovered in the "magic" box.

Scrabble 2 Dutch for the MIA list

@Andreas:

Well , I just looked in the MIA list at the top off this topic and saw it was in the list as missing..... Sorry, I am no Tosec Pro, just a simple amiga 1200 user...

Well, then just ignore the upload ;-)

Twistin'Ghost · 04 June 2003, 05:23

Thank, haribootje! I'll be going home in a few and will check it out along with Duke's uppers. That and look through yet more piles of stuff looking for The Music Studio (didn't find it last night, so I shall keep looking).

PixelsAtDawn · 06 June 2003, 13:38

You may want to add Tanx 'n' Stuff (registered version) to the list Twistin', unless it's been found since the last time I was here

Done. Took me a couple of days, as I had some leads, but they all turned out to be demos.

Does anybody know whatever became of 420º? Surely they are making PeeCee gamez now. This would be a nice prize to find, since it would in essence be four full games.

haribootje · 15 June 2003, 17:57

Twistin

I've found some other disks in my magic box :

Atomix (from your MIA list)

And a new one:

Super Sports Challenge (3disks) (Not in HOL, neither in Tosec)

Both uploaded in the zone !

That's ATOMIC with ATOMIC title screen.

CRC32 = 283E936D
This is
Atomic (1990)(Thalion)[cr VF][a no cracktro].adf

Twist is looking for the mega-rare version with the ATOMIX title screen.

I believe it only existed on C64, but who knows ...

NICE! That's the rare DIGITAL crack.

This game is already in HOL:

Thanks, haribootje, for continuing to dig through your personal collection for stuff. The effort is definitely appreciated! Don't be discouraged on the misses, though.

haribootje · 16 June 2003, 13:26

No problem at all, it looks like I have to check what I am typing. I searched for sports instead of sport !!

Just typed over what was on the label of the disk.

But I will continue checking, there's still over 1500 disks left to check. Also a lot of demos and coverdisks.
