Ah, what a shame WHDLoad programs don’t have the intros. I do like them. I guess all these games you have found are .adf versions?

That is what i was wondering too, who released the games because the most are still on digital sale i guess...so what is this..???

The crackros easily found and guessing by the details, where they are listed. These are the real deal!

As for WHDLoad, could it be made to load the cracktros first?

The crack intros have been available for many years and just taking an old intro (from groups which have long died) doesn't make these valid releases for me.

Sure but WHDLoad patches are made for original games and these don't have any crack intros for obvious reasons.

Two of those had PD versions anyway, and Curse was released digitally free for a short time (not sure if still is) but pretty sure Skillgrid hasn't been released for free, so name and shame the dick doing this...

The Curse of Rabenstein can be downloaded for free; if you choose not to support the developer and not even give the huge nominated amount of €3.00

These games from jarre's list are still sold, so it's bad to release so soon IMHO:

... Rotator
... Tiny little Slug
... Skillgrid

At least wait a year or so...

Thats why i wonder who's behind this releases.....

Kestra Amiga Demo Database has the cool intros without the game. I love intros, but I also like to support people that still make software for our awesome machines.

Doing trainers for new games is one thing, but these releases just seem off.

Scoopex will continue to try and find old commercial titles from back in the day that were never released, but we will not be getting involved in releasing new titles, those days are gone.
