Surprising Games
[ Diary Entry ]
Ploughing through the disks and I have amongst the towers of disks 
various boxed games for the Amiga. I say boxed, they are the plastic 
case type that look like oversize cassettes. I was logging the various 
disks away and then opened one called Hostages. Not only wasn't it an 
Amiga disk , but inside to my surprise was a 5.25" disk for the C64. I 
did laugh.

Anyway.. I set the game to one side and carried on. This time to a game 
called Star Trek Rebel Universe. As I opened the case to remove the 
quite thick blue book out popped something which was not a 3.5" disk. 
You guessed it , a cassette for the C64 again. What am I like. The 
manual is incredibly well detailed and I have watched some extracts on 
YouTube. Amazing really.
