Some of the games were removed because the .tzx files contained incorrect pause information between blocks. Since this site was setup for preservation purposes those games had to go.

30/06/2000 Sorry about the lack of updates recently, I just needed to take a breather after spending loads of time converting tapes. In this update there are the following games which I've picked up from car boot sales and ebay:- A Ticket To Ride, Battlecars, Black Hawk, Deathscape, Gauntlet, Gauntlet The Deeper Dungeons, Gyron, Invincible Island, Lunar Letters, Pat The Postman, Starclash, The Colour Of Magic and the original version of The Quest For The Holy Grail ;) I have also added an extra page which lists games by their publishers indexing system, the first publisher listed is Mastertronic.There are a lot of games missing from the list itself and many .tzx files are missing. Any help in completing the list would be appreciated.
17/05/2000 Completed converting the Sinclair games I have and started the Mastertronic games. If you know of any Mastertronic games that are not in the list on the index page please let me know. I would appreciate any .TZX files you have to fill in the gaps as well. I also added a few rare games which I picked up from car boot sales recently, for example Star Soccer by Watson Software Services Ltd.
25/04/2000 Just a single game uploaded this time!! I was browsing through blood's web site after downloading FeMAME V2.02 and noticed that Savage Island Part 2 was on the MIA list. Well its now available for download on the 'S' page.
25/04/2000 Added a few more Ocean and Imagine games including Galvan, Terra Cresta, Arkanoid, V and Typhoon 128k. I've also got International Matchday and Rastan to convert but these are proving to be a little trickier than the rest. Stay tuned ;)
23/04/2000 Uploaded the latest updates to the site. Most of the games were published by Sinclair, Ocean and PSS although a couple of games by other publishers have also been uploaded. Its best to check out the pages which list games alphabetically to see whats new as I don't have time to keep the publisher page up to date.
21/04/2000 Added a new page which lists games by their turboload scheme. The following turboload schemes are currently listed:- Bleepload, Speedlock 1, Speedlock 2, Speedlock 3, Speedlock 4 and Speedlock 7. Added some more games from DK'Tronics, New Generation and PSS.
19/04/2000 Added lots of Ocean and Imagine games, a couple from DK'Tronics. Enjoy ;)

Heavy on the Magick is the first turbo loading game I've converted using READVOC and my new STA1 tape adapter from BUZ Electrics. If you need one call John Paine on (0181) 542 9140. Now if only MAKETZX or Real Spectrum could be updated so I could make better use of it...
05/04/2000 Added a shed load of Firebird games, quite a few Artic games and a few other bits and bobs ;)
