ED-209
I should have showcased this before Christmas, but I never got a chance due to work commitments. So here it is: the Droid Definitive Collection, featuring all three Atari ST/STe games in a spanky-cool box. This is the latest from Bitmap Soft in collaboration with the mighty Atari Legend. (Maarten paid me to say that)
You might be thinking, "Three games?" Yes, both of the original shooters plus the newly upgraded Atari STe Droid by Jamie Hamshere (click that link). It has smooth scrolling, better sounds and enhancements. This is the ultimate box set for all fans and something I'm sure Miles Lord never dreamt of back in the day.
The box is excellent: it's strong, sturdy and boasts a rich, colourful design. Inside is a manual, a floppy, and a poster that doubles as a huge map. Geeks rejoice, for we have trinkets: stickers and a badge I must remember to wear down the pub. Seriously, I hope we get more boxed Atari ST games soon. Well done to all involved. Pop over to Bitmap Soft and treat yourself to the latest Atari ST game release by Bitmap Soft.
Don't forget to watch this video to show a comparison between the ST/STe games...
