Unreleased C64 game on ebay

Saw this mentioned here -> http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2010/12/shockwave_unreleased_c64_ga..

It's got a listing at "Games That Werent" so I guess its legit..

It doesn't help exactly that it is mentioned in this thread to begin with.

Anyway, hopefully whoever wins it can get it to work.

Looks like someone is going to get a nice Christmas gift for one ancient floppy. ;)

What is most critical is that it lands in the possession of a scener. It is not critical which group restores this. What is important is that this rare original is preserved by the scene.

Fuck it. I'm going to email the seller with a message to forward on to the winning bidder, linking to this site, and GTW64 and asking for the source to be shared with the group of his/her choice so that it can (hopefully) be completed into a working game. If it was won by a scener, great. However, at that price I fear it may have been purchased by a collector who wants to keep the disk for it's 'unique' value and never even insert it into a working 1541...

(How long before fake previews/cracks come out pretending to be this game, I wonder...) ;)

Apologies for three posts in a row. This does not sound promising:

Dear heavystylus,

Hi,

The buyer is aware of the situation regarding the unreleased game and has been monitoring disscussions on the Lemon64 forum.

I would suggest you ask him via those means as he may be able to supply you with some images at least, he may even be a member of that forum.

Best Regards

I'm almost certain of the winner, the guy is a rather well known eBay seller from UK. I know he was bidding against Mayhem ...

Also, it's not important that the game lands in a scene groups hands. There are plenty of non-sceners that can create D64 images. ;)
