USC demo requests + unknown demo
I'm looking for some demos from the Swedish group USC (United Style Crackers). I used to have two of their demos, one had a "futuristic control panel" with small windows, one of the windows had a little green alien with blinking eyes walking in it, and another window had a scroll text going. The other demo was just a pic of Garfield kicking a fridge saying like "Damn, the fridge won't budge". I'm not sure but I believe they were made around 1987 or 1988.
I also have a request for another very old demo, probably made around 1987. I don't remember the name or group (the group might have been from Denmark if I remember the scrolltext right, but I'm not sure about this). It featured the cover picture of Cobra, Sylvester Stallone wearing sunglasses and holding a machine gun (with some flashing effects in parts of the picture), and I believe you could change the music by pressing different keys (like in many other demos from that time).
Thanks in advance. |

Thanks, but I already have those two and it's neither one of them. I found 11 demos from USC at http://www.c64hq.com (including those two) but none of them were the ones I was looking for.
So please keep looking out for those two USC demos plus the unidentified one for me, I'd be happy if someone could eventually find any of them. :) |

Bumping my old request because I just found out that the United Style Crackers demo with the "futuristic control panel" I was talking about uses Rob Hubbard's tune Thanatos, if that rings any bells? I still haven't found any of these demos so I'm still looking for them. |

Thanks cba, that's the one I was looking for! It was one of the first demos I got back in the days, so it was really nice seeing it again! :)
I'm still looking for that Garfield demo from the same group (USC), in case anyone happens to have it laying around on a random disk somewhere. ;) |
