• magisterrex Retro Games


    I've been gaming since the days of Pong and still own a working Atari 2600 (among other elder statesmen systems!). I tend to ramble on about retro games, whether they be board games, video games or PC games. Sometimes I digress. Decades after earning it, I'm finally putting the skills I learned while completing my history degree from the University of Victoria to good use. Or so I think. If you're into classic old school gaming, this blog is for you!

    Skype has opened its online-dependent customer beta to the world, after launching it broadly within the
    United states and You.K. before this 30 days. Skype
    for Web also now can handle Chromebook and Linux for immediate text messaging communication (no video
    and voice yet, individuals need a connect-in installment).

    The expansion in the beta adds help for an extended listing of languages to help you strengthen that global
    usability

    […] To explain: older games used to prevent copying by having special codes in the manual which you had to enter on load. To avoid being defeated by photocopies, they were often printed in yellow-on-white or black-on-black, and/or spread throughout the manual so you’d have to copy the whole manual.
