The penultimate release is now available on the UG website and has 1003 entries. Many of the new additions are type-in games from magazines and books so cannot be found elsewhere online. The final release will be in a few months time when I have finished typing in all the remaining games I have.

PS, the reason I released this now instead of holding back until all games were typed-in is due to my paranoia that my hard-drive would crash or I would lose all the type-ins by some other means. It's a tedious job and I don't want to have to do it again :)

Excellent, nice on Tubbs - any chance of a rapidshare link or the like?

I have offered before with no response, but if ratio maintenance is a problem, just ask OX. :wink:

Thanks Hidron. It's not a particular problem with this torrent, I just don't like dipping into my ug ratio :lol:

Thanks OX, I'll take a good look through those games to see if there's any more I missed, although 'The Hulk' is in the Gamebase under the name 'Questprobe 1'.

Thanks OX, I'll add the new script to the final release and use it to self-boot the Scott Adams games :)

WIP report. Game count now over 1100 games and looking like the total will be close to 1300 games :D

The ETA for the final release date is going to be much later than I anticipated as I am continually finding more and more games to add, mainly from listings. Hopefully It'll be done before the end of the year if I can type fast enough :wink:
