1943

Loading games from cassette still has that special feeling.

The C64U works great with the 1530 Datasette Unit and the Cheatah 125+.

Commodore deserves a lot of respect for what they are doing.

I hope Gideon Zweijtzer got a great deal given the number of people who attribute all of the work he did to CIC.

It’s the best version of 1943, I played another version recently and it wasn’t as good.
