All big hit Sierra games are named “something quest”, right? Police Quest, Space Quest, King’s Quest and so on. So, logically, this game was called Hero’s Quest. Then comes Gremlin, with this license thing from MB Games. MG Games had just created a nice board game called Hero Quest (in which you are four champions killing monsters). Gremlin says, you can’t have that name, sorry. Sierra graciously abided, renaming the game Quest for Glory, but the Atari version is called Hero’s Quest. September 8, 2002 by perihelion
It’s a game with a cool atmosphere, and it’s a bit different. It’s not fast, furious action, but a little slow and contemplative. However, it all gets a bit boring after a while, and extremely frustrating. With this package comes some bugs as well, that can sometimes destroy your game play. But don’t let this discourage you completely, just because it’s such a different and innovative approach to action platform games, it deserves a try, you’ll soon discover if you like it or not.

TGGS is a fantastic game, no doubt about it, and the ST version is just fine. The graphics are average, the music is good and the gameplay is awesome. If you always wanted to play Mario on your ST, this is your chance. TGGS is just as good. When you play it, you'll understand why Nintendo got the heebee geebees when this came out. But if you're not just an ST fan and wanna play the best version of TGGS, get your hands on the C64 version of the game! (And believe me, I hate to admit that :-)August 3, 2002 by ST Graveyard
"Team Yankee" was the first in a respected trilogy of tank simulations by Empire Software ("Pacific Islands" and "War in the Gulf" being the follow ups). The game is based on the book of the same name by Harold Coyle, which was a New-York Times number one bestseller. In the book the Russians have decided to heat up the cold war and start a campaign in Europe. You are captain Sean Bannon, commander of the tank company Team Yankee. With 4 tank platoons under your command, it's your job to wipe out all Russian activity, which is situated in Germany. An intruiging story...But what about the game? July 27, 2002 by perihelion
This game is fantastic! Very good atmosphere, excellently designed levels and lots of weapons to choose from. You also have health as well as lives, which always looks good in my book. Only bad thing is the frustration when the hero suddenly decides to take a giant leap forward instead of just moving an inch closer to the edge. People who want fast, pumping action may be a bit disappointed at first, but stay with the game and you’ll get to like it. 
A few years ago, I watched an incredible documentary about Mortal Kombat. It took me right back to the days of playing The Ultimate Arena on my STe, and it got me thinking—was this Atari game really made with live actors? No, that couldn't be… or could it? So, I began searching for the elusive creator of the game, known only by the initials T.R. Buz. After three years of searching, I finally found the man himself. I had a boatload of questions. This interview may seem a bit chaotic, as the exchanges between Théo and me spanned several weeks, but I didn’t want any details to be lost to time. So, I’ve shared everything. Read on for the full story behind the making of the only Mortal Kombat clone on the Atari in this extensive interview!

Read interview of T.R. BuzDid you know that there are some love messages in the TOS ROMs of the ST? In fact you can find the strings "Dave StaUgas loves Bea Hablig" and "JIM LOVES JENEANE" in all TOS ROMs with version number 1.xx and 2.0x!
