    How about this one? Best game ever. Was featured on a Johnny Ball programme way back in the day.

    <ig src="myweb.tiscali.co.uk/diesel72/ c64/fractalus.gif" border="0">

    This is the C64 version, was also available on Atari.

    EDIT: Nuts, link is fried.

    Without looking at the picture... smile_o.gif

    ... 'Rescue on Fractalus!'

    With some work it does work in w2k/XP too, theres an unofficial patch that fixes the memory problem which stops it from working... and with the help of VDMSound and some other tools it works like a charm, here's a FAQ of some sort to get it working.

    Excellent link! Finally no more 'Our system has been shocked!' errors for me.

    Thanks!

    This has to be F-19 Stealth Fighter from Microprose. I can't remember any other game where you had "photographing" as an object!

    This was my first flight sim ever played, even after F-117A Nighthawk came out, I still was flying the F-19 smile_o.gif

    Correct!

    I fondly remember the night missions where i started in 'central europe', fly to 'Kola Peninsula' (?) and photograph the sub-pen.

    The hardest part for me was the landing though. biggrin_o.gif

    Remember Decathlon ? biggrin_o.gif

    Along with a sexually motivated tounge_o.gif game it killed my first joystick biggrin_o.gif .

    I got me a Quickshot II some time later and modified it to permanent rapid fire. I also built a reset switch for my C64 on my own. those were the days biggrin_o.gif

    Reset switch? I used a tweezers (right word?) to short pin #1 and #3 on the user-port.

    It worked fine. smile_o.gif

    Until the day i shorted pin #1 and #2. rock.gif

    I then built a proper reset switch for the replacement 64. crazy_o.gif

    Game 3 is Wings indeed, from Cinemaware, yep, i like it came from the desert too from them.

    I played wings like crazy.

    No idea about game 2 ?? it was pretty much fun ! It was inspired by the movie Rollerball, although the game was named slightly different.

    Dunno why I never played Wings, could have been the time when I switched to the PC...

    Hmm, something like 'Rocket Ball'?

    My memory is not what it used to be tounge_o.gif

    Quote[/b] ]Hmm, could #4 be 'Zork'?

    No.

    Another hint: Hitchhiker´s Guide was part of the series.

    Quote[/b] ]Too bad you can't change the name later...

    I am not sure but have you asked a mod to change it ?

    Maybe they can do it, but I´m not sure.

    Hmm, beats me. I always thought 'HHGTTG' had only one part. Or do you mean part of the Infocom-series?

    The other Infocom-game with whacky humor that comes to my mind would be 'The Leather Godesses of Phobos'.

    Help, I need more hints! biggrin_o.gif

    BTW, thanks for the tip with the name, I think I'll do that...

    great ! biggrin_o.gif

    Ok now there are only 2 missing. The one with the radio is easy imo. The text one was part of a text adventure series although it was the followup to a really well known series by an author with the initials D.A. biggrin_o.gif

    Who is Sadus btw ?

    Hmm, could #4 be 'Zork'?

    Sadus is a terminology from Dune:

    http://www.dreamersofdune.com/lexicon/list.php?letter=S

    My normal handle when playing is 'Sardaukar' (which is also from Dune). When i registered with the forums i needed a name fast. Too bad you can't change the name later...
