Ok ppl the retro comp over at http://www.remakes.org/ has finished
and there in you can find some of the classiest remakes ever seen.

highlights include (personally) -

hawkeye - in full on chunky o vision
trashman - in pseudo 3d and well worth a look
jumping jackson - mmmmm pretty
dizzy the remake - ohhhh you know u want it !!
beach head, manic miner, robotron and 70+ other games for you to peruse over.

these guys have put in the biggest amount of effort you could imagine.. so there downloads are a must.. so if you like your stuff retro and fancy having a wee bash at something old dressed up like claudia shiffer then go have a look

i can personally gaurantee satisfaction... oh yes.

That Dizzy remake is damned good. I swear, all those puzzle solutions came flooding back to me, the moment I picked up the grease gun.

*sigh* Ah, the good ol' days.

Yeh this is a great site and has a lot of great remakes

I have written the music for a Parralax remake but the guy doing the remake missed the deadline

you can hear my remix of Parralax - title track on my web site.
http://www.danceaway64.co.uk

I also written 2 original tracks which r in the game - Drive the beat - this is used as the in-game track.
Spacejump - this is used as the credits theme.
The remake of the game will b downloadable soon at http://www.jasonmhirst.co.uk

Any feedback on my music would b great

was a shame that para remake didnt get done in time.. it was looking really really class.. but hey ho!.. its still on its way and i cant wait to see it

ill have a listen to them tracks asap, if J employed ya to do it though u must be good.. guy has standards hehe.

i managed to get my wee little fingers into re-gen, robotron and cookie cruncher so as u can imagine i was a pretty busy little bee myself over the 3 months it took to get them games out.. pretty happy with the end results too

got a few more im working on too, but unfortunatly im a web spaz and aint got a clue how to make a webpage ^^ so cant stick them anywere though codex had threatened to release a few of the tunes for his paramod remake thingy on his site.. so ya never know.

until then everyone except me has to play the waiting game hehe.
orrrrr i could go learn html.. java etc blah blah.. but im too lazy for that.
