Mad Dog and Johnny Rock suck, but Space Pirates isn't that bad... |

I had to get 2 different versions. I bought some off ebay and none of them worked right. However, I got another copy of the same game, and it worked great. It appears they did several versions of the CDROMs. |

I just got The Last Bounty Hunter, Space Pirates, & Mad Dog II. Viewing them on a TV over an S-video connection, they look like standard definition broadcast quality. I received the DOS version of Mad Dog McCree and it is horrible. The "Remastered" XP version is on the way. Hopefully it will be the same as the others. Don't buy any off fleabay unless they have this Windows XP Compatible logo on the front. The quality of the previews on the Digital Leisure website look the same as the games I have. http://www.digitalleisure.com/contents/pcCDRom_games.htm |

Hmmm, that could be it - I have the DOS versions of Mad Dog and Johnny Rock. Keep us posted about the XP version of McCree... |

Hello. I am the programmer for Daphne's ALG Singe Collection. This thread was brought to my attention and would like to clarify a few things. The ALG SINGE Collecton is not a group of simple "wrappers". That is incorrect. These are full, stand alone games. Singe is an addon for the Daphne emulator. Some people already use it to play ActionMax on their machines. The games use the same footage as the Windows CDROMs which is comparable to standard definition (SD) quality. As with other Daphne games you need to own the disc media. The games are cabinet friendly and yes you can disable the cross hairs easily by accessing an in game menu (no hacking necessary). Mouse is the primary input device. Aimtrak and guncon can be used, but not in fullscreen mode. In terms of accuracy the games stand somewhere between the home versions and the arcade machines. Things that were missing from the CDROMs are now accessible. Unlike the CDROMs the ALG Singe Collection has high score screens, configuration menus, and overall more complete gameplay. Some differences may be immediately apparent, others so technical it would take thorough knowledge of the real arcade to be able to spot them. Many people put their heads together to make this project a reality. Also in the amateur spirit of this hobby it's available to the community free for personal use. However that also means no technical support. I invite anyone interested to try them out. Read the official thread over at the Daphne-emu.com forums for more information. |
