Simply awesome. If any of you guys browsed the site back in the day like I did -- I'm sure I'm not the only one who has fond memories of what a great read the site was. Here's a message from MikeB posted elsewhere I'm passing along. I know there must be a few old DAM readers here who will be pleased to find out about this!

Hi guys

I don't know if any of you can remember the little site named above which I used to run, some of you older (like myself) members of the forum might just about do so seeing it first hit the WWW somewhere around the actual dawn of time. And space.

Anyway, after many years of neglect I was moved to actually re-visit it a few weeks back, and by jiminy if it isnt quite entertaining really (though I do say so myself)

So guess what. I've actually been doing some work on it. Yep that means actually writing and posting stuff, and getting some new reviews and features up. Not many overall perhaps but there's some new goodies including historical lookbacks at the likes of R-Type Leo, Batsugun and Truxton 1&2 as well as some excellent reviews kindly donated by a certain Mr Stuart Cambell (god bless you sir). But the thing is is I've actually been having a great time doing all this, re-living all these old games over again.

So anyway, thought I'd drop in and let you know that DAM has had a reprieve from being 'dead' which some of you lot seemed to think was the case!

The site is now at http://www.stickycarpet.com/dam so any of you that are still linking to the old site server (www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~bevhome/DAM.htm) on your own sites are linking to a site that actually hasn't been updated since about 2000 so it might be an idea to update that

Happy blasting!

MikeB

Wow! You've made my day:)

How great is this site? I grew up with R-Type, Gradius, Raiden, 1942 and all these classic 2D sprite shooters, I remember pumping huge amounts of $$ into those as an enthralled teenager, and now I can be nostalgic about those days all over again.. Thanks for the link!!
