![]() The main goal of the project is to catalog and audit various kinds of software and firmware images for these systems. ![]() The Old School Emulation Center (TOSEC) is a retrocomputing initiative dedicated to the cataloging and preservation of software, firmware and resources for microcomputers, minicomputers and video game consoles. ![]() The collection includes a broad range of software related materials including shareware, freeware, video news releases about software titles, speed runs of actual software game play, previews and promos for software games, high-score and skill replays of various game genres, and the art of filmmaking with real-time computer game engines. Interestingly, I've found five secret levels, one of which is called Ski Crazed, which was their first ever game on the Apple II.DESCRIPTION The Internet Archive Software Collection is the largest vintage and historical software library in the world, providing instant access to millions of programs, CD-ROM images, documentation and multimedia. I haven't had so much fun with a new game in ages :-) For those that don't know, Crash Bandicoot is the brainchild of Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin, former IIGS developers who created Dream Zone and Keef the Thief. Sorry for the recent lack of updates, I've been bogged down with Uni again since semester started three weeks ago, and I've also been addicted to Crash Bandicoot Warped, played under emulation on my G3.

Still no joy for Windows users wanting to emulate the IIGS. The program is a lot easier to use now, not to mention that it's useable at all previous versions of XGS failed to run with MacOS 8.5 or higher. ![]() The new version is now called iGS, the 'i' standing for 'improved'.

Testing the new version myself, I have to report that it's absolute aural bliss now.
