Happy 52nd Birthday to Ceefax.
We’ll never forget that feeling of running home from school, then furiously tapping in p302 on the remote for your latest football news.
Simpler times.

On this day in 1985, 19th September 1985, Ghosts ’n Goblins started showing up in US arcades, and it looked like a cartoon.
The following year Chris Butler programmed, and was publised by Elite Systems, one of the best ports to the Commodore 64! If you played this game you know what I mean - it was brutal hard but it looked and sounded near perfect!
Zzap!64 magazine agreed with us, rating it a 97% "At last, Elite have released a decent arcade conversion on the 64, in fact the best to date. Chris Butler has made a marvellous job of converting the game..."
That perfect SID music coming out of your Commodore 64 was composed by Mark Cooksey.
Who else loved playing this on their C64?

The #1 best-selling PC game in 1999 by none other than legendary Chris Sawyer: RollerCoaser Tycoon
In his earlier years, Sawyer was inspired by Railroad Tycoon by Sid Meier, which then lead him to create his first blockbuster game: Transport Tycoon (1994).
