Just a little observation.
myloch, your notes have nothing to do to with my contributions. :) So far this thread has been about mr.editor's suggestions/fixes/clarifications/ideas/additions, and although I'd really like to keep it that way, I suppose it doesn't have to be like that. I would recommend to use Broken Downloads topic for broken links AND/OR create your own topic where you can keep track what good you have brought to LW community. :)

I see that Jailbreak is added to AL. Nice! But i'd like to remind that tiny red note which was in my post (I make it a bit bigger this time :P ):
"NB: please let me know it the game is backed up so I can delete it from my account."
Meaning - the download link put there will be invalid as soon someone confirm back-uping. :thanks: :)

About Future Wars - http://www.legendsworld.net/adventure/game/3552
Not sure should the rel year be changed, but Moby says the original release was in 1989 for Atari ST and Amiga. British DOS release is not mentioned, but maybe too 1989? To US it arrived in 1990.
Being European game, maybe it's also worth mentioning the euro title - Future Wars Time Travellers.

I'll leave Future Wars at 1990 unless there is proof PC version came out in 1989. I didn't add alternate Time Travelers subtitle as people will search for main title on site and it makes a lengthy title on index page which i want to avoid.

How about adding, either in the description or the download page, what languages the demo comes with. A LOT of those demos come with several languages but arent identified. True, a good amount of them do have, usually in the link to the download page the languages included, but that seems clunky. Just a little square somewhere would do wonders for multilingual users and organization.

Anyway, keep up the amazing work on this incredible site.

Glad you like us. Unfortunately, that's way too much work for me.

This could have been done had we set up a wiki like Abandonsocios has done. But at this point it would be a gargantuan task. :(

The translated name provided for this game is incorrect: http://legendsworld.net/adventure/game/3948
I recently discovered that an English version does, in fact, exist and I was able to order it from ebay today. The correct title is "Kao: Mystery of Volcano".

Polish version was called "Kangurek Kao i Tajemnica Wulkanu" ... it was translated to "Secret of The Vulcan Tribe" then "Mystery of Volcano" to put more sense in this NONSENSE game that was beyond awful ... not to mention those padding mini-games to make this 2h game ...6h longer

and it was a nice marker where this game image with translation lands ... and it spread like wild fire :lol:

I was wrong 4 and half years ago. Elite Heli Squad http://www.legendsworld.net/shooter/game/9181 was released in 2004! Reloaded ISO came out Sept 2004, as well as rips. So somewhere the game was released.

mr.editor wrote: Elite Heli Squad (Team6 game studios / Xing Interactive, 2005)
Game also has a demo: http://www.gamefront.com/files/3615855

Game was released in Apr 2005, but demo around 08-28-2004. Apparently the game was known Elite Helidefender before, as some sites host the demo under that name.
I wasn't able to get the demo working - after the loading screen stayed black. Win7 and/or ATI may not like the demo.

This demo has the following restrictions:
- A timelimit: After 60 minutes of playing, the fun is over..
- Only 1 helicopter available.
- Only 2 missions playable.

I think Early Math made by Sierra is an abandonware that doesn't have any good download links anywhere. I've tried the one from sierrahelp.com but when the setup is finished it requires a physical cd-rom in order to run the program.

I only have an image of the box available: http://sierrachest.com/index.php?a=games&id=562&fld=box

If anybody has a physical copy of the cd-rom of this program, please upload that to the database in Adventure Legends. I appreciate the help from anybody who would like to help.
