Does anyone have a list of games that were issued/reissued under different titles?
I have bought several games and when they have arrived I have found that I have already played them. Often US titles and UK titles are different.
Any info that does not include stupid is welcome I already know the stupid bit and should research more however game descriptions are often very similar for different games.

Sorry -- the stupid thing? I think you're being way too hard on yourself!

Hi Bob,

Here's a short list of games off the top of my head, there are no doubt many more:

Sherlock Holmes vs Arsene Lupin aka Sherlock Holmes Nemesis
Crystal Key II aka Evany
The Cameron Files: Amenophis aka The Cameron Files: Pharoah's Curse
Fahrenheit aka Indigo Prophecy
Journey to the Moon aka Voyage
Martin Mystere aka Crime Stories
Shadow of Memories aka Shadow of Destiny

Hi BobS

OT, you said

Might it be the lyrics to "I Heard It Through the Grapevine", by Marvin Gaye?
"People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear."

Cheers

Noel

Hi Noel,
Thanks for that.
I have now done a bit of research and unless Marvin Gaye recorded a cover version, I think his was 1969. I heard it from my grandfather in the mid 50s and it stuck in my memory. Now I feel old he also said it in Welsh coming from Merthyr perhaps more Dylan than Marvin.

I am now keen to find out where it came from and will research further. Not sure this is very on topic but interesting

Thanks again
Bob

Who could ever forget:

Daughter of Serpents/The Scroll

There is an 8th level of BAAGS reserved for those who actually have both of these

Do you have both of them? Maybe Syd?

I do
I expect Syd has at least that many!

Re hearing and seeing - still very OT

Thinkexist.com attributes it to Ben Franklin

Noel

I half believe that.
