[pubzombie]

well thats just fookin great. no support for new users or the old ones who have not got all the files.

 

[euro48k]

well thats just fookin great. no support for new users or the old ones who have not got all the files.

Sadly they will just have to download their ROMs elsewhere .

I think mention of the site was ok before as long as it was kinda ambiguous and didn't give exact url.

I always liked it and was good for gp2x specific stuff like roms for gp2x mame or pc engine cd rips with ogg audio. some other places have ogg rips to save space but kinda scattered around.

A fair amount of people here did use the site though wouldn't mention it here of course. I think it went down one other time before though.

yeah there was always other places for roms and such but was nice to have a gp2x specific torrent site. the sd monsterpacks were good to get new users started.

Seeing all the crap that is on that site now, I guess they forgot to renew their domain name in time and now some domain caper quickly registered it.

At least the new home page offers you some pr0n links while you're waiting for the old one.

 

[PoisonedV]

Is it just the domain name, or the site? theres been some drama as of late

 

[craigix]

Hmmm that's odd. Maybe it has a normal 'account' URL that points to it too? It was great for getting versions of apps which you knew would work.

Just as long as we don't lose the unofficial Pandora blog too - I use it to get all the latest news, it's quicker than checking my email.

Does anyone know where one might find GP2X-compatible versions of Amiga games? Amiga games are freely available on numerous abandonware sites, but Uae4AllGP2X seems picky about which versions of games it wants to boot.

GP2XTorrents had verified packs. Are there any other places where such packs might be found now that it's down?

Just sent the original site owner a message - will post if he replies (last online here around 3 weeks ago).

 

[sehs33]

So.. has the owner responded to any of your inquiries?

I just got the trial membership at domaintools.com.

Looks like if the site was up it should be at this IP:

http://68.178.232.100/

Unfortunately, it is not.

Nope, heard nothing back ... Just checked there and he has not been online here since January.

Used to love this site. Hope someone takes up the challenge to create something similar.

 

[euro48k]

let's hope the owner is ok and ain't busted or something bad ..
roms are everywhere in this internet jungle
but something made especially for gp2x users .. well ...RIP
