And you would love it.
How would you play that? I guess it would play part of the cassette, make you choose an option, and fast foward to the result? That would result in horrible load times.

There is no question, as long as you didn't die of old age waiting for it to load.

It's the technology that was available. I guarantee if it was all you had to play games, you would use it. |
Of course, but it wouldn't be as big as it is now.

There are many reasons the the video game industry could be in a diiferent place than it is now. It was a pain in the ass though.
Oh how I remembet those days.
LOADM "pooyan.com"
EXEC
I miss those days. They had awesome games, but tapes sucked so badly. I remember waiting a minute or two in some games cause they had to go back and forward at times to search data. Upgrading to the floppy drive made life SOOOO much eaiser.
PS.
if your still wondering how games were played
Most games back on cassete did not load continuous data. They were more arcade like in that they laoded everything in to a tiny amount of ram. This is where high effecincy programming was a must, not like some of sloppy guys today that just let brute force of a system to all the work. You won't end up with any great stories or epic games on a cassete though. If you wanted bigger games you either had a cartridge game or used a floppy drice. Either way this was a cheap writeable media. Also for those wondering yes you could buy commercial games released on cassaette. There were a few rare games that did proceduarly load areas bot just results, but those were far and few between.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

I loved the music in that one. There was a sequel as well IIRC.
