Welcome to Zeprom's
Planet Gorf page. As you can probably guess, Gorf was
his all time favourite arcade game, and when the opportunity arose in
September 1988 to purchase the machine it was quickly snapped up. Instead of me trying
to explain what's here, I'll pass you over to the man himself, Guddler... Arcade
and Videogame Reference Sites
http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Keep/1392/manuals.html Do you have a board or arcade machine in your collection but are without the manual or dipswitch settings documentation? Well, you may be in luck. This site has an absolutely huge library of online documentation sorted in alphabetical order just ready for you to download. Change that difficulty level, switch on that attract sound and much, much more! http://www.klov.com If you're trying to track down information on a board in your collection, be it monitor types/rotation, hardware details, marquee/cabinet screen-shots, dip-switch settings and more, this is most definitely worth a visit. I've found the site really useful when bidding for boards on Ebay and needed to obtain some more information about the game before putting a bid down. http://www.cs.colostate.edu/~dzubera/2600faq.html Although the main subject matter here is 2600/7800 related, there's also a huge chunk of material available that will be of real interest to most retro gamers who wish to discover more about this legendary company. Unlike many FAQ, this is updated on a regular basis, and the author is always on the lookout for any additions you may care to send his way. There's a load of material online here, so make sure you put some time aside to visit.
