Amstrad PCW arrives to CEZ

karnevi · 31-07-2008
The Amstrad PCW was an 8 bits computer dedicated to the word processing. Its affordability and ease of use gave it a great success in some countries, like Spain.

Some companies, even, made games for it. In Spain, Opera, Aventuras AD y OMK tried and get it, although the computer had not sound and its monitor was monochrome.

Today we begin to upload PCW games, thanks to Kachorro, a long time PCW preservator. To play them you'll need the Joyce emulator, available in the Amstrad emus section.

These are the 7 games added today:
-Corsarios
-Golden Basket
-Gonzzalezz
-Goody
-Jai Alai
-Mythos
-Sol Negro

-Cosa Nostra

CEZ has a new layout

karnevi · 14-07-2008
We present you the new layout. The design has changed in both CEZ and the Zones.
We've decided to simplify it, making it more similar to the forum. Moreover, it will be easier for us to update the page, and we think it has a better style.
All without losing our identity: we maintain the header, the colours and the place of almost everything...

The news with the new layout are::
-Search box: now you can seek for games, developers, etc. directly in the page, without using Google.
-Now you're able to leave comments in articles and interviews sections.
-#downloads in the game cards: now you can compare and know wich version of a game is more popular.

Finally, let's take a look to the evolution:
