Is it Pirates! ?

Yep, towels and linen are included

edit: but don't forget to bring your best socks - as I've understand the house rules, they like us to keep our shoes outside. :D

Oh well, at least you tried. Hopefully we'll meet up next Mittens  (nod)

@bicilotti: I've tried a 16-day weather forecast which is almost as accurate as guessing :D
It seems like we will encounter gorgeous weather with only slight rain on Tuesday. Temperatures should be around 24°C. I think you'll be safe as long as you bring something a little rainproof.

@cat for analog to hdmi you'd need an active converter instead of just an adapter. But most of the newer flat-screens still have an VGA port (at least mine does). You just need to make sure to bring a cinch audio cable as well

@Arjon: I'm pretty sure, they have a tiny wifi-router stored in a closet and no dedicated LAN wires across the house. So yes, it might be possible, but not very convenient.

@cat: I think those flat screens all have a hdmi port, so it should be easy to connect a computer to the screen. If don't forget it, I'll bring a 2m hdmi cable.

Aw man, I feel like I'm the worst host in the history of Mittens  :~( If there's one thing I've learned, then it's listening to Snarky and overbook the place like there's no tomorrow. I hope for the best that I don't scare away the rest of you.

But congrats for your new job, it's understandable not to argue with your future boss without having signed the contracts yet. You can still send us a postcard to make us happy :)

That baron-cup needs to be officially added to the boards :D

Anyhow, unfortunately nobody guessed the invisible game (sorry, I was distracted by trying to repair another C64)
Here's the next obscure title:

Hint: A fountain of youth member's name is part of the title :)

Hehe, did you just type in "examine door" - or does it have a more advanced parser?

As much as I want it to be "F15-Strike Eagle III - The Movie - The Game"... kconan and surplusguy are both partially right - it's A320 by Loriciels.
My cousin had this on his Atari (520?), but I doubt it survived long in his disk box.

Anyway: kconan was first - but nice try, Surplusguy :D

Hint: There are two games with the same title. One is a real flight sim and pretty decent, the other one is this game.

Why didn't they apply any postproduction tricks to these poor digitized images...

Hehe, I have admit I find a FlightSim Adventure somewhat intriguing :)

I just love the look of the early french titles from Infogrames, Exxos and Coktel :)
But let's continue with this one:
