The Old Vic

- or hopefully adding a nostalgic sample to a nice project.




This is actually short tribute to the work of someone else - I did just add a bit of "older" stuff.

A few days back Dennis D. Spreen posted a really nice post: MOS6502-delphi – a MOS 6502 CPU emulator for Delphi - if you haven't seen it already, check it out.

UPDATE: I did actually get the key matrix correct the day after - and submitted code to Dennis' GitHub where it is now included: https://github.com/Dennis1000/mos6502-delphi

The Game is On - in one line of code

- or how to play around with the Steam Web API and a honorable mentioning of a nice new game on Steam build using Delphi.


The title of this post could indicate that this is about the BBC series "Sherlock" - which I would highly recommend - but this is not what this is about.


Almost 4 years back I did a small client for myself that did consume various APIs to get a unified client and overview of the various games I had acquired over the years on various platforms like - Battle.net, Desura (now OnePlay it seems), Uplay, GOG, OriginEA, PSN and Steam - combined with data from TheGameDB and others.
