Widely considered one of the best NTSC demos of all time, "Grand Posse" doesn't disappoint.  The graphics, the effects, the music, all come together in a smooth, nicely-build production that gives us around an hour of demo viewing time.  One wonders what Lupin and the crew could have produced had they stuck together as Plague.  Keep it Oldschool!

This BBS Ad has exactly the smooth, polished look you'd expect from a 1992 production. Keep it Oldschool!

Today we have a relatively new one from 2005!  This 3 pager by Necro has some really revolutionary routines in it, check out the video player in the last page.  Keep it Oldschool!

"Darkness" by FOE

Year: 1989

Platform: Commodore 64

Type: Demo (single-file, two-page)

Group: FOE

Code: The Phantom, Wrong Way

Music: EVS, Rock

Graphics: The Phantom, Wrong Way, Apollyon, Conan

An early FOE release, you can see the beginning of Phantom's graphic style - I'm guessing that weird rasterbar on the first page was Wrong Way's work.  The big scroller on the second page is LOOOOOOOOONG.  Keep it Oldschool!

I've always rather liked this one, it sums up what NTSC demos were in 1990 rather nicely - DYCPs, split rasters, big scrollers...

Keep it Oldschool!

I always like blow-through effects like the one on the logo here with the sinus behind it. Nice multipager from Havok, but not their best.

Keep it Oldschool!

The title says it all.  Nice early attempt at split rasters.

Keep it Oldschool!
