| "David and Richard Darling first
started writing computer games when they were in their early teens and
still at school. They duplicated the cassettes themselves and sold them by
mail order, taking small advertisements in magazines. From these
beginnings David and Richard became contract programmers. They wrote and
sourced games for major best sellers. In October of 1986 the Darlings set
up CodeMasters, their own company. From the beginning they were determined
to sell only the best possible games at the lowest possible price. One
title, BMX SIMULATOR, went on to become one of the worlds best selling
games. In less than a year, CodeMasters has a string of Top Ten hits to
it's name. The company was the best selling software house in Britain. |
