in Propeller 1
Hi,
A while back I picked up one of those Hydra game stations, for the intent to learn a little about ide programming/basic game design.
I searched a bit here and there and it seems a while back the Hydra forum was asimulated with the prop 1 forum.
Can someone point me in the direction of these old threads? Or does no one use the Hydra anymore?
If that's the case, can I pull the prop1 chip out of the Hydra and stick a newer C3 in there?
Anyways.. cheers

You might try here though:

I noticed that the creator of the Hydra:
http://www.ic0nstrux.com/hydra-game-development-kit#.WjadfFVKvct
has a forum, but no entries:

They also designed the C3.
The Propeller MCU is identical on the Hydra and C3, but in a different physical form factor. DIP vs SMD.
If you type HYDRA in the search box in the upper right of the forum software, you will come up with a lot of hits.
Probably thinking of maccas's P8X system:
