Re: Best Computer Game..

My first ever computer game was "Scramble" on my VIC-20, and most of my teenage years were spent feedin the arcade machines, BUbble Booble, Super Mario Bros, and the one with the 4 characters that could play at the same time 1 was a warrior, a dwarf, a valkyrie, and an archer I think, this machine cost ma fortune lol

Re: Best Computer Game..

Football Manager for the Spectrum was bestest in Mini-Moomin Dave towers, trouble was I couldn't save it for some reason, which resulted in the eventual death of the afforementioned zx, having been left on for weeks and weeks due to my teams great success!!!

Also had a bit of a soft spot for Jet-Pack when it first came out...

Re: Best Computer Game..

My brothers and I used to play Football Manager for ages, we even had a printer for our spectrum (used the kind of rolls of paper you get at the checkout at the supermarket), we used to print out the results and table after each round. Dunno why? Probably didn't have any other use for it.

Way of the Exploding Fist for the commodore 64.
One of the most balanced games of all time and the best two player beat-em-up ever.
Twenty two years have not aged the game at all and the ultimate coffee break battle, now that it can be found thru emulation on a PC.

Re: Best Computer Game..

I was always a bigger fan of International Karate on the C64, must have been the Rob Hubbard tunes that did it for me. That and the fact I was hooked on the Karate Champ arcade machine.

Paradroid is hard to beat, it comes on those C64 DTV plug n play things so I often have a blast of it nowadays.

I have many favourite games over the years including, but not limited to, the following:

Atari VCS: Adventure
Spectrum 48K: Skool Daze
Commodore 64: Paradroid / Sentinel
Amiga 500: Dungeon Master / Lemmings
Amiga 1200: Frontier / Worms
Amiga CD32: Cannon Fodder
Sega Master System: Black Belt
Sega Megadrive: Micro Machines
Nintendo 64: Goldeneye / Perfect Dark
PlayStation: Micro Machines V3
Gameboy: Zelda
Gameboy Advance: Internation Karate / Eye of the Beholder

I've left off the recent consoles and no doubt missed some out there.
