I had a kempston - too brilliant !

JetSetWilly what a game.

Spyhunter ????????

WayoftheExplodingFist ???????

I had a helicopter sim called Tomahawk i think: spending ten quid on that was like serious money then

God me - good times !!!!!!!!

I could only play the game on a sat. as I was only allowed to then as we only had one TV.

I think my brother had about 10 legit games, the other 1000 were copies

 

[dan_bo]

yeah man. having to turn up the tone on the tape recorder to get it to load.

 

[dan_bo]

none of this CD $hit.

 

[HLaB]

And you could fit 10 games or more on one tape.

 

[longers]

That Tomahawk game, was it all line drawings and you had a foldy 3D reader thingy for reading the access code thingy?

Attic Attack was a bit mental as I remember, lots of running into and out of rooms and battering things or getting battered by them

There was one a bit like JSW (lovely surreal game) with a badger in it no?

 

[dan_bo]

Oh yeah.

bit of a combat wulf/ rommel's revenge kinda guy meself. as Yenotaph sez, spy hunter was a good waste of a couple of years.

Way of The Exploding fist was one of my faves.
Nackered me keyboard membrane playing Daley's Decathalon. (had to go Shifnal to get it replaced)
3D Death Chase, Chuckie Egg, Jet Pac, JSW, MM, Dark Star, Tir Na Nog.
God, I wish I could get one now!!

Still got mine in the roof - the Ultimate games were the ones I'd buy - got loads of them. Many others were copied of course. And all that 'tweaking' of the cassette player to get better loading.....

Got a kempston and quickfire, and the Currah Speech thingy box - so Lunar Jetman talked..... and one of those bog roll printers.... think it all still works....
