Anyone remember Jetset Willy , Dizzy, and Manic Miner. I loved those games
There's one for the Amstrad I could never find, well two. One where you were this Egyptian person killing monsters on a sidescrolling screen and one weird Alien thing a 3rd was this bouncing catepillar. I loved those

Laser Squad was great.
I also wasted a lot of my life playing Chuckie Egg and Rik Dangerous.
Elite was the daddy of 8 bit gaming for me. Then on the ST it was Dungeon Keeper.It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide

And what about the 'classic' Atari Combat and Space Invaders ?
Do you remember in Space Invaders, if you flicked the 'reset' switch twice, you got 2 shots at a time ? I could get through screens and screen of invaders, without losing a single life. It almost got boring !0 -
I think the very first game I ever played was on my friends Atari 2600 console called ADVENTURE
Awesome
