    :D that was a mad laugh, i played the floppy version for about a week solid on my brothers pc & then bought it for myself a couple of days later.

    i might give it a lash now...
    i wonder if there are any 3d patches for it like j/z doom...
    i think they used the quake engine, so prolly not...

    First ever game - Hungry Horace (C64)
    Bolder Dash, Loved that game (C64)
    Creature 1 & 2(C64) - Some of the puzzles in C2 were great where you had to save a creature...
    Dan Dare (C64) - Could never get out of the underground layer before the time ran out!!! - Goddam Mekon!!
    Spooks(C64) - Literally spent ages trying to complete this, never happened...
    1942(C64)... Nuff said
    and the all time classic that I sent away for.......... Wheatabix Vs the Titchies!!!
    and those Dizzy games took up a lot of my time...

    I cant believe you said Maria Kart 64. It was an ok game, but compared to the first one on the SNES it was crap!

    There was a retro gaming competition in Dundalk IT a few months back with just Mario Kart and SF2.... More of these events should be held I think!

    Me and my mates constantly play both MK and Sf2, Every time were down my gaf with a few beers, we have a good few first to 3 wins in battle mode, at €2 a go.
    One nite i won €40 on just 1 game.
    (consider me addicted)
