I know exactly what you're talking about and I havent see it in years. Are you talking about the flash screen at the start with the devil and the angel?
If you are, I hadn't a clue what was going on either!
Yep, had a look on youtube and that's it. Haha, thank you for solving that mystery

Ah here, I've bit me tongue long enough reading this thread, but I won't have E.T. slandered! If you've actually played it thru to completion, you'll know it's actually a good game.
And Stone Roses, wtf man, you're actually contributing here and not trolling anymore!!

Polywha? I remember when Hard Drivin' and Race Drivin' were the most expensive machines in the arcade. 50p and £1 respectively :eek:!
Bought them for the C64 and wasn't impressed. You'd think the slow framerate would make the turns a doddle, but the devs soaking the controls in treacle seemed to solve that.0 -

Yeah I remember that. Cleared it in 20 minutes inside in a shop 0 -
I know EA has been involved in some lemons over the years but Shaq Fu must be up there with the worst. Think i would rather cuts my thumbs off than play this sh1t.

Shaq-fu was also ported to the Amiga. Nice animation and graphics but bewildering gameplay.I know EA has been involved in some lemons over the years but Shaq Fu must be up there with the worst. Think i would rather cuts my thumbs off than play this sh1t.
And it looks like I missed out by only playing Ivan Ironman Stewart's Super Off Road Racer (it's full title) on the C640 -

It was a good game but at time it was out; well we know the video game crash era. That's why most people hate it.0 -

James Pond was awesome! I actually loved that game.
Super Hang-On never failed to annoy me when I was younger.
Tedious stuff, trying not to crash, wobble or skid off the track.0 -

then again Atari released a whole lot of crap back then.0

I only got introduced to Chaos on the spectrum in the last few months. It really is amazing and one of the best multiplayer games ever. 8 player games are just crazy. Also played some rebelstar raiders and laser squad. Laser Squad is probably one of the most visually impressive games I've seen on the Spectrum and it's a great game to boot. Love the rocket launcher and how all the scenery and walls are fully destructible.

many a time it nearly came to blows playing Laser Squad and we would have to leave the room when deploying units
I actually sent off for the expansion pack back in the day to give you 3 more maps...hmm maybe thats where Infinity Ward got their idea from
you can play Chaos online here and it also has a great remake with nice graphics but no Gooey Blobs though

Argh, what is it about the VB that makes me want one? I know most of the games are pathetic, & it's more of a bragging right really, but I still can't convince myself of a good reason NOT to own one
Novelty like 32x,same with amiga,winuae is more stable and affordable than the real thing itself.0 -

Exactly, it doesn't make sense really. It's definitely a sickness 0 -

Awful awful tie-in for an awful awful tv show. Memorable only as it was my first ever computer game. It had the typical "denton design" character-switch and icon-submenu just to make the game even less fun.0 -

I had the the other Transformers game which was possibly even worse despite the cool intro.

They didn't seem to quite get the concept that Hot Rod and Rodimus Primes are the same guy.0 -

Doesn't look half bad. At least the scrolling isn't slower than the main character!
