Commando, Attic Attack and Lords Of Midnight were 3 of my favourites.

Seem to remember a Sherlock Holmes 'adventure' game as well. The name escapes me. It was one of those text adventures. That was quality. Thinking about it, it may have just been called 'Sherlock'. :p

Can anyone name another 'text adventure game' which featured a puzzle in it about 'Charles Atlas'. I seem to remember there being 'ski lifts' in it or similar. :|

Yeah I played that on the 64 it was from the same guys that did the Hobbit published by Melbourne House I think sure it was just called Sherlock.
 
Nearly all those elite converts on the speccy were bang on, bombjack, commando, ghosts and goblins, space harrier, paperboy..

A real run of quality right there.

Ohh and in ths months retro gamer, there's a 30th special.. as you'd imagine i guess:)
 
I've still got my 48k tucked away somewhere, someone please tell me it's worth a million quid now?:D

Played so many great games on it, although Sherlock by Melbourne House? was played to death!

The ZX Spectrum is 30 years old. The successor to Sir Clive Sinclair's ZX81 - at the time the world's best selling consumer computer - it introduced colour "high resolution" graphics and sound.


It also offered an extended version of Sinclair Basic, a computer language with which hundreds of thousands of users were already familiar.

Just prefer it, it cant be as annoying as when people reply to multiple posts but do it all seperately right?

Perhaps I should go and re-edit every post Ive made and make it blank? Wonder how long that would take...hmmmm

But I don't understand why some people do it, it's a minority thing but...

I see your name on the left that's all that matters but to sign your name at the bottom it's like going into a conversation and ending it with your name everytime. Do you do that in real life? :confused:

At least just put it in your signature

- EDIT - No need to edit all your other ones, just take it out for future ones I used to get into HUGE arguments with Gibbo doing it, it's almost a form of OCD/AUTISM

Looks like I'll have to stick you on ignore, sorry man don't like doing that as only one person has ever been on my ignore list. :( :(

Might not bother other's but it's as bad as rustling crisp packets in a cinema

Thats not a problem, Ill just add it to the list of characters flaws I personally need to deal with, glad to see youve got an appropriate solution of equal magnitude to deal with it otherwise it would have kept me up all night...

Ill need to make sure people dont quote me
