    IL2 Sturmovik is brilliant – but refuses to run for more than 5 minutes on my win 7 machine, it’s sequel is technically great but lacking in the campaign/planes department.

    Really loved fallout 1&2 as well.

    Scanned the entries so far and didn’t see it…..

    WORMS 🙂

    Phantasy Star on the Sega Master System, a game completed 3 times due to battery backup failure.

    One from the BBC B where you were in a massive haunted house of many rooms all filled with odd moving pixellated shite, early platform game. Any suggestions?

    This article is worth reading if you had a Speccy or C64. There are a few quotes from ZZAP and Crash magazine journalists. Really brought back memories. I still have my rubber keyboard Speccy 48k in working order. Wish I still had my Amiga 500.

    And Sensible Soccer, as above.

    Also, there was one where you were some kind of wizard, and you could change into animals. You had a limited number of changes per level, and basically each level consisted of changing into appropriate animals – so a cat to jump up, a baboon to climb a rope, and so on.
    No idea what it was called.

    Tanks, too.

    Just read through that whilst eating tea. Dinner. Whichever. Anyway. Really interesting read, thanks for posting.

    A mate and I completed BB on the ST. Genuinely, no cheats or anything other than the lives and few credits it gives you. It took us months.

    Used to love playing Gauntlet when I was a lad. Epic multiplayer in its day. How times change.

    Not quite a vintage as some, but this is epic.

    Hehe, that’s quite fascinating, even though I never played the game.

    That’s quite a feat, Pyjamarama was a swine of a game to complete.

    I had a walkthrough, does it still count?

    edit: thanks for the link, will be playing that again, cheers 🙂

    Turbo Esprit on the spectrum – the first game I can recall where you could ignore the goal and the time pressure and just go and have a muck about in the game world instead

    Honorable mentions to Silent Hill (the original), Half Life 2, Hunchback, Tony Hawks Pro Skater (1, 2 and 3), Rogue Spear, Metal Gear Solid 2, Colin McRae’s and Thrill Kill (!)
