zybex came out in '88 not '89

well, according to the copy i have for my speccy anyway, I know I'm being pedantic, but I'm only saying because when I first found the game I checked lemon and it had it down as '88 so I always thought that the c64 was the original version based on the fact it came out earlier, which was not true to begin with.

    Copyright date does not necessarily equal release date.

    You're right, I guess a more accurate way of checking would be to look at the review scans from mags, and doing that shows that the C64 version came out well over a year earlier, The game was ancient by the time it came out on the spectrum.

    It's a tricky one - with the C64 and Spectrum Books, we went with copyright dates since there is less confusion than with release dates. It does throw up the odd anomaly - like Axis Assassin is dated 1983 but wasn't released in Europe until 1985.
