I listed Catch 23 on a certain auction site earlier .. thinking it was a spare..

but the spare was actually "cosmic shock absorber" , it's the artwork or that made me confuse them..

batman and batman the movie.

if someone says batman the movie, i know what they mean, but if they say batman, i have to have a little think about which version they mean, and even then they might have got confused too. :grin:

I always make a point of saying which exact version when listing .e.g. movie .. isometric .. flip screen

I was on about the artwork as well though

MH Barbarian on the ST was pretty good. It takes a little while to get use to the icon-driven controls (without which it would beentirely forgettable) but it does require skill and timing and makes it into quite a fun game.

Not played the Speccy version however
