Test Drive II.
Was totally addicted to it on spectrum yet I tried to play it couple of times on emulator and, well, it's not really, erm, that good anymore :)
Maybe add Kung Fu to that list, but apart from that most games I liked back then I still like to play today.

A lot of it is to do with the fact that a lot of Speccy games you play its a quick 5 minutes jobby then go onto the next one.

A masterpiece in its time but for emulators its one of the worst ones to play i think
No offence but I can never understand what's so great about Elite? I've tried to play it many times, and each time it made me sick. Even back in 80s...
For me personally i saw Elite and thought it looked quite poor, saw all the adverts and hype and didnt get into it. Gave it a go once and back then i suddenly got into it BIG time. Yeah the graphics were boring vectors but doing runs to another galaxy to make a profit or doing missions etc, back then it was just a huge huge open world you could discover and was amazing.
I really became hooked on it, like i say now i wouldnt play it as its way too basic but back then it was very good. Used to play X Beyond the Frontier which is a PC version of Elite which is brilliant.
