    Apart from it taking me ages to figure out how not to die on those sardines going up to the right island :)
    TID was the first game I ever completed. Still have a quick run through it these days just for the enjoyment of it. 48K mode though. Not a fan of the music while playing.
    Hands up whose first action when loading it up for the first time was to take a dip in the ocean? :D

    Have just been playing Biff. Looks really good actually.

    Probably not, but I have this thing about Players games. I can't help but adore them, even Shanghai Karate. Fantasic, I say, even though I can quite clearly see how limited it is. Ah well, at least I know I'm mad.

    Not really, I thought quite a few of the regular Players games were pretty good, it's the Players Premier releases that really stunk. I thought Shanghai Karate was OK too although totally bollocks really, Shanghai = China, Karate = Japan always wondered about that?

    Surely it should've been called Okinawa Karate, or Shanghai Kung fu :lol:

    Sorry just being awkward :D

    Dunno if it was the first thing I did, but I definitely took him swimming upside down a few times :lol:

    *sheepishly puts up hand*

    In most games, one of the first thing I do is deliberately kill the main character to see what the death sequence looks like, does that make me evil?

    Especially when you press fire to pick up a coin but have to do it really quickly coz the snorkel has made its way to the top of your item list... and then you press for that nanosecond too long and drop the snorkel and your carefully nurtured egg does the upside floaty death dance :(
