Match Point, great tennis game for the Spectrum, IMO the best. Never reached the third level (finals).
I remember over a quarter of a century ago (!!) I was good at that game, timing shots off the edge of the racquet etc. Now, I just end up shouting at the screen and screaming, "Cheat!"
Batman the movie. I was expecting it to be better than this. Disappointed.:-(
I for one always liked the Spectrum version, even though it is a bit too easy to complete. I thought the physics on the first and fifth (platform) levels was excellent, and better than on any other home version. The Batmobile level is a bit of a disappointment, but probably better than had they tried to shoehorn a first-person racing element into the 8-bit edition.
Congrats! I'm amazed you survived for so long, though I'm almost envious of the delayed gratification it must bring!
Oh I have DL'd CGD, can't promise I'll utilize it immediately but I will sometime :D
As for the going a long time, I could play Speccy games it was just really awkward, I had to individually drag n' drop games into the emu's to get them working. Couldn't open them from their menus.
You can see after a while how that would get extremely annoying, and it did.
Still playing FOTY, i got relegated to Division 3 as i was saving money for goal cards. I'll be using money to buy some more to hopefully get back up to Division 2 (and beyond!)
Trashman for the millionth time probably since the first time it was ever was loaded up. Could this game qualify for being "scary" as I still crap my pants a few streets in when the cars are faster (bloody boy racers!) and narrowly avoid a certain death.

Never went on the Safe Ladder-Climbing course I suppose.
Unbelievably - as Head Over Heels is my favourite Speccy game - I've never played this before.
It's bloody hard!

Maybe I need more practice :-)

All versions of this game are crap, even the arcade.

Didn't like the coin-op though.
I'm making up for lost time, I've got about 20 new games to play, and a few thousand old ones to just enjoy like I always did :D

Very happy to have my plus 2 up and running along with the Android Wav player Tapdancer!
I've never won that game, it's still good though!
I love this game. It's totally bonkers!
Develop a red eye addiction and see what happens... ;)
Wasn't that one of Don Priestly's last Spectrum games?
I've never played it.
