I know thats a tuff one, but roughly how many games are there in the Archive? Maybe there are still a few buried gems there that no one has bothered to mention.

    The games club does this, the games no one has ever heard of usually end up being terrible.

    Not all that difficult, as the stats are listed here:

    http://www.worldofspectrum.org/archive.html

    So that's:
    • 10,724 Games
    • 2,217 Text Adventures
    • Some portion of the 1,622 Educational programs
    • About 60% of the 2,148 Type-ins
    • All of the 193 Adult Games

    Which would add up to roughly 15,000 games in one form or another. If you played one game a day it would take you 41 years to play all of them.
