  • Most playable gamesWhat do you think to be the most playable games? And what about the best games for two players?

    The most playable and enjoyable would have to be Skooldaze/Back 2 Skool. This would be due to the sheer originality of both of them.

    The best 2 player game is Crimebusters by Codemasters. What a fab game

  • Best scrolling shooters on speccy?I think one of most popular genres, besides mazes, was scrolling shooter. Can you remember any favorites to recommend, besides r-type

    Yeah i thought 1942 was very good, wasnt keen on 1943 for some reason despite being 2 player. Best 2 player game i think was Bubble Bobble

    Anyway back to shooters. Uridium i thought was an excellent sideways shoot-em-up
