games with digitized speechI can only think of one... METEOR STORM by Quicksilva Are there many more?
one of the best ones was 19: Boot Camp
Robocop and Chase HQ were both good.
Worst ones were I-Ball and that codemasters 3d space shootemup (with the C.H.A.O.S. speech). -

Thanks All,
I will modify the code for the faster push pop, move the buffer memory and see what happens.
Many thanks -
Speccy games _better_ than their arcade versionsI can only think of one so far - Hunchback. It is cack on the arcade version, try it on MAME. Daren
Ghosts'n'Goblins - a fine example of a classic Speccy conversion that I enjoy more than the MAME one :)
And couldn't agree more on Commando, Bomb Jack and Chase HQ. Really nice. -
I forgot the name of this gameOn a Spectrum I used to play quite a cool game but I don't remember how it was called. In this game you ride in a car and you should run over your op…
Not much to go on there... but at a guess
"Turbo Esprit" or "Chase HQ"

Chase HQ, definitely. Still challenging after all these years, still looks and sounds good, and you can dip in and out of it easily. -

these games arent perfect. Target Renegade cant be perfect, it's easy to the point of being no challenge at all.
chase hq... too boring
