  • Movie conversions.As part of my website, im planning on doing a section based on movie conversions, so what are everyones favourite/most hated games based on movies?

    The speeder bike level should just have been 3D Deathchase. And that should have been made law as soon as it was announced a game of 'Jedi was to be released.

  • new and probably worst game ever :)bored by perfect things ? try this: [url="http://fikoviny.webz.cz/FF.TZX"]fikoviny.webz.cz/FF.TZX[/url]

    I'm gonna have to play this 'Caverns of Kontonia' game, just to see how really bad it is.

    Surely it can't be as bad as 'OLYPIAD 86' by Atlantis, or (IMHO) the worst game of all time ASTROIDERS by Pulsonic on the VIC20.

    Elite is widely recognised as the biggest selling game of all time. However that is across all formats too. But the spectrum sales must have been still very high.
