  • Laser SquadI'd forgotten how good this game really is. Strewth...... is that the time.

    Laser Squad and Rebelstar were also the best games I played on my Amstrad CPC464. I had loads of excellent 2-player games of both of them. Grenades hidden in plant pots! Great stuff.

    I totally agree. Chuckie Egg is one of the top 5 Speccy games of all time. Just so playable and the sound effects still make me smile to this day.

    Truely is a game you just quickly pick up and have a good go at .
