ZZoom. It's way more fun to shoot the hostages than to actually bother saving the little gits. -
Operation Thunderbolt - still considered any good?Work on 1989 continues. I loved 1988's Operation Wolf, and 1989's Cabal was a nice development of the concept. I'm now playing (and watching the RZX…

The main sprite in Thanatos is pretty amazing.
Someone said hostages which I would second.
The graphics in Robocop II are the peak of the Ocean stuff from that era - although I find the game pretty unplayable -
most expensive speccy gameAnyone know what it was? I have Eureka in my head for some reason...
"Hostages" set me back a fair few quid... think it might actually be the last full-price game I bought. -
128k extrasI had a 48k, no matter how much I hinted to my parents that I [i]really[/i] wanted a 128k they never got me one So what did I miss out on. I'm not …
Hostages had a "extra-stage" if you play it in 128k (rappel). Also there were a number of "128k only" games.
On the other hand, Cybernoid II 128k played OK in my 48k (no music, what a suprise!). -

Tried to play 'Hostages' but it crashed (sob!), i got a message saying the file was corrupted.
So i stuck on 'american gangster' instead and watched that, good film. -
Good 128k +2 emulator for Windows XPWhat emulator would you recommend for windows XP, to emulate 128k +2 Spectrum. I want to play Turbo Esprit like I did all those years ago! :-)
I've been using Spectacular for the past couple of years with no problems. Although a couple of games have crashed (Hostages and Sam Stoat). -

Correct of course.
Here is a new one:
"Operation initiated! Rescue the hostages!" -

Hostages, setting of the troops on the roof, there is helicopter landing sequence, the helicopter sound is almost realistic (and it's only good setting of AY registers, it's not sample). -

i seem to remeber that a french game titled "hostages" or something had a relatively long intro, a bit in a film fashion.
edit: it should be [URL="http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=0002354"]this one[/URL]. -
