    Actually I DID mean to mention Flying Shark as one of the best in another thread. That game is awesome, come on. monochromatic alright, but new sprites kept coming your way, I thought it impossible to fit in memory.

  • 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

    Flying Shark, and Ikari Warriors, both mightily nice on arcade but both looking s well on Spec, and playability soo finely tuned.
