Some of the best co op games I played on the Speccy were IK+, Target: Renegade, Silkworm & SWIV. -

The 128k version of The Ninja Warriors had a nice bit of clear speach once it had loaded up.
Also SWIV had a cheat mode that played a very clear sample of Ripley from Aliens. -

I hated the original Xenon, found it really boring. The second one had amazing graphics and sound, but the gameplay was a bit unbalanced, and unfairly hard in places - I liked SWIV much more, and that was on the Spectrum. -
