  • Choosing a single gameJust food for thought: Suppose you were allowed to play only one Speccy game for a period of a) today b) one week c) one month, what game would it be?

    They Stole A Million

    Brilliant game, could spend hours planning, working out routes of guards, camera times etc...

    One of the best games ever that I played, love it.
