Or...

I didn't recognise SC from "Terran One" -- but "Terran Two"? That shit would have had me slamming "StarCraft" into the entry box pretty damned fast grinhurt

Haha, thanks.. but I don't know all that much, a lot of them were Megadrive games that I wasn't able to tell from just snippets of music (Y U No include Outrun 2019??) so I had to check the trivia and screenshot hints to "get it" -- like Super Monaco GP or Italia 90.

The C64 is a home computer, not a console, and it ruled! This flash game could have, and really should have, been improved so much more -- including classic C64, Miggy and PC stuff. I loved my C64 <3

Did you ever play a game called Tai-Pan? My stepfather and I used to hate each other, but that one game always managed to make us forget that and actually work together Smile We must have played that for hundreds of hours, absolutely loving it Very Happy

Classic gamers! It was my mum that got me into gaming, she used to LOVE the Speccy... it was her favourite machine. Back in the very early 80s, we only had a black and white TV and she used to love playing Fahrenheit 451 --- she even completed it, despite the game having several puzzles relying on the use of colour grinhurt

First machine was "Enterprise" ZX Spectrum. I remember playing a worm game on it a lot, as well as trying (and failing to understand Very Happy ) Elite, there was also a Batman game on it, and some skateboarding game, and I vaguely remember something like Paperboy, but that might have been our first 286 or 386. Very Happy

Epic bump! A friend of mine posted this on my FB this morning --- it's nowhere near as merciless as the Nineties Gamer quiz, so any real SNES fan should fly through this quickly;
