Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?
Neo-Rio says: Educational games are rarely this good. Track down Carmen by following geographical clues. This game spawned a franchise of games, and even ended up as a cartoon series too.

Cobra
Neo-Rio says: Lame, unfair, and buggy game of a lame movie, but strangely playable with nice music. Here's a hint: When you get the machine gun, fire it and switch back to using knives. Note how much faster they can be thrown now - with unlimited ammo.

Arnie Armchair's Howzat Cricket Game
Neo-Rio says: One of the first games I played on the C64 as it came in the box. Fondly remembered for it's annoying title tune ditty, and the thrashings my family members took at it.

Donald Duck's Playground
Neo-Rio says: How do you make a game that girls will play endlessly? Put in some likeable characters, silly tasks, money, and shopping for junk you don't need. Sounds much like my own life though - minus Donald Duck.

Forbidden Forest
graveyardjohn says: Resident Evil? Pah! Here's where it started...
|
Bubble Bobble
Jimbo says: Probably the best 2-player platformer in existence, and a great arcade conversion! "I'm forever bloooowing bubbleeeees"...
|
Quinx
Neo-Rio says: They don't make games with plots like this anymore. You have to stop worms doodling over your precious piece of paper, and eating it into pieces!
|
Dropzone
Mayhem says: Utterly superb shooter based on Stargate by Archer Maclean. If you can't beat it, copy it!

Carry on Laughing
Neo-Rio says: Taking a page out of Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy, this platformer puts you up against all sorts of weirdness, such as the realm of the school dinner. (wtf?)
