  I’m surprised Elite didn’t get a mention. &nbsp;I loved that game. &nbsp;My other favourite was the Bards Tale.

  Really surprised at the lack of a mention for Uridium, Head Over Heels, or even The Great Escape 😢😂

  Wow, this video actually brought tears to my eyes. I remember going to town with my late younger brother, we were dead excited because we had our pocket money and all the way into town we were talking about which speccy game we were going to get. We got 2 in the end because both were 2 players, it was Matchday 2 and Target Renegade. We spent hours and hours playing it together. I miss him so much, he would have loved this video. 😓🙂

  Playing a videogame on a casette feels so surreal to me, Id love to collect one of those systems for fun one day, those Ultimate games look really fun

  I&apos;m surprised that the ZX Spectrum conversion of Elite didn&apos;t make the list.

  Batman the movie, run the gauntlet, jetpack &nbsp;were some of my favourites and chase HQ. Mate had a spectrum and didn’t really appreciate how good some games were until decades later.
