My other favs sadly not on that compilation was jet set willy, manic minor & paperboy, paperboy being my fav for trashing a few windows ..... would love another go tho havent found it on the net yet.

Still cant beat the orange atari game of tennis tho [wonder if that is still in me dads collection somewhere
Here you go - just for you!!! http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infos...cgi?id=0003603

If you go to worldofspectrum.org and click on the 'archive' section you will see you can select 'games' and then just browse through to find what you're after - if you scroll down once you've selected a game you can see you can play it in your browser using a Java plugin which most browsers will have anyway. Not quite the same of sticking the tape in and going to make a brew for 10 minutes whislt the TV screams at you with those weird blue and yellow lines but hey....
