    "Elite" on the Spectrum?

    All these years of advanced graphics & tecnology and I have yet to see a game that comes even close to this classic.

    it was groundbreaking at the time... but another game that had similar impact was 'Midwinter' go anywhere, get in different vechicles, explore, massive area to search - ingenious game. Proper first person serious game around...

    Mario Kart on the SNES is the only game worth playing at all times.
