    daily Thompsons Decathlon on Atari 2600 was ridiculous doing 1500m worse than actually running it :D. Remember passing joystick round family to finish it ahah

    Yeah there's one near the football stadium in Blackpool I believe. It got strong opposition when it was being planned though which is why it took so long for it to open.

    I've recently bought the Ps1 version. Speedball 2100. Great game but quite difficult.

    Missile Command in arcade. There was a gaming arcade on shambles street till mid 80's and I was so good on missile command I could literally have played it all day for 10p. If there was a world championship then Id have won!!

    Edit: Honourable mention for the Hobbit on spectrum. 'Kill Bilbo', 'Kill Thorin' never seemed to work though

    Food pricing is great there too! My personal favourites are Bishi Bashi, the dancing game you play with your hands on a circle shape (cannot remember the name), House of the Dead 3 and pinball. It’s walking distance from my house so I’ve wasted many an hour there.

    Or Swos as it became, and Kick off 2 as well which were my favourite footy games.
    Track n field (and Daley Thompson's) which knackered your wrist and fingers lol.
    Ohh and Cannon fodder, which had a controversial theme and got into trouble with the BL and the newspapers.

    Just loaded an emulator onto my steam deck. Playing Super Mario World from the SNES at the minute. Still brilliant.

    Great thread bringing back some great memories! Started with Pong in early 70's before getting an Atari 2600. Had various games systems over the years - currently got Xbox! Favourite game of all time is Resident Evil 4 on Gamecube - absolute classic! Half Life 2 isn't bad either. Enjoy COD games and Red Dead as well. Got a few retro games - Kung Fu Master was my go to go along with Ghosts N Goblins
