Desert Island Tapes: Juan F Ramirez
Adventure, mystery, action, colourful... indispensable Ultimate game (and who knows? the desert island might have wild animals, jungles, natives, medallion pieces, classical music echoes... )
Knight Lore ...the best stuff for 8-bits.
A lovely nightmare.
Do what you didn't dare back in the day... or did you dare?
Highway Encounter
Costa Panayi's masterpiece
Again - Costa Panayi's masterpiece!
Green Beret
What if the island is home to a secret Soviet base???
Wot no Fred?!
Yes these are my fave game choices. Fred is not there, mainly because:
- There's no ancient Egypt ruins in the island
- Fred is #10 in my top ten
I'd choose Dr. Ian Logan's "The Complete Spectrum Rom Dissasembly". Why? Well, every speccy coder talks a lot about it so it must be cool!
My old Spectrum Plus, now with a DivMMC lite card!!!
Well, a beer barrel with tap seems a luxury item on a desert island...
(It'll last a week - Ed).
How will you cope?
I was a boy scout when I was a kid, so I'm practically and mentally prepared to survive long enough in such hell, as I've been in the most terrible summer camps. However, the idea of not having nail clippers or dental floss worries me.
Which game would you banish to a DIFFERENT island?
Treasure Island Dizzy. I hate that character much, and for me, the title would be a terrible irony on a desert island.
Any ambitions?
Finishing Everyone's a Wally has always been a goal, so cool and so difficult... Learning M/C to become a true games coder sounds great, as being a CSSCGC contestant is so depressing!
