match day 2 (spectrum + 2)
kick off 2 (amiga)
mike tysons punch out (nes)
renegade (spectrum)
yie ar kung-fu (bbc micro)

might as well add GRANNY'S GARDEN on the bbc micro too for anyone who went to primary school in the early to mid 80's

my favourite memory of retro gaming was one night waiting 55 minutes for the evil dead game to load...there was a count down on the screen and no word of a lie with just 4 seconds remaining (my sister and me eyes fixed on the screen ) there was a flash of lightning from the storm brewing outside and the whole street went out with a power cut.

was fucking gutted.

even more so when we loaded it the next day and it was shite :-))(

Ah the old primary school BBC's....I remember a game on them at school. It was called hide and squeak or summat like that, you had to find a mouse that was hidden somewhere in a house.

No the original sensible was immense, a real game of skill as if you tried running with the ball and changing direction you would always lose it.

Used to play a fair bit of the ST conversion of ikari warriors as well. Top stuff, especially 2 player.
