I've still got an Atari 520ST in my mothers loft :) Fantastic machine. Still in use in a lot of recording studios.

I liked exploding fist on my Amiga, with its array of 16 keys to memorise for the moves, IK+ was good aswell, your pants fell down if you stood still and you could do a jumping splits kick and take out two people.

And yes I still play exploding fist, only I'm and adult now.

My first was an proper PC (not speccy or VIC) was an Amstrad.....6128 cheap 464 pikeys.

Hmm, let me blow the dust off my memories.

Atari 400 (16K), Vic 20, C64, Amiga 500, Amiga 1200, (internal HDD and 68303 accelerator), P166 PC.

Then it got silly, never bought a PC since, just built them from then on.

Bringing the thread back onto topic, this really is a lovely game. And for once quite tough to get through.

However none of your Amigas or Spectrums will play this one.

On a top end machine ( and now my shiny new radeon 9800 shows it's colours  :D ) it looks great. The controls (keyboard or free Thrustmaster) are smooth as silk and if Tomb Raider AOD had done this Eidos would have benn billionaires  :)

It will be maiking it's way to The Exchange forum in the not too distant future, so when you see it grab it. But make sure you can play it on your PC. You'll really need a DX9 card although a 64mb GeForce 3 or equivalnet will chug along slowly.
