aaah. 
Speccy or Commodore? Page 5
Does anyone remember a Spectrum game clled Jumping Jack?
I had a Spectrum, but I always had a better time playing on my mate's Commodore. He had games like Ghosts and Goblins, B.C. Bill, Yee Ahh Kung Fu and Daley Thompson's Decathlon.
Spectrum had a surly English charm about it.
Good debate. I had the +3 Spectrum (the black one with the disc drive) which loaded the games in no time at all. Problem with it though was you just couldn't get the games. The only ones I had were the ones that came with it which were the Ocean Collection and Basil the Great Mouse Detective. I had a Bush tape recorder too, just so I could play tape games. I could never finish Afterburner but when I completed Operation Wolf it was like the best thing ever.
Other good debates would be:
Atari ST or the Commodore Amiga,
SNES or Megadrive!
Megadrive when I was a kid, but I'm enjoying the SNES more as an adult. Sorry "Adult".

You look uncannily like my ex-brother-in-law at that time Marc. Except he was 6 foot 4 and had ginger hair. 
Poor chap!

God bless my mother, she thought she was helping me.
Repton was cool on it though
Repton, hurray!
Mmmm, Megadrive. Yum.
C64; I had a ton of games, I used to love that thing.

Oh yes. Oh my.
I remember briefly owning a Neo Geo too. Amazing games for the time. Which cost about a hundred quid each.
