Rocky Horror Show, The
Neo-Rio says: Let's do the time warp again.... This game is as weird as the original musical. If you're not stripped naked in-game, you'll be blasted, hit by the motorcycle, or run out of time.

War of the Lance
Neo-Rio says: I don't play fantasy war games much, but this one got me hooked for a week or so as I plotted strategy against the computer.
|
Deathwish III
Neo-Rio says: In this dull yet violent game, you get to blast people into carnage with a rocket launcher! There was a furore over it at the time, although long outclassed by more modern and graphically realistic violent games which nobody bats an eyelid at today.
|
Orc Attack
Neo-Rio says: The first game I played from disk! Somebody read "Lord of the Rings" one too many times and came up with this game. It's surprisingly fun and panic inducing to hold off endless waves of orcs.
|
Lightforce
Neo-Rio says: A rather simple vertically scrolling shooter - blessed by a particularly excellent Rob Hubbard track however.
|
Xybots
Neo-Rio says: Although largely a disappointment on the C64 (thanks to the Spectrum look and feel), the game is still somewhat fun. It's like Gauntlet in 3D, and once you get used to the controls - you may have a blast.
|
Sanxion
Neo-Rio says: This game is one incredibly polished side-shooter. The game is extremely playable, the title music (classical music!) is great. The loader music was probably one of Hubbard's best tracks.
|
Hysteria
Neo-Rio says: Colourful side scrolling blaster. Pick up pieces of a puzzle, upon which you are greeted by a weird alien end-of-level boss. The music is quite memorable as well.
|
Spy vs Spy
Neo-Rio says: Classic game, first of a trilogy of like-minded games featuring MAD magazine's characters. Controls are a bit tricky, but once mastered it's a blast (literally) to outsmart your opponent with deadly traps.
