      Which one? Been looking for one for a while for the PC. Seems the game makers are mostly interested in dumbed down console games.
      Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it
      Feist - I Feel It All
      Feist - The Bad In Each Other (Later With Jools Holland)

          Yeah, list any worth having a look at and I'll see which takes my fancy.

          I see Hearts of Iron III is on the horizon.

          Used to play Eastern Front 1941 on the Atari when I was a teen. Been looking (though not very hard!) for something similar ever since. It was very easy to get into but still a thinking man's game. I'd try it using an emulator, but expect it's like all those hammer horrors, nothing like what you remember them.

              All at the same time?

              Do you never just fancy a game of chess, or even tick tack toe!?

                Blimey, I remember that - one of the games that came with my 800XL.

                It's a shame SSI are no longer around.
                Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

                  So you're the scrote who nicked it!


                  Did you find the ascii porn I had on one of the cassettes? Maybe that's where Fortune Green got it from. All your TPD belong to me!

                      This excuse for a BBC back slapping pre christmas knees up with its generous lashings of licence fee paid airtime for its wannabe B-list/newsreader-celebs is wearing thin.

                      The real children in need is / were those like Baby P. Not a single mention of that on air tonight it seems.
