I had been through four consoles and five jobs before most of the games in the notes had come out.
My top five were virtually chiselled on stone tablets by comparison :)
Off the top of my head:
- Karate Champ II (arcade)
- Pac-Land (arcade)
- Gryzor aka Contra (Amstrad CPC)
- Sorcery (Amstrad CPC)
- Xenon (Atari ST)
Oh wait, Elite (BBC, Amstrad, and ST) — probably more so than Xenon.
