Jayz, I'd have BOUGHT that game.  If you'd released a version for the C64, naturally.

If you mean Spy Hunter, I think you would have missed out there, value-for-money-wise. It was only a description of driving down a road, with options to speed up, slow down, turn left, turn right and fire your guns, which led to dying in a variety of different ways.

Unless you mean Chainsaw Joe, which would indeed have been brilliant, if I'd had half the clue about programming I thought I had.

Anyway we swapped it with him for a proper game (which we copied and swapped back).

What's that you say?  You were illegally copying software before the internet?  And the games industry still survives a quarter century later?  Inconceivable!

Ah for the days when the guy with a dual-cassette stereo was everybody's best friend.

Someone should sample a tape of Jet Set Willy or Manic Miner and put a beat to it. 

Challenging.

Even more so, dear boy.
Except for the aforementioned jet set willy.  That bastard bleeding colour-code security card.
