Has to be Where Time Stood Still because, as much as I hate to say it, the Commodore 64 version of Way of the Exploding Fist was better.
There wasn't another 8-bit version of WTTS, making it unique to the Spectrum, so that gets my vote.

Re: The games that never got released
There's lots of things written about Ultimate, one good source is The Story of US Gold by Chris Wilkins where it does mention that Mire Mare was originally going to be released on the Kixx label (which does tie into Kixx being launched in 1988 and Ultimate essentially being finished by that point). ...

Re: The best classic Speccy game beginning with T: vote
Some fantastic games in that list, but I opted for Trashman in the end. Mainly because there's been nothing really like it since, the only way I know of experiencing what it is like to be a Waste Collection Technician with household members making references to 1980s computers. Montague Street was a...

Re: ZX Spectrum Next Discussion
I think Bizzley makes some great points. I backed the cased Next kickstarter when it launched and the progress has been frustratingly disappointing, especially over the past few months. I understand the risks that come with crowd funded campaigns, but the Next project has really hit home just how li...
