No scratch that it is

Everyone's a Wally from a petrol pump.

Correct!

The BEE PEE petrol pump, to be precise!

Nope

Nope!

Ok, my turn:

The first game that comes to my mind is Bruce Lee

After a couple hours of contemplation, I think this one will be the right challenge for you:

Nice try, @grongy !

That's the Spirit?

Lunar Jetman?
