That'll be Rygar then. I'm glad that's over because this was one's familiarity was bugging me. Not that I was going to get it without that big clue.

Re: any suggestion for a good portable device that can play zx spectrum games?
Probably best not to try a 3DS as then you have to check closely which version of firmware it has compared to what version of R4 card you're using, as it's smarter at blocking attempts to hack it.

Re: First tape/games you got with your ZX Spectrum
I got that Dixon's collection with my next Speccy. It was a +2A. It came with that and a bunch of games as part of a '100 games' collection that didn't have 100 games and the only good one was Angleball.

Re: First tape/games you got with your ZX Spectrum
I very nearly got a C16 too, because I knew we had very little money and it was the cheapest option. Even when I started to unwrap it on Christmas Day I thought it was a C16. A Speccy was beyond my wildest dreams (and my mum's bank balance - she got it on HP and it took ages to pay off) Kerry Katon...

I voted for Ikari Warriors. I played that demo through a bunch of times but oddly didn't really enjoy the full game.
