Tough one. I think for me it would have to be The Hobbit. I'm not sure how well it stood the test of time, but I thought it was very good for the time.

For me, Chequered Flag. Technically amazing for a 48k game made in 1982.

Oh, you're right, but it's almost the same thing... 1983.

From that year's perspective, it's an amazing game, think about it, a first person (sort of) racing game. In 1987 or 88 would have been a mediocre game, but in the early years it was great.
