Try this!

Great! Case closed!

If we're discounting 'the' from titles then I'd like to suggest "The Eidolon", which I spent many a happy hour playing back in the day.

I've never played it and it seems interesting.

And it's got a high WoS score. I think I should give it a try.

As it stands, the list will be...

• Earth Shaker by Michael Batty/Your Sinclair
• Edd The Duck by Impulze
• Eddie Kidd Jump Challenge by Martech
• Egg Head by Claire Tucker/Crash
• Egghead To The Rescue by Grafix Wizards/Crash
• Eidolon, The by Activision
• Eliminator by Hewson

Apologies for throwing a proverbial spanner in the works, but, are we talking 'games' only or can we add Adventure Games? If so then I'd probably say Emerald Isle as I spent hours playing it 'back in the day'

Yeah, a text adventure is still a game. May not be mainstream, may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it is still a game. Stuff like spreadsheet programs; graphics packages; back-up software, etc, they're applications and utilities which won't count.

[Juan F. Ramirez]

I think Make-a-Chip doesn't count either

[mention]PeteProdge[/mention] Can you add Evening Star?

I'd like to put forward Elevator Action for consideration for this poll.

It 's a fun arcade conversion that has a really good tune on it and has you offing enemy agents and ducking into red doors to retrieve secret plans. Ride the elevators to change floors, and later escalators. Shoot out lights, kick you enemy, crush you enemies when they try to ride on top of the elevator just don't get stuck on top yourself. The location of the red doors are random ly generated so a new challenge each play.

Did I say David Whittaker made a really catchy tune for this one, definitely a game that deserves a look in and one that will challenge you to have just one more go...

Thanks

Loved this in the arcade, it's got that 'one more go' quality.
