Right, at 10am Mon 5th March, we'll be voting for the best classic Speccy game beginning with F. As usual, we have this week-long discussion thread to decide which games are going to be included in the poll.
Here's my shortlist...
Fairlight by The Edge
Fast Food by Code Masters
Fat Worm Blows A Sparky by Durell
Fantasy World Dizzy by Code Masters
Feud by Mastertronic
Finders Keepers by Mastetronic
Firelord by Hewson
Flying Shark by Firebird
Football Manager by Addictive Games
Frankie Goes To Hollywood by Ocean
Freddie Hardest by Dinamic
...and now over to you lot to say "you idiot Peter, you've forgotten about...".

I used to love Fahrenheit 3000!!! Yes, I realise that I must be some sort of moronic sadist, but, even though it was insanely hard I used to spend ages playing it.
- Fantastic Voyage: a very entertaining adventure
- Fernando Martín Basket Master, one of the best basketball games
- Flight Simulation: Maybe it won't win, but I think it deserves to be in the poll
- Frank Bruno's Boxing, one of the best boxing games
- Formula One. Never played it much, but people usually love this management game.
I don't have anything cool to put here, so i'll just be off now to see a priest with yeast stuck between his teeth and his friend called Keith who's a hairpiece thief...

If Juan doesn't vote for Fred I just don't know what's real any more...
Ideally we should leave F until September 2nd, which as we all know is International Fred appreciation day. Maybe we should skip it for now and move on to G :-p

F16 Combat Pilot by Digital Integration
Well damn. I thought I had this down to a tough choice between Fantasy World Dizzy (easily the best Dizzy) and Frank N Stein (quirky but I loved it BITD) and then you go and throw in a genuine classic I lost hours to and had almost forgotten....
A nice simulation game of real Endkampf. But understandably for those same reasons deeply frustrating. (You cannot win, you can only delay the inevitable defeat) For me one of the best examples when you should not model exactly real life to give some more game play options.
Back in the day I wondered how this game ever got off the drawing board in the state that it was in. With no win state what was the point in playing the game in the first place?
