I think this will be easy. Guess the game by the phrase in its advert.

1.- "The fastest sci-fi arcade game yet"
2.- "Play it like there's no tomorrow"
3.- "For added realism play this standing in the bath"
4.- "The full moon approaches"
5.- "The ultimate in battle action"
6.- "A mission you can never complete"
7.- "Got a Spectrum? Don't just play it... fly it!"
8.- "Now the summer will surely last forever"
9.- "Only the bravest fly"
10.- "Can you bear the suspense?"

4 is annoying me. It's not Knight Lore or Werewolves of London, I can't think of any other zx lycanthropes.

Eh? Where does it say that? I can only find 'coming soooon'.

Sir! sir! Rorthron cheated. Can I have the points please?

I regret laughing at Matgubbins's typo now.

Where does it say "The full moon approaches" though? I can't find it in the advert and I've looked at alternatives.

Look. I'm really fine with this. It's just a bit of fun.

It's nothing to get worked up over.

It's completely fine.

Fine.

Karma down.... :) Anyway, Werewolves was the first answer in my head too, scampered to the advert - not there, but it is when you click on a certain version of it. Yup, 'coming soon...'., 'moon....' , 'held back because it's a bit crap...', 'maybe release it on budget next year', 'Bugger! We've gone bust!'

The thing is when I was awarded the 'yes' and handed the cash prize, I went out and got a Wimpy burger...

There is a Crash advert with that slogan, but it's not the one listed in the archive.
