Other predictions for the season: Alonso will be heard on the radio three times this year asking "where is 'Amilton?" Schmui will try his bully boy tactics again on Rubens leading to more dangerous driving discussions. Webber will throw a strop about being Red Bull No 2 at some point (this is after ...

but I would be much happier seeing Nico Hulkenberg be given a chance. He's a genuinely good driver and got through the ranks in F3, A1GP, GP2 etc. on merit. He beat Petrov in GP2 in 2009 too so would give him something to think about. Kubica could come back with a cast on and a opaque visor and sti...

Firstly I hope Robert has a full recovery and can return to F1 as good as he is now (one of the top 4 guys IMHO) I am a massive F1 nut and am finally going to go and see one live this year. I have only missed watching 3 GP's on TV since 1988 and love other track based motorsport too. Hence I shall d...

I can't Believe no one has mentioned the C64 melbourne house version of Double Dragon. just truly awful.

Neo Geo Pocket for me: Metal Slug on the move!

Shadow Dancer for me too (Megadrive version) I loved the idea of setting your wolf on the bad guys. Fighting Ninjas whilst ascending the Statue of Liberty is an iconic videogame moment in my memory.

Megadrive for Strider
PS1 for Tekken 3
PS2 for Grand Theft Auto 3

I would have to say Tekken Tag Tournament on PS2. It was refreshing to find a 1 on 1 fighter that you could play with a friend without it ending in a real fight! It was also enjoyable as my Tag partner and I had very different styles and so the AI found it hard to adjust, In fact until a friend invi...

Megalomania. Used to love this and the cheesy dance track inspired by the game!

I had all of series 1 in the volcano presentation thingies. I even had the series one top trumps too. Didn't collect after that though. had a few of the luminous series 1 released a little later but thats it. I still have a fair few muscle men too.

I always keep my CD's as I have a good stereo system I can tell the quality difference once ripped. If I want to sit and properly listen to music, CD wins as for background music, listeming through headphones the MP3's are more convenient.

Resident Evil 2: When you fall through the floor in the library (I think) this was the first time a video game made me jump!

Also Ex-Mutants on the Megadrive. Pretty good game actually.

It is a toss up between Ivan Iron Man Stewarts Super Off Road on the C64 and Micromachines 96 on the megadrive. Was really hooked on IIMSSOR for months and I loved the track designer for micromachines 96. I recently tried to play the levels I designed over 10 years ago and failed miserably.

Saw Terminator Salvation last night. Awesome film good story and great effects this is what a summer blockbuster should be. Also several nods to the other films.
