The five which spring to mind are;
Jetpac
Spy vs Spy
Quazatron
Underwurlde
Cobra
I'm certain that I've forgotten a load though.

Re: Your Favourite Five Spectrum Games
I think I should play more Speccy games. I tend to just play ones I've done a thousand times before.
Think I'll give The Great Escape a go - never played it! Always meant to.

Re: Your Favourite Five Spectrum Games
Ohh a hard one since the speccy was my first proper computer!
1. Chaos. It was sooo great a multiplayer game. My mate made a version with the elite loader we used to play when we were "at the library" *(his house) at school. I was more into putting stuff on disk since I had a +3.
2. Starglider 128k. Just excellent.
3. Dizzy. Probably the first most but 1,2,3 were equaly good.
4. Rebelstar 2.
5. Stonkers.
I am probably missing much of the later games and probably some classics but these stand out in my mind right now!
