Especially good to see an honourable mention of one of my all time favourites Manic Miner. Check out the sequel Jet Set Willy as well. Shame you did have time to mention Pitfall (another fav).
In terms of the next few Matt chats maybe an overview of systems is the way to go. I really liked the PLATO one and I hadn't even heard of it! Not sure it made it to these shores?
Having said that as an Ultima fanatic I would loved to see Ultima VII. In fact I would watch individual videos on each Ultima game probably one after the other! But maybe that would be a bit niche!
The frog game stirred vague memories for me as well and it reminded my of a similar game (in terms of graphics transposed on to a backdrop) where you harpooned a shark (anyone know what this was called?) Plus the old classic Boot Hill.
Hi
