Hi
It might be on here somewhere already, but i just found Thrust Xtreme and its really good.... a little bit "sticky" with the controls, but a real good update of the game. Thrust Plus is also pretty good.
I remember being engrossed when Thrust appeared on the C64 (Mastertronic???).
Would be a Sizzler in my book.............

The C64 version was merely a warm-up... the Vectrex version is a challenge!

No, a real cartridge to buy...
Mark's moved his operation over to John's site now, so you order stuff through him in the meantime...

I`ve ordered it from there and it is a reasonable $17.50 including postage to uk so under a tenner!
