Thanks to Wayne Wormsley for highlighting this one! Super Fighter was a PC based fighting game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Fighter) which became pretty popular, and so much so that a Demo group were looking to convert it to the C64. In an issue … Continue reading →
Another game we’d better start looking for, and one which might be slightly harder for me being in the UK. Super C (Or Super Contra/Super Commandos) is a US only release it seems and one which had it been released … Continue reading →

Rather strange named game, short for Super Powered Urban Device, our next entry is a rather strange SEU where you control a helicopter seemingly in space. It’s very similiar in some ways to the bizzare Airwolf 2 game (Which was … Continue reading →
