It's on now and it's great - a real blast from the past(Y) at just under 50mb and a fair bit online options seems a good little package

I actually won a BMX bike waaay back in the day (1985 and I was 13) in a comp by an amusement arcade (Treasure Island) in Glasgow. You had to get the best overall score on all 3 levels. They got in 2 extra machine for the comp but were removed once the comp was over.

Downloaded the full version and got around 5 achievements on one go!

Has some great online options etc. more than some full price games offer, like a private game.

Wow this game is terrible, I used to love it in the arcades as well, I'm sure the graphics were more crisp than this.:sick:

[TracerTong]

Come to think of it, they DO look a bit ragged. Personally, still very playable. This game holds a special place in my gaming history

I thought it did for me and had every intention of unlocking the full game but I was wrong.:'(
