philipj #1526 Posted November 19 (edited) I pumped quite a few quarters in "Alien Syndrome" arcade version back in the late 80s... Great memories with that one. Edited November 19 by philipj 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve-vx #1527 Posted November 19 Great, finally a Tennis game - but why not Great Courts, which is possibly the best and most playable game of Tennis on the ST, according to many incl. myself?! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree. Great Courts 2 is even better and very close to "Jimmy Connors Pro Tennis" on the SNES, which was considered one of the best console tennis games of the 16 bit era alongside Final Match Tennis. I am surprised the ST got that kind of quality sport games. Definetely worth a port. Edited November 19 by agradeneu minor correction 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That one has nice graphics too but I think gameplay looks a bit too slow and the low point of view is not my favourite. Also the speed of the shots/power of strokes look always the same, I miss the dynamics. Edited November 19 by agradeneu adding 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steve-vx #1541 Posted December 5 Would a port of one of the rare good strategy games on the ST be worth considering? I am thinking of Utopia or Populous maybe (I do know about and own Defender ot Crown of course). There is not even a decent port of chess available on the Jag or is it?
