No more crappy flash animations please. I've died several times already watching crappy flash animations already. Disclaimers should be required.

I'm the mega drive generation, so that was pretty much lost on me.

It is however , sadly all true.

I bought my Speccy on the proviso that "it'll help with my homework"

Bloody thing never even so much as turned a byte on homework.

It did however teach me how to play games, 1000's of them...

We had the CPC464, to help with homework, and for grandad to do the accounts, write letters (mini-office II), and calculate things for the horses (on Turf Form).

However, classics such as Elite, the Hobbit, and Hitchhiker's Guide, as well as dizzy and other codies games soon put paid to that illusion. Never did get StreetFighter II though...
