    And at what age are you going to start spelling it correctly, now that you've learned to play it ;)

    Fender Squier :)

    One christmas I got an Amiga 500 when I was expecting a Sega Megadrive... I was very happy with that.

    Although it did come with Captain Planet as the bundled in game... The Megadrive came with Altered Beast... so that wouldn't have been much use either...

    I think you mean literacy forum? Heh. Regardless!

    Mine was, like monkeyfudge, also an Amiga 500 with the Screen Gems pack. I had seen the ads for it on TV and was left gobsmacked by the screenshots from "Shadow of the Beast 2". I remember practically dancing from foot to foot when at my grandparents in my eagerness to get home and start it up. And the game was great (well it seemed so)! I can still remember the music too and the excellent guitar riff when you died. Ten pints - this one's for you Larry! Cheat mode now activated biggrin.gif
