how could people not know this game... when I was a kid almost every bar and takeaway in the area I lived had a Bombjack machine in it :D one of the games I played before I came to terms with the fact that I was going to grow up a gamer. thank you for stirring up some nice memories :) |
Lol, no problem, I absolutely loved this game. To this day, it's the only video game my mum has ever played (and enjoyed) 
Anyway, No. 41:
41. Bomb Jack (Amstrad CPC 464, also in Arcade, also on Commodore 64/16, Atari ST, Amiga, Game Boy and now on Wii Virtual Console)
This is the only video game my mother has ever played. Younger posters are probably thinking 'WTF?' but this game is pure platforming brilliance. Someone has planted 24 bombs in 5 high profile locations and it's up to Bomb Jack (with his impressive jumping and gliding ability) to collect and defuse them. Collect the bombs in the right order (denoted by the order the bombs sparkle) and get a massive bonus. But watch out for those fast moving robots! Now on Wii's Virtual Console if anyone wants to give it a go.
