The Alphabet Of Awesome Gaming
Seeing as I’m within an ace of leaving – possibly to be replaced by a superstar talent, unless he can’t find the time – I thought it was time to bestow the fruits of some wisdom. The Top Fifty Games Of All Time will hopefully be decided this weekend, if everyone can make it, but in the meantime, here’s twenty-six games that must be play-ed, from A to Z-ed.

Why not pick out your favourite letter and tell me all about it? (My favourite is Q.)















I’m still voting for Elite. Not only because of the awsomeness of the game but also they had to re-write the BBC to make it work. They worked within constraints that the Power Games of today cannot grasp – “5 bites, what shall we do with 5 bites?” “Fuel scoops!” – but perhapse because in a universe of infinate planets the will always be one called poo.
