Did also enjoy a bit of the Amiga console as well. It had sensible soccer on it and that blew me away.

Sensi Soccer and Micropose Golf where the two Amiga games that must have swallowed up the most of my times for 3-4 years. You could play people for money at them, sensi soccer had incred swerving and tatics, i wish they had a modern version of it now.

I can't believe I was 3 years old when the amiga sensible soccer came out. Must have been 4/5 years old playing that game, and I remember being good at it, rather than sort of not knowing what I was doing.

Definitely argue that this game and others i was brought up on created transferable skills, to what I do now with the pokers.

Would imagine too those that are really good at Call of Duty would be good candidates to transfer over to online poker, in terms of core skills of reactions and quickness of decision making. Obv so much more, but I think there is something in that.

scramble? You had a fire button and bomb. Trick was to time it so you dropped 2 bombs as you go over the mountain peak to take ot the first 2 rockets and then dive down to ground level and rapid fire the other rockets.

For space invaders let them come down clearing the houses and as they are just above you sweep from one side of the screen to the other timing your shots to perfection so you clear the full row

Asteroids just leave the hyperspace button well alone. Once you hit that sucker you are proper fecked Smiley
