Does anyone here object to playing this game in the Lleague?

A few of us have brought this up before about 2 stick games not being allowed in the Lleague. I used to play it quite a bit on keyboard/joypad before I got an X-arcade and to be honest my scores haven't improved significantly.
Has this ever been put to a vote?
Wev'e got to remember this lleague is supposed to be a bit of fun. In the grand scheme of things would it matter?
Or am I completely wrong?

I am considering altering my selection from: 3D-DeathChase - ZX Spectrum to ... 3D Ant Attack - ZX Spectrum, especially after the latest issue of WotR showed off its exceptional graphics.

But I am unsure of its suitability ... does anyone know where I can get a loadable version?

I'll nominate Rockman on the Vic. It's a kind of Bolderdash clone that is fun.

I have the image if you can't find it.

Hmmmm ... I just had a little go of 3D Ant Attack so I shall stick with my current (and perpetually unsuccessful) selection of:

3D DeathChase - ZX Spectrum

Torn between two shooters here....

OK, I haven't played this for ages, so if it comes up it will give me a great excuse to get back into it.

That game where you have to kick a football through a basketball hoop at the end of the first level, of course.

Good point, I think if several people are desperate to play it in the Lleague, we ought to put it to the vote.

I said earlier that 2 sticks seems natural enough to me on keyboard; what I do have a problem with is the driving games.. I've yet to find a satisfactory way to play any game that had a wheel.

Any tips?

I dunno, but when we played Outrun I managed to complete it with my home made arcade controller, and I never managed that on the arcade machine!
