I was OBSESSED with Mr Do! and was bloody good at it (high score over 1.7 million, most players seemed to get about 80k). Actually, I say WAS obsessed, I still play it a few times every week on a mac emulator!
The only other score I recall was on Scramble I got 316000 when they installed it at the Art college I was at. That was an hours play going through the whole thing 15 times.
What were the other games I liked???? Mr Do's castle, Burgertime, Sidearms, Darius, Centipede, R-type II, Tron, Rampage, Track & field, Mappy ..... I forget now, it was all 40 odd years ago ....
Mr Do!
Scramble
Burgertime
I have really fond memories of PacMan table machines. My aunt and uncle had one in their living room! My auntie used to look after me in the school holidays. I’d sit and play it all day.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to

All simple graphically, but all about the playability.
i spend most of my holidays (time and money) in the arcades in Penzance and St Ives. Getting a BBC with Planetoid and Elite was life changing. I had Philips G7000 before that had some crazy fun games.

One I have vague, but fond memories of, was a Michael Jackson game that I think must have been a Moonwalker (film) tie in. I don't remember anything about it but I do remember really liking it! Anyone?
