Ah, those were the days. When I was a lad, when the latest 'cutting
edge' game cost 5.99 with hefty manual (well, cassette inlay).

When it came out it felt so real, with so many options. I played it
recently and quickly had to have 10 laps on F1GP to stop crying.

Heh, heh, the first good driving game I played.  I still laugh when I
think that they said they left out opposition cars to make it a
simulation instead of an arcade game.  I guess that's why they called
it Chequered Flag - you always won.
