Ben Daglish was a genius, incredible how he squeezed those sounds from the SID chip. |

It was actually a manufacturing defect and bugs which composers learned how to exploit that led to some of the SID chip's most memorable early triumphs. Commodore 'fixed' this later on, which is why the later revisions of the C64 don't sound as good. |

I don't think I've ever played the Last Ninja you know. The C64 kind of passed me by back in the day. I think I'll rectify that today. |

I had The Last Ninja 2 on the speccy, including the free ninja mask and plastic shuriken. Although I spent more time playing with the shuriken than the game. |

I don't remember a last samurai although, it does sound like it should be a game. Anyway, the first samurai was ace! |
