Fast Food should be on the budget list. I loved that game.

One of my favourite internet comedy characters.

More disturbingly mental than funny, IMO.

Err, yes, back to budget games. I have just watched some Youtube footage of Fast Food, and I had no idea that the 8-bit and 16-bit versions were so different. As you can imagine, the 8-bit versions are far more simplistic. Both have the annoying 'twist' of making the player complete the game a second time round but with an inverted display, however.

Kwik Snax is far better although we've done that before.*



* Apart from the crazily odd C64 version which is a totally different game and rubbish.

Oh, I remember. The awful emulator kept on crashing out. Have real CPC's now.

Loading Feud again for another spanking from the CPU player.

Haven't touched the Xbox since this CPC got here. GTA V Online doesn't get a look in with Feud around.

Just played Fast Food Dizzy. It's boring, slow and dull. Not even a quarter of the game Kwik Snax is.

I absolutely *loved* Feud on my Spectrum! Couldn't believe it was a straight-to-1-99 game, it was that good!

It remains a great game. Totally overlooked due to its price point. Once you get into it, it's hard not to keep on going back as you make a little bit more progress each time.
