I had this way back in the 80's on Spectrum 48k & it featured Page 3 Girl Maria Whittaker on the cover of the tape box Let's hope it brings back the memories of back then
Been waiting for this one! I'll be getting this for sure! Hope they don't change/water-down the content.
will there be customized characters? or everyone will look the same in multiplayer? or is there other characters we can choose? i am getting this either way, will this be universal?
