In my day we played like men!

Also me:

I could complete Robocop and Midnight Resistance though.

Well, there's your problem. You've plugged a Romantic Robot into the place where your Kempston joystick should be. Never going to win at Daley Thompson's without perfecting your waggle. Also, the Speccy will probably crash from hammering the keyboard if you try.

Midnight Resistance is one of those weird games where the first level is the hardest; it's not too bad to finish it if you do the first bit. Fair play on Robocop, though - that's a hard game.

And your little brother got peanut butter on the manual so your mom threw it away.

Super Mario Bros in the NES for me, the excitement if you reach a later level for the first time, only to die and have to try it al over again.
