Put tape in, 15 mins later turn it round, 15 mins later you can actually play!

Crikey, that brings back some memories. I would only ever drive the Paul Ricard circuit because it had a long straight. I found navigating corners extremely difficult.

This game broke a few keyboards and as a 13 year old I used to waggle my joystick for hours trying to reach the fastest times and highest scores.

My absolute favourite game was Elite. I spent so many hours playing that that I just couldn't get killed. It's been updated since for PC, and now looks a lot flashier.

Also used to play that - probably my first experience of F1 actually (think I was about 6 or 7 years old playing it).

This was my first favourite game. Used to scare the crap out of my as a kid.
