And if you like it, try out the 8 bits versions of them (Spectrum/MSX and Commodore 64) . IMO, they lack in the graphical/sound department, but are better in the gameplay department compared to the Amiga/Atari ST versions.

Am I the only one to think that the 16 bits versions of Xenon aren't half as good as the 8 bits ones ?

He he oki then I have to try 8 bit version - Zx speccy is still my second live. Meantime I tryed Xenon II Amiga version - music from Bomb the Bass and David Whittaker sorry should be DAVID WHITTAKER is great ! I remember that Whittaker and Ben Daglish made a lot superb music tracks for the games on Zx Speccy with AY sound stereo interface... ehhh still have in my memory this nice 8 bit machine. God - thanks for emulators...

So you HAVE to try the Spectrum version. Is IMO, the best version of them all, and it's one of the best Speccy games I have ever played.

Do you have any link for downloading Xenon II speccy version ???
I would like to check this on my PC.

I think I have it at home.

But you can find it in the World of Spectrum site.
