On the Acorn Archimedes. The Archimedes didn't really *suck* per se but wasn't a massive success. I loved this version and many people consider it to be the best.

Agreed. The Archimedes version added some nice touches - I remember frequently flying past a pirate getting shot to bits by some police vipers while I was on the way somewhere. I still prefer Frontier though, although I don't recall that it was released on any really awful systems - unless you count MS-DOS ;-)

WTF?

Umm.. it's "Grounded". Not "Earthed" ya dweebs. What, did you think you were being clever or something? "Earthed" isn't even technically correct, like Sun vs Sol. It's just plain wrong, and doesn't even SOUND smart. Geez.


Tally ho!

Now look here old chap, the correct word is 'earthed' and not 'grounded.' Did you think you were trying to sound intelligent or something my dear man? 'Grounded' isn't even technically correct, it's how you describe a teenager that has been an especially naughty fellow and is not allowed to leave the house as a punishment.

Enough of the stereotyping. They're both correct.

Dumbass :-P
