No.9: Cobra - Ocean, 1986
Jonathan ‘Joffa’ Smiff strikes again. Arguably better than the movie it was loosely based on, Joffa took elements from the Sly Stallone action film and the actor’s persona and incorporated them into a brilliant run ‘n’ gun game. Neat graphics, a superb scrolling routine, wonderful sound and a wicked sense of humour are all part of this square-jawed package. Christmas ‘86 was a very special time in the Mason household. Well, for me anyway.
