Holy crap, SEYMOUR?? I remember a kid telling me about that game in the playgroud when I was about 7. He told me a read a comic about Seymour beating the shit out of Dizzy and there being 'all yolk dribbling out of his head'. I didn't believe it ever existed! I thought it was one of those legends like 'Street Fighter Black Belt Edition', which I did believe in because my mate's brother said he saw it in Wales.

James, there were quite a few of the Dizzy games (the egg guy), but they were all unlicensed, so there weren't a lot. I guess they were huge in Australia.

Six, that one at the bottom with the pyros is great. I counter with this:

So the Seymour games were unlicensed knock-offs of the Dizzy games? I don't quite understand.

This review of Dizzy 1 on the ZX spectrum is about my favorite game review ever. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=zIWjKDuL3Os

I never liked Dizzy because I'm not English.

The Dizzy games are pretty fucking bad! Just watch that video and see how frustrated the dude gets trying to get the crowbar. They never improved the gameplay in any of the 10 or so sequels, they just moved the items around and changed the tileset.

Yes, I realised this myself when I tried to put them together. That was as well as I could manage without putting EFFORT in.

I think the size discrepancy is fitting, considering how completely awkward all the animation is.

I agree with swimmy, yet think that the difference in image quality has more to do with them not looking right together.
