Gods
Speedball 2

These two games rate amongst my fave ever games.

I would love Gods to appear on XBLA. The theme tune was fantastic. "Into, the wonderful"

Weren't both of these published by The Bitmap Brothers?

Their games yes, but both were published by renegade, which was their company anyway, have a gander at these clips for proof

Re: Classic developers in review : Renegade software

Do you remember their "voice" version of Magic Pockets?

It was used on some Saturday kids show. I reckon the person on the phone said left or right and some goon with a joystick moved it
