MANIC MINER
Friday 19 April 2002 Released back in 1993, Manic Miner was the original platform game. You had to negotiate various maps, dodging killer toilets, psychotic penguins and collapsing floors while collecting various buttons to activate the exit. But until now, the only way you may play was either jump staring your aging Sinclair Spectrum or using an emulator for the PC. And let's be honest, 20-year-old graphics don't age to well. However, the new incarnation for the GBA has had a serious cosmetic overhaul – goodbye blocky graphics, 16 colours and sound effects on a par with a drowning mobile phone. Hello revamped graphics, all new sounds and an extra 10 levels.
