joseegreg: It's Mass Effect for the ps3 :)
Ghorpm: Pretty close ;)
Iain: I had to hit up Gamebase 64 to find this one, heard of it but never played or owned it, believe it was a straight to budget title back in the day.
It is not listed on Lemon 64 which is pretty strange must admit, there are a few missing games from the database on there and the search is very specific at times.
Either way it is Dead Zone and was released by The Power House (Budget Label) in 1987

Ghorpm: That's really strange it's missing from Lemon 64... It's not a masterpiece but it was quite enjoyable and had awesome music
Check it out yourself.
As for your picture, I've recognized it immediately. I'm a Caesar of C64 ;P
That music is pretty cool for a budget title.
The game I posted I prefer on Amiga, kind of reminds me of the main character on Metal Slug the Miggy version!
I am usually pretty clued up on most things C64 with still having mine and using it regularly, I have in excess of 400 original games on tape ranging from the big card box releases, twin tape jewel cases, small card box releases, clam shell cases which are small tape size or larger ones on games like Druid 2 and I do have quite a few of the budget releases from companies like Codemasters, Mastertronic, Firebird / Silverbird etc. Most of my C64 stuff was bought back in the 80's, started collecting for it again last year when I got it back from my mother, love the machine.
If you feel like checking out what I have all my pics are uploaded over at Colexions, a site dedicated to classic / retro gaming, toy, comic and everything else collectors from all over the world.
