There was quite the mystique around Ultimate in those early days. So much so in fact that when I was 10 years old there was a conspiracy theory going around that the colours of their logo were a secret nod to an amazing game they would only release if the company ever got into trouble. Yes, this collection of schoolboys believed that Ultimate had created something so incredible and mind blowing that it could only be regretfully unleashed under the most dire of circumstances.

We also sat in from of a Spectrum for 16 hours waiting for the mythical midnight boat ride in Jet Set Willy. We may have been rather gullible.
