Just going through a few issues of duplicate's, ready to throw out ( see Buy & Sell )
Wizball - great game and review. Should'nt this be a GM? Seem's a very high scoring Sizzler at 96%
Although I can' remember the cut off for GM's - surley some have obtained a GM at this percentage?

You are right - some games got Gold Medals at 96%.

Wizball was and is a great game. Certainly should have been a Gold medal and got a higher overall rating to boot. I replayed it again for a good few hours last year and it's a rare occasion when any game new or old holds my attention for that long these days.
And it seems others agree with me
since it now has a ZzapBack rating of 97%

Only 3 years later and everyone forgot about the article in the DEF tribute to Zzap eh? Tshh.
Final words of Penn about the matter for example.
Oh wait, here it is.
