i Remember i always used to play this for the ps1 it was a top down third-personish boat game were the boats had a cartoony look about them and you manuvered your boat around the waters and could should cannonballs. Post if you remember if not look it up on youtube and if you like it you can get it pretty cheap on ebay!

I think it would be a good idea to remake this game in Hd and put it on the psn store or xbox arcade, i would buy it.

I played the demo to exaustion, never had the full version. Pretty hard game it was, I remember.

This game was pretty hard, but that was the standard those days. I love this game. I was going to do a playthrough of all 20 levels for my VGgameplay project on Youtube, but we kept running out of lives and eventually had to give in lol. Great game though. I strongly recommend it. I think it was released under a different title in the US though.

Shipwreckers was the US title.

Ah, the good old days with Psygnosis... sigh :(

Psygnosis ruled! They got me into F1 with the brilliant F1 97! Destruction Derby was another PS1 classic.

Being a sucker for Sci-Fi, I was a big fan of Colony Wars and G-Police. Those were difficult as well, though now that I think about it, all Psygnosis games I can think of were hard as heck.

G-Police was brilliant. I never completed it, mainly because I was a little too young, but it was really fun. I might have to hunt down another copy of it sometime. I do remember Colony Wars, but it looked far too complex for me lol.

G-Police was incredibly innovative and fun, but it was also brutally hard. Sadly, the PAL version was released on flawed CDs, so that no cutscene on the second disc would play (bah! humbug).

I still cherish my copy of Colony Wars. One of the few PS1 games I still keep around. It wasn't that complicated, but the difficulty level was titanic (100%'d it anyway :D)

I only know vaguely how the game looks like on PC from the magazine I read back in the day.
