Scott Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I've got around 8 Spectrums, few different versions too. Fantastic machines those were, miles ahead of their time. I played paperboy till I had blisters lol. Oh, and Bruce Lee, IK+, 180 darts etc. Fantastic fun. Might pull one of them down sometime.

stevie_b Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I'm going all misty-eyed with all this nostalgia! As a family we had a BBC Micro. I remember waiting around 5 mins for games to load via tape. "Revs" was a particular favourite of mine, a driving simulator. Basic graphics, but spot-on physics. Impressive bearing in mind the hardware constraints the programmers were working under. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you know what a multiface 3 is you really are old school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 If your interested in the older 8bit / 16bit stuff its well worth getting an original modified X-Box and filling it full of emulators and roms, monty mole on a x-box pad and flat screen TV is cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Can do the same with a modified Wii, modified PSP etc etc etc. I tend to use my PSP as it's handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've looked into getting a BBC emulator for the PS2: I found one but the PS2 needs to be physically modified somehow, something I'm not keen on doing.

The-Plethora Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 So where is : Gravity Power (Came with amiga power) Got me there, this (and amiga power) were amazing! I think they did gravity force 2 first but power had more options? been a while. Random fact, the sound of the ships crashing into each other in that was made by someone hitting a 4 way extention cord against a radiator Just realised the amiga had a very good version of midnight resistance also.
