I’ve not really had much chance to play yet. It arrived Saturday late afternoon, I was planning on setting aside a few hours this afternoon to get stuck in but something else came up. So so far all I’ve done is set it up and spent about half an hour just looking at what it can do.
Oh yeah definitely. The original Speccy came out a couple of months before my 12th birthday. Unfortunately my 12th birthday present that year was NOT a Spectrum or any other kind of computer – but through a combination of saving paper round money and constant pleading/annoying mum & dad it meant that we got one by about Easter 1983. And so my paper round money for the rest of my teenage years nearly all ended up in the hands of Imagine, Ultimate, DKTronics, Ocean and all the other amazing games companies that appeared out of nowhere.

Ask me again in a week!
This thread will still be here!
Were you a ZX gamer back in the day?
