ZX Spectrum Star Wars 48K Game

i dont understand how they made this game so slow when 3d starstrike which is basically the same is faster with more colours :-s

Not a bad effort all things considering. gotta play the MAME though really ;-)

@hewey999 btw how does one go about getting the star wars for MAME? I tried the download and it said files missing. any ideas would be helpful/appreciated.

The Speccy had a lot of potential for its time with the faster Z80 over the 6502 in the other batch of computers at the time. It just sucks that Sinclair used the ULA for graphics, instead of using custom graphics and sound processors like Atari and Commodore.

[meowmmmmm]

I think the most amazing part is Google Adds picked up the sound fingerprint from the Speccy, so you could buy the original track from the movie.

When I had this for the Zx Spec 48k it had sound during the game.

nice music, sounds like an orchestra of blue-bottles.

Nice music for Spectrum.

I always preferred Starstrike by Realtime to be honest

[CarackUp]

better than the c64 one ,that was a terrible game conversion very slow and jerky with innacurate collision

[crazylevipinball]

THere are actually 2 C64 versions - one a few years older by Parker Bros.

They both suck sadly. Really no substitute for the arcade original on this one, though MAME with a mouse does in a pinch.

This looks like Star Strike, another game series for the ZX Spectrum PC's

[chichuf]

It´s looks the same of 1983 arcade coin machine . Amazing game conversion!  =)
