Press Play on Tape at The Rock - Bubble Bobble

[SD78]

Spectrum was a total heap of crap and basically the C64 for people who couldn't afford C64s.

[GavManB]

You've got to be kidding me, the Commodore 64 was the best computer around at the time. Far superior to the Spectrum in every way, same as the Amiga was way better than the Atari ST except for making music!

[tfal23]

this is so unbelievably gay... it's embarrassing that these guys aren't embarrassed about being onstage performing this embarrassing shît!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Simpson654]

I'm glad you embarrassed yourself by writing that embarassing comment.

[diegolas666]

man, this is soooo awesome, i there any vid or mp3 with more Quality??

[BudhistPanda]

Jeres musik giver sved på panden, og får blodet til at bruse. FUCK, hvor var hele familien bare vilde med det spil, og hvor er jeres musik bare for fed. I utallige timer har man lyttet til de små elektroniske melodier, smadret bunker af joysticks, bandet og svovlet. Tak for musikken live, og et fedt nostalgitrip, he he :)

[Therince]

ah, it brings back memories, nice to see im not the only 8bit nerd ;)

[fetonegro]

amazing.I always loved the music of bubble bubble! This a great tribute to the game.

[Sethdk]

I was at one of the band's first live performances in 1999 or something, and I can only tell you that it was beyond great. It was wonderful, simply beyond imagination: They played 'Actec Challenge', which made geeks do work-out. 'Ghosts'n Goblins made me (an othewise nerdy woman) remember the hardships of the game... 'Press Play On Tape made me remember the C64. If you don't know the importance of that, don't even bother. You're propably lovely but You don't know the Geek....

[CoolPaulUK]

The specky ruled over your crappy C64. How we use to laugh at you guys. HA HA HA! ;o)

[ironmodem]

The spectrum didn't even pwn itself

[SD78]

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

The Spectrum was a heap of crap that poor people played instead of the c64. Look at the graphics...LOL!

The sound was a collection of burps and farts that would be incapable of pruducing anything like the classic c64 themes.

[CoolPaulUK]

Spectrum was always more popular and better than c64. The games had "play-ability". Which the c64 could never achieve. And as for burps and farts, they are the sounds you make everytime you speak, so whats your problem.

[SD78]

It was popular among poor people in British tenement blocks who couldn't afford a C64 and had to settle for a sub-standard alternative.

The Spectrum ceased to exist as an operating system in most developed nations by 1988.

[CoolPaulUK]

Your wrong. I was never poor. The spectrum was the peoples computer. The c64 was for the poor people. It was unstable. It crashed. I had loads of friends that swithed from the c64 to the specky. Just out of interest. What else did you own over the years. I had, Super Nintendo, N64, PS1, PS2, PS3. I bet your one of those sad xbox people. lol

[SD78]

LOL...you are making stuff up now and its sad.

The C64 cost much more that the inferior Spectrum, hence the vastly improved graphics, sound and general performance. I never experienced any of the problems you describe, which indicates you are grasping at straws in an attempt to discredit a system which you resented the rich kids at school having while you had to endure monochrome graphics and shitty sound.

I graduated from the C64 to the Amiga, then on to the PS1/PS2 and back to PC.

[Kiddolinfen]

It was called the spectrum because the graphics were out of the normal range of human eyesight... so everything looked shit...

[astralbee]

Woah. At my school all the rich kids had ZX Spectrums and went on to make lots of money as programmers. All the C64 owners were scrubbers who stole their parents stuff and pawned it to buy the machine, then spilled off-brand cola over it within a week.

They were both great in their own way. The C64 was built by hippies and so it had a cool sound chip and great colours... but the graphics were so blocky and pixelated, which doesnt matter when you are off your mash. The speccy was pixel perfect!

[lmcgregoruk]

@astralbee And of course the Spectrum had that awesome colour clash that the C64 could only dream of. :-)

[astralbee]

@lmcgregoruk I love that comments I made years ago still generate responses. What ARE you talking about? I saw someone crash a Peugot 306 the other day - does that mean they all crash as a design feature? The Spectrum didn't have colour clash - some poorly programmed games did, that's all. In the later years of the ZX it was such a well-explored system that programmers were able to work with the limitations of the machine and produce games which were amazingly colourful without any clashes.

[saivert]

You are doing it wrong mates!

[KrazyKarasz]

Holy crap, Bub is holding the spotlight.

[BudhistPanda]

I er det suverænt fedeste band, jeg nogen sinde har fundet på nettet. Jeg så jer i TV for et års tid siden, og i er simpelthen for vilde. Commodore 64 styrer, og det gør i også !!!

[rootneg2]

hell yeah!

[s1harmonie]

Go Maniac Mansion too !

[bosone666]
