please help me before i go mad. what is the game at 0.36?i have needed to know the majority of my life, please can someone tell me? you will make a forgotten spectrum geek (and proud) a very happy woman x
OMG!! That classroom game was actually an arcade game. I saw it only once at a movie theatre in mid 1980's. I couldn't figure it out so that game ended quickly and found it a rip off. WHAT is this classroom game??
I always liked the loading screen pictures. Great to see the old games again - it was REAL programming to squeeze most them ontointo a Speccy and some of the gameplay puts modern games to shame. Probably the best graphics I ever saw in a Spectrum game was Lightforce - crisp lear and smooth with no attribute clashes.
@exposed97 Not built in, reeeaaaally. I mean, you could save just text in the basic command line, but there were NO additional functions at all. There were 3rd party word processors available, though, such as Tasword.
Even though I never really owned it or played it before, but from the looks of some of the game videos here I do like the few colours they have and the simple transparency effect they use with them.
Way better than the Commodore 64 and Atari that looked like struggling full-colour poseurs until the NES finally came along.
just brilliant. how was this tune made? sounds like a spectrum and atari 8 bit in co operation! pure class tune, i own many speccys and ataris, love em to bits. had a c64 which i lent to someone and his mother put it to a charity shop! ace video - thanx!
0:05 to 0:23 -> anyone knows the name of the game which is on the left side of the second line, with the image of a classroom??? i had that game but i forgot his name :(
brilliance my first computer Spectrum zx plus 2 128k. the 48k was bad nothing loaded. fav games. Operation wolf, renegade, Barbarian, the way of the exploding fist, double dragon and other stuff
sweeeet, i actually knew someone who completed Elite and sent off for the badge,dont know if anyone else remembers that? Still have my Spectrum plus.Thanks for posting , great memories.
it might have been weak, but it was also cheap and the games actually looked better than the ones for c-64 in some cases (thanks to beeing so colorful)
That is so cool, I remember getting "Elite", and thinking that was the cutting edge of gaming technology. Tho I did piss about "cobra" most of the time, laser sights ......Yes !!
ah those were the days, when the sky was blue and the north pole still had ice. great to see that computer games keep getting better and better and better... perhaps one day soon we might be able to network our brains via skynet in order to maximise productivity in the fields of game development and international relations eh? we should send emails to mr. obama asking him to give usa better games and feed the emaciated children and end genocide aswell good willing.
Jesus h Christ, 1.01 could that be jetpack or something? That was my favourite, serious case of age regression after seeing that, I don't want to come back to fucking adulthood.

Completamente de acuerdo cesar, las nuevas generaciones no saben ke muchos de los juegos actuales son siplemente REFRITOS de titulos de la innovadora speccy...Te digo mas..en los ochenta, una spectrum podia hacer MIL cosas mas ke una pc...
What was the name of that game at 1:04 where you had to steer something that suspiciously looks like a penis pushing a pyramid through a lot of obstacles?

I never understood why the Spectrum was so popular? The colour clash on the speccy was awfull!! It really spoilt what could of been a good computer! The C64 was by far MASSIVELY better!! But, best of all was the AMSTRAD CPC 464!
Spectrum was a great 8bit computer, is probably the best (in 80's), and has a powerfull extensions. was the leader of the computers, like yogibear2k6 or not like, the best.
i hate it when people like you compare things that where built 10 years appart. ow my dual core pc is well better than a sinclair spectrum <--- it obviously will be COMMODORE SUCK!! (so do amstrad) lol
Sinclar Specturm was released in 1982, so was the C64!! Yes, the C64 is in fact thecnical superior in almost every way (Not the CPU though). But that has nothing to do with the actual joy, pleasure and delight that the computer gave its user. I have no problem at all to see why people loves the spectrum, even though i never had one. I have seen at least one game that was thecknical superior on the spectrum compared to C64, "Space harrier".
Thanks for taking the time to do this - mixing the music, too. I spent far too much time playing these games and watching your vid brought them all back - was that the Dukes of Hazard at 02:13??
It's amazing what the spectrum programmers were able to get out of that little machine. I'm sure if you showed the later spectrum games to the original designers of the machine, they wouldn't believe it was the humble speccy. Just incredible what they did with that old machine!
Ahh a trip down memory lane. I spent many hours of my childhood tapping away on the rubber keyboard and ruining kempston quickshot joysticks. Happy days....
wow, some interesting games here, most of which i dont recognize. also your speccy seems quite "powerful" compared to my old one, for example your games tend to have alot of colours, whereas my spectrum games tend to have 3 colours per game!
These are all actual Spectrum games using the standard 8 x colours. They probably look more colourful due to the small screen size that YouTube displays.
Great video.I remember most of those..Kudos for putting Highway,Bugaboo the Flea & War of the Worlds up there.

Sinclar Specturm was released in 1982, so was the C64!! Yes, the C64 is in fact thecnical superior in almost every way (Not the CPU though). But that has nothing to do with the actual joy, pleasure and delight that the computer gave its user. I have no problem at all to see why people loves the spectrum, even though i never had one. I have seen at least one game that was thecknical superior on the spectrum compared to C64, "Space harrier".

Thanks for taking the time to do this - mixing the music, too. I spent far too much time playing these games and watching your vid brought them all back - was that the Dukes of Hazard at 02:13??

It's amazing what the spectrum programmers were able to get out of that little machine. I'm sure if you showed the later spectrum games to the original designers of the machine, they wouldn't believe it was the humble speccy. Just incredible what they did with that old machine!

Ahh a trip down memory lane. I spent many hours of my childhood tapping away on the rubber keyboard and ruining kempston quickshot joysticks. Happy days....

Hehe i love the Commordore 64 remix used for this ZX Speccy video :)

Technically, it's a remix of a remix of the Spectrum 'Cobra' theme which is why I used it. (And also because this tune RULES!) :)

wow, some interesting games here, most of which i dont recognize. also your speccy seems quite "powerful" compared to my old one, for example your games tend to have alot of colours, whereas my spectrum games tend to have 3 colours per game!

These are all actual Spectrum games using the standard 8 x colours. They probably look more colourful due to the small screen size that YouTube displays.

What the game @ 0.15 secs bottom left of the screen, looks like a classroom? Cheers
