Quazzia on Memotech MTX512

http://www.retrogamingcollector.com ----------------

Gameplay from Quazzia, a Scarmble clone, playing on the Memotech MTX512. Retro Gaming.

This is not a review, walkthrough, playthrough, or demonstration of my playing ability.
It's more a case of me speaking my thoughts while playing the games, many for the first time, and most for the first time in a very long time... so it's all a little spontaneous and random.
Predictably, as I never practice before recording, I usually play very badly.

Given that I am playing many of these games for the first time, and everything I say is completely off the cuff, you probably shouldn't take what I say overly seriously. The opinions that I express are my feelings at the time, but it's entirely possible that they would be different if I were to take the time to get to grips with the game.

However, given that these videos are intended to show that "first time experience", I believe they have some validity or merit.

*Very* impressed with this one, it really looks awesome! Thanks Steve!

[SteveBenway]

@nukinetix It's certainly a good one. My fave by far :)

Looks wonderful compared to other games you've shown us on this system, although that waterfront game that played like Gridrunner looked nice, too.

@orangeActiondotcom This is my favourite by a long way :)

Amazing looking game for a home computer from 1985! The animation, the sound, great work! Much better than anything contemporary (computer) I love these games but I was always crap at them.

Weird thing I only heard of the Memotech MX512 computer recently (thanks to your videos).

Of course at that time my only regular contact with computers were with a Multitech PC and a friend's 464 CPC

@Trusteft The Memotech computers were largely ignored by the gaming press back in the day, so very few people were aware of them at the time, and they don't seem to have received much attention since them either... which is a shame.

@kingstonlj It's definitely fun. I've only come across one racing game, 3D Turbo. It was interesting, but nothing to get really excited about.

@Andyc18 He definitely did good stuff on the Memotech. I'm taking everyone's word for the quality of the Tycoon games, as I've never played or even looked at them. :)

@Fawltykog LOL :D

[SteveBenway]

@LeightonW87 I totally agree :)
