Toepoke Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 All these PS16's and the like will never produce a game like International Football on the Commodore 64 (cartridge) - way before its time. Twas amazing. During the teachers' strike one day about 20 of us decanted to a mate's house to play a full blown World Cup. Those impossible to save angled shots were a pain in the erse though...

wanderer Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Was more into Nintendo as a kid, but my cousins were into Mega Drive, so would do swaps every now and again. IIRC Most Mega Drive games were not regionalised, so you could get games from the States, while with Nintendo it was only game boy games you could buy in the States and use here? As a kid when we went to Florida used to get friends and family giving me a list of games they all wanted that were not available in the UK.

Spectrums were for paraffin lamps. away with your squareoid chunky graphics. Spectrum for playability and curved graphics beat you into a Commodorean pulp.

Coldo Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Jungle strike was the best of that series, mind the last mission where you had to stop VW Camper vans from ramming the Whitehouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only good thing to come from a Spectrum was Jet Set Willy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giblet Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Pffft. The only good thing to come from a Spectrum was Jet Set Willy. Takes me back to the 80's Commodore 64 v ZX Spectrum wars. Despite the fact that none of us had any say in what we were getting, we all got them from Granparents/parents at Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddybuc16 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I had a commodore 64, like a few other people on here. Am i the only one that ever owned the game "gazza 2". That was one of the greatest games ever. Used to be able to put the pitch to icy and slide tackles would go on forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one of the greatest games ever. Used to be able to put the pitch to icy and slide tackles would go on forever They had the same thing in a game called World Cup for the NES. They had ice pitched and gravel pitches with rocks scattered about on it. Mega slide tackles on the former, career-ending stubbed toes on the latter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
