Re: Hold My Hand Very Tightly (Very Tightly)

Ah I love this song. The first time I heard it was a YouTube vid mixed with ZX classic games, back when I rediscovered the Speccy in ~2010, so it accompanied my synapses firing from seeing so many games I'd not thought of for years. It's mostly the association of that and the Speccy, but it's a gre...

Re: Tape variants for collectors

I love viewing the various cassettes for each Spectrum game, great for the full nostalgia affect. I especially like the yellow cassettes that were in some of the early Mastertronic games, and the Your Sinclair magazine cassettes. Mort has a good collection of cassettes scanned on the internet archive.

Apologies if this has been discussed already, just a site I recently discovered that might be of interest.

Re: New ZX Spectrum Games Book

Hello, fair enough thanks for the feedback, yes the colour does put the price up unfortunately, I will look at changing it to black and white inside. I've never done anything like this before so it's a start I guess.

Thanks again for the comments, appreciate it.

New ZX Spectrum Games Book

Hello, just a quick mention of my new paperback and eBook on ZX Spectrum games, my first published effort so go easy. :) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0893F12B4/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_NJkaFbK6DY1MS I've been quieter on the Spectrum scene the last few years, young kids made sure of that. I used to oft...

Re: Pubs in ZX Spectrum games

Always liked spending time in the Cregley Arms in Inspector Flukeit, for the atmosphere.

Re: game Storm remix

Nice, thanks - used to play this a lot when it came out. I like the added music. Just needs a decent loading screen now. :)

Re: The Dungeon Builder

I've never used the dungeon builder but I used to play The Quest for the Holy Grail adventure. It looks very similar so might have been made by it?

Re: 16/48 Tape Magazine 02 - Dec 1983/Jan 1984

Thanks, such great memories. Issue 02 was the first one I bought, I used to bring the Spectrum down to the living room on the big television to play these games with the family. Back in those days it felt genuinely scary when that vampire was chasing you. My first post here, I must say that this is ...
