Re: World of Spectrum....

Has it been slower than anyone would have liked? Yes. But the fact is, WoS is still there. At least someone saved it, and is still working on it. Meanwhile, how many other sites about 1980s and 1990s computers have disappeared without much trace? Mark I apreciate a lot your posts in WoS, so I will ...

Coming soon!

I had the idea that we could use this space to announce games that are close to be released or announced! What do you guys think? I will start with: -Qbox- This is an isometric game that was made with AGD and is really going to surprise and drop some jaws! Written by Sergio Llata, who used to code a...

Re: Introduce yourself!

I am Ivan, a Spaniard living in Germany for the almost last 8 years! (Ja!) I bought my first Spectrum, a +2A, in Xmas 1988 and since then I am a Spectrum fanatic. Brought my Speccy to Germany and I fell in love with the Homebrew scene since I came back to the Spectrum in the internet era (2003) alth...

Re: Disappointing coin-op conversions

Some bad conversions: - Kung Fu Master - Double Dragon - Final Fight - Eswat - Mario Bros Outrun actually isn't the worst. It's a bit slow but has decent graphics. Its funny, because from those games, Kung Fu Master, and Double Dragon there are homebrew attempts to improve the originals. And Mario ...

Re: Preservation of MIAs

Andre Leao, thanks for sharing all those MIAs, I saw your posts few weeks ago and your work is really appreciated ;)

By the way, in a Facebook group of Spectrum stuff, there was a guy from Romania who posted his works on the Spectrum, I will ask him again :)

Hi 5minuteRetro and all! Nah, I dont think we need to close threads here, I think this should be a place where we can speak like adults and not going crazy with childlish reactions. I also think that we should focus on positive things (karma always comes back! :P) so I personally will try to forget ...

Hehe that Soko XXX must be fun :D Looking forward to seeing what will come up finally and thanks Dave for the so good idea (wh...
