The best rereleased Speccy game by React: discussion

Post by PeteProdge »

Yet another imprint from Alternative. Like Winner, this was pure rerelease fodder. And this was very very shortlived compared to Winner, it's just three games and they're all from Martech:

Nigel Mansell's Grand Prix by Martech
Tarzan by Martech
Vixen by Martech

Let me know if I've got owt wrong.

Heh, that's understandable!

Okay, I am going to include this. The loading screen won't raise any concerns and I'll have an in-game screen from early in on the game. Nothing naughty, honest, guv! And there I was thinking Vixen was a bit racy...

Cheers.

Haha! I remember being at school and all the guys wet into overdrive when this came out (we were 11 years old). Someone brought in a review at the time. I never played it till emulation years later (research reasons!) :D

I'd have been 13 when I bought this and played for ages to be thoroughly dismayed at the graphics!
It's one of my main resons for kicking off over censorship on these ancient 8-bit titles - even ASCII art is more "explicit" :lol:

Yeah but what can you expect from the Spectrum? I think the pictures were digitised.
