  • Love these write ups. I lived through the platform wars fighting on the side of Light (Spectrum) against the hordes of darkness (C64) and the one grey teary Amstrad user.

    Loved Bomb Jack, it’s a great game and I think it’s going into the curriculum for the kids next week to show them a great game with a simple game dynamic compared to them playing tosh on Roblox all of the time.

    I remember playing the arcade on a ferry to France as part of a school trip. Best part of the trip was this cab.

    Thanks for the memories.














  • Bit late to this party but R-Type was one of favourites at the arcades and back when ther were so many outstanding games.

    I occasionally get my kids to try them and despite the fact the controls are so much easier they can’t play them, the games are too hard!!!

    I feel the same way about their games or at least the controls, I feel like I need to learn to be a court stenographer to use the controls using multiple combos to do something. Pah I say!
