Spectrum Computing and World Of Spectrum probably step on each other's toes a bit too much, but have some good content - a shame there's nowhere to offer comments on games on either of them (I do recall seeing a Spectrum site where you could comment, can't recall the name right now).
It's not the same thing, but CPC Games Reviews ( https://www.cpcgamereviews.com/) is a great read, and the amount of impressive recent developments shows how badly-treated that system was (though its late launch and high price compared to most 8-bits must've counted against it). Plus4World does the same, so many unofficial versions of C64 games being made in recent times. |
I wouldn't consider the CPC a high price, it came with a monitor. My folks evaluated the C64,C128 and the CPC and decided on the CPC because it wouldnt hog the telly.
