He, that pretty much brings together all the best ideas of Doom, Rise of the Triad, Blood and Duke Nukem 3D

... which is awesome!

Now its just 2 more weeks for the starter set, with new maps tailored for Brutal V20.

Will be fun!

I got up to Level 5 of the original Doom, and I am impressed at what I have seen so far.

We've just been given the heads up of a brand new ZX Spectrum shooter inspired by Scramble, that will have ZX retro gamers across the globe hammering their space button and requiring fast reaction time while admiring the many speccy graphics that race up the screen at a blistering pace. This is 'EXPLORER'

Cool, I like Scramble. I think I will install ZX SPIN and download this game.

Neil79 · 14 June 2015, 13:39

Yet as is the case with Arcade games of that era, many of them were ported to home computers and consoles thanks to US Gold. One such game was Out Run and the famous Amstrad CPC version, famous for completely the wrong reasons. As such one such user by the name of Barbarian.1987 set out to remake the Amstrad CPC game (since 2012/3) as a what if on your PC.

Many years later, a homebrew port from the Gameboy version did appear on the Amstrad CPC by Hermol but many felt that it wasn't a true reflection of the Amstrad's detail. Fast forward to 2013-2015 and a very impressive homebrew remake titled 'Street Fighter II - CPC Edition' is being developed by DaDMaN, McKlain and AugustoRuiz for the Amstrad CPC 6128 (128Kb RAM).

Nostalgia are going to release Ghosts'n'Goblins Arcade this weekend, perhaps even today Saturday! True to form, this version will be a faithful version to the original arcade, whereas the original Commodore 64 version is somewhat different from the arcade version as it only features the Graveyard and Forest, The Ice Palace, The Floating Platforms and Firebridge and The Caves in that order. So if you thought Commando Arcade SE was brilliant, wait till you play this!

because the c64 and the spectrum retro-scene have much more fans than the Amiga scene
also those old computers are much more easy to program/ create new stuff compared to the Amiga

Mainly this than the first one, for example the Amstrad scene really struggles because of the lack of a proper construction kit. The easier it is for people to make fantastic games the more likely of seeing great releases

Marvellous

Retroplay · 20 June 2015, 21:53
