Speccy Games

[stuntpup]

i am putting together a selection of speccy games to put on my gp2x

what are the 'must have' titles ?

bearing in mind the controls !

must be excruciating playing the hobbit with a gp2x !

 

[thumpgun]

bruce lee, turbo esprit, jack the nipper 2 , renegade , rambo , zombie zombie , fruit machine , feud, cauldron, cyclone, driller, school daze, r-type.....i could go on all night ...lol

if you want maps for any games just pm me ,i must have thousands of maps

Yep, tons of great games:

Bomb Jack
Commando
Batty
Manic Miner
Chuckie Egg
Jet Pac
Atic Atac
Knight Lore
Head Over Heals

In fact, if you are a fan of the old isometric games, you really need to check out the GP2x version of Knight Lore. It is a superb remake that plays and feels just like the original but has full colour graphics, music and doesn't slow down in crowded rooms.

The Chuckie Egg and Football Manager remakes are pretty good too.

And don´t forget H.E.R.O , one of the most incredibles games of all times in my opinion It´s an Atari 2600 port i think.

The spectrum port of that was awful! Looks worse than the 2600 version :/

C64 version of that was probably the best.

I agree with you, but the game is the same when you play it

I like to play the best version of emulated games. Don't remember there is a "best version" of any game on the spectrum. Or am I totally wrong?
Of course it is always nice to play the original from your childhood even if there are versions with better graphics and smoother gameplay.
