by

Villordsutch reviews Sinclair ZX Spectrum: a visual compendium… Being born in the 1970’s I have the Sinclair ZX Spectrum rainbow colours coursing through my veins.  I still today fly the flag of the ZX Spectrum and though I’m more than happy to allow some gently mocking of this 8-bit machine to been tossed around, my greying hackles […]

Video Game Review – Poncho

by

Villordsutch reviews Poncho… Poncho from Delve Interactive is a 2D platform game embracing to the fullest the parallax-scrolling method with a rather unique in-and-out game mechanic using three separate planes: background, middle and foreground for you to utilise your movements throughout the world.

Hardware Review – ZX Spectrum Vega

by

Villordsutch reviews the ZX Spectrum Vega… I’ve been interested in getting my hands on the ZX Spectrum Vega since its conception a year or so ago.  I’ve been a ZX Spectrum user since the early 1980’s, my first Sinclair product was the ZX81, then I went straight to the hard-shelled 48K and moved to the […]
