Rare’s Everwild gets a new trailer from Xbox Games Showcase

July 24, 2020 by Calum Petrie

Rare was a studio that Microsoft never treated fairly in a lot of peoples’ opinions. The studio was given the task of making Kinect titles for the Xbox, a peripheral device that was sadly underused by many developers. This studio that was responsible for so many childhood classics such as Conkers: Bad Fur Day, Banjo […]

zx81 jetpac header

Villordsutch reviews ZX81 Jetpac… Back in 1983 the brothers Tim & Chris Stamper released, via their enigmatic software house Ultimate Play the Game, Jetpac for the ZX Spectrum.  This groundbreaking game was both ever-so-simple to pick up and unbelievably difficult to turn off, it also let all fellow Spectrum programmers know what the Speccy could […]

Video Game Review – Sea of Thieves

March 27, 2018 by Shaun Munro

Shaun Munro reviews Sea of Thieves… It’s been a week since Rare’s long-awaited seafaring multiplayer swashbuckler hit shores worldwide, and as just about any sensible observer expected, the game has drawn harshly divided responses from gamers and critics alike.

Video Game Review – Monty and the Temple of Lost Souls on the ZX Spectrum

February 22, 2017 by Villordsutch

Villordsutch reviews Monty and the Temple of Lost Souls on the ZX Spectrum… Monty Mole from Gremlin Graphics was huge star on the 1980’s gaming scene.  Wanted: Monty Mole rocked the 8-bit gaming world as a wee stubby mole, designed by Peter Harrop, wandering through the British Coal Mines (set during the 1980’s Miners Strike) snaffling coal […]

The Top 100 Your Sinclair ZX Spectrum Games: #79 – Atic Atac

June 10, 2016 by Villordsutch

From one supposed classic yesterday to one real classic today! Arriving at Number #79 in the charts – rather criminally too – is Atic Atac from Ultimate.  You may be instantly wondering – as I was – why this game is so low in the Your Sinclair Top 100. I have no idea and as […]
