Spannerman and Laserwarp on the Amstrad CPC 464 in february 1985. The early CPCs didn't have any games bundled, I believe they started including them for Christmas 1986

Ah, all the possabilities

My main purpose was to show the strong interconnections as well as having a go at all the stupid quizes on this site

Thanks Mrs Ant Now with that issue settled, lets move on to the CPC vs Atari ST screenshot. Which one looks better? I assume their playability is about the same on both version. I have only tried the CPC and PC versions

Amstrad - Sinclair http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinclair_Research_Ltd : In 1986 the company sold its entire computer product range and the "Sinclair" brand name to Amstrad.[9][10] This deal did not involve the company, merely its name and products Warner - Atari http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari in...

And the ST is just a CPC with a faster CPU and a larger screen to move around It would be cool to add the ST and Amiga to the 8-bit comparasion screen and score the games not relative to what the machines can do, but relative to each other. The best game would receive 100% no mather how m...

LOL, they would then all look like the green Atari 8-bit Gauntlet picture (in this tread)
