Best ZX Spectrum Loading Screens, Part #1
Part #1 of a selection of some of my favourite ZX Spectrum Loading Screens.
Goldeneye, Nintendo 64
First released in 1997, Rare and Nintendo’s Goldeneye is a classic first-person shoot ’em up with a memorable deathmatch mode.
Alien 8, Amstrad CPC
The famous Ultimate ZX Spectrum game, converted skilfully to the Amstrad CPC and eclipsing the original in the process. More colour – less slowdown! 🙂
Best Commodore 64 Loading Screens, Part #2
The second part of my favourite Commodore 64 Loading Screens.
Best Commodore 64 Loading Screens, Part #1
I love home computer game Loading Screens, and the Commodore 64 has some of the best around.
Jackass: The Game, PlayStation 2
Jackass: The Game on the PlayStation 2 is one of THE best video games ever made. Period. Not only is it THE ultimate multiplayer party game, but it also has an ingenious single-player element too. Ingenious because of the way it unlocks new things as you play. The reward system in this game is just brilliant.
Marble Madness, Arcade
Atari’s 1984 arcade hit was a very early proponent of isometric (meaning: “equal measure“) graphics, with a viewpoint that takes an overhead, three-quarter perspective of the gameplay area, and as a result was a huge influence on many games that followed it.
Fallout: New Vegas, PC
Fallout: New Vegas really is the game Fallout 3 could have been. Don’t get me wrong: I liked Fallout 3 (and loved Fallouts 1 & 2), but the storytelling and decision-making in Fallout 3 I felt left a LOT to be desired.
Morrowind, XBox
In my opinion the Morrowind Game of the Year Edition on the XBox is even better than the much-loved PC original, because the controls are more intuitive.
You may scoff, but having played all the Elder Scrolls games to death over the past two decades, and having written about them a lot in many different magazines, I think that qualifies me to override the opinion of someone who hasn’t done any of those things! 😀
