The time has come to tell the complete history of the ZX Spectrum 128K +3 and, also, point out some of my favorite games to play on this incredible machine!
ZX Spectrum 128K +3 :: HISTORY & GAMES | It's a Pixel THING - Ep. 135
Great video.
I have a soft spot for the Speccy, but wasn't keen on the Amstrad manufactured versions. The plus 2 was temperamental at loading tapes, the plus 3 I bought a Multiface to backup tapes to disc, but still ended up digging out the old rubber keyboard Speccy. Most of the games look terribly dated and I doubt anyone that wasn't around in the Speccy era would give the games a 2nd look.
I use Spectaculator for Spectrum games now, instant loading and save states. The nostalgia of waiting for tapes to load soon wears off...
The Commodore Amiga had so many amazing exclusive games that everyone should try! Here's a few more!
AMIGA EXCLUSIVES :: Part 2 | It's a Pixel THING - Ep. 136
The Amiga was another favourite of mine. So many good games, especially after upgrading from a Spectrum. The Dizzy series looked great after playing the Speccy versions, also Rainbow Islands and Stormlord. I liked puzzle based games such as Benefactor, One Step Beyond and Pushover. But I could go on all day about how many good game the Amiga had, so I'll leave it there.
Another good video, thanks.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and opinions, guys! Truly appreciate it!
More Amiga Exclusive games will come

PICKUPS 15: Games + Hardware + Stuff | It's a Pixel THING - Ep. 137
I like the look of the Spectrum DivIDE. Only thing is I'd be scared of knocking it whilst the Speccy is switched on, I had a Multiface for one of my rubber keyboard versions and killed it by accidentally knocking the Multiface whilst the machine was powered on.

I picked up a new old stock PAL Turbografx with an Everdrive a while back. Pac-Land is a particular favourite of mine on this system.
