In 1983 More than any other computer can offer. For less. The SINCLAIR SPECTRUM ZX The most popular computers in the world! #FabAds 🌟📟📟

Nick Jenkin For '83 it was advanced. Manual or auto gears. Slow or fast steering turns, engine Revs and heat. The 3D zipped along and you got a sense of speed. Is it the first proper driving sim? Before this I can only think of arcade style driving games. I loved Chequered 🏁

Last Sunday, we shared the story of the reconstruction of a lost TIMEX project: the TENET, a computer network built with ZX Spectrum computers. Due to the significance of the project, we prepared a video that documents it all. youtube.com/watch?v=36qIhs…

40 years ago, CRASH featured this superb Backpacker's Guide to the Universe cover. The level of detail here was incredible, but nothing less than you'd expect from Oli Frey, who is easily the greatest video game magazine cover artist of all time.

40 years ago, Crash ran an epic joystick mega-review, which resident artist Oli Frey turned into a fabulous cover featuring the Quickshot II and Competition Pro sticks as giant war machines. Very cool concept, even if the image was very dark and was hard to see all its details.

Updated the ZX Spectrum Games Quiz, added 100 new images and questions. For all those retro fan out there, give it a try: exquizitely.com/quiz/ZX-Spectr… I grew up with the C64 but got to appreciate the ZX Spectrum later in my retro-journey. Certainly a great computer back in the day!

I reacquainted myself with my 30-year-old Speccy +3, at my mum’s house, and found the Crash computer cover in the box.

Some traditions are worth preserving…
