    Playing jetpack on a friend's specks made me save a year to buy my 16k spec. £99.99 if memory serves me. What a game. Watching this video makes me want to find my old specky out the loft. I wonder if it still works. I wrote a few basic games on it. Ahhhh the memory's.  :)

    I must say as a die hard c64 user for 40 years...speccy games do look tempting enough to go get a second hand ZX.🕹️

    Just got my brand new The Spectrum. Looks and feels 100% like the original but with all the modern essentials built in

    I still have my Spectrum 128 with the cassette loader in the loft, used to love playing Elite, Battlefield Germany and Theatre Europe to name a few

    There has never been a better time to be into retro. It is crazy how much stuff is being done. Good video! 👍

    i had a genuine 48k spectrum back in the day and  i enjoyed many years on the ol speccy before entering the world of the commodore amiga500...i will always have a soft spot for the ol speccy.

    Love it mate, I still have a Currah Micro Speach for the Specy, after getting it to swear a good few times, you just had to get it to say the classic line of our era " How About A Nice Game Of Chess? ":finger-red-number-one::text-yellow-goal::goodvibes:

    I still think it’s great the sound you could get out of a 16/48K Spectrum considering it didn’t have a sound chip.
