Hmm, I've suddenly gotten the urge to get one of my ZX Spectrums out, and as I usually go with my 48k rubber key one, I think I'll go with the +2 for a change.

Ah, I remember thinking that wireframe graphics like this were amazing. They still certainly have a nice charm to them.

Starstrike 2 was an amazing vector graphics game. Very fast, smooth and joy to play.

@raymierussell I don't know that one (I only got my first Speccy about 10 years ago), I'll have to investigate.

@ellieraejaye I remember thinking Elite was the best games could get graphically.

@Nia0 it's still mindbending how they managed to get a whole galaxy in such limited memory.

Sighs in nostalgia (Elite on C64) but also the old Vector graphics arcade machines were so cool, especially in color...

Asteroids, Asteroids Deluxe
Star duel
Battlezone
Tempest
Star Wars
etc

@ellieraejaye I‘m still dreaming of the whales swimming in Jupiter‘s atmosphere (Starglider 2)
