  • Spectrum 128 Graphics - A missed opportunity?The Spectrum 128 is my favourite model of the Spectrum - the pinnacle of the Sinclair miracle before it was hijacked by Amstrad. But I can't help thi…

    The so-called superior graphics of the CPC and C64 I think look blocky and fuzzy in most cases. I personally prefer the crispness and higher image definition achieved on the Spectrum. Colour clash not with standing.

    Most common pro-c64 and anti-Speccy comment I heard was one from my neighbour. "The sound is fantastic", he would say, and I would nod sagely and say, "yeah, but dude the graphics are so blocky!". And the arguments would continue back and forth.
