Best Game for the 16K ZX SpectrumMaybe this has been covered before, but I thought I would ask for some "best game" ideas for the 16k Speccy
Surely Jetpac followed closely by Tranz Am both by Ultimate.

50+ FPS GAMESHi guys) Which was the first Speccy game with 50/60 frames per second? And what was the main reason? Thank you
Might have been one of the Ultimate 16k ones like Jetpac, but I actually don't know.
60 fps, if any, would have been for one of the overseas clones like in USA/Brazil? -
