Name the top computers of the 1980's... okay, if the Spectrum wasn't on that list, you need to read up on your history! From an American gamer's perspective, is Sinclair's 48k wonder worth getting today? How about all of those PAL / NTSC problems? This video covers the newcomer bases in this review of:

The ZX Spectrum is 35 years old on 23rd April 2017, and it also holds a very special place in my heart, so it's time to wish it a happy birthday... It's the machine I grew up with and which led me to creating this very channel. I've covered the Sinclair ZX Spectrum in the past, but frankly I didn't do it justice, so we're revisiting Sir Clive's iconic 8 bit home micro in detail, starting with The Sinclair Years in this two part documentary.
This first part explores Clive Sinclair's early years, from his childhood to the formation of Sinclair Radionics in 1961, through the mini amplifier period, pocket calculator, black watch and finally his range of computers, starting with the MK14 and culminating in the ZX Spectrum 128k. We'll look at the people involved behind the Spectrum such as Jim Westwood and Chris Curry and explore other avenues such as the famous punch up between Clive and Chris in a Cambridge pub. So hold on tight, and let's get cracking with Jet Set F**king Willy.

The Top 10 ZX Spectrum Games
The ZX Spectrum played host to some of the best games of the early eighties. Covering a wide range of genres. Here are my personal favourites. These are games that look at only one vital ingredient, playability. If you're new to the ZX Speccy, these are the games Classic Replay recommends you should look to play first or have in your collection.
Naturally, I haven't played every single ZX Spectrum game and these lists are always highly subjective, but I've at least tried to show much thought process and the difficulty involved with nailing a top ten.
Please note these are my personal favourites since discovering the ZX Spectrum...

The ZX Spectrum, not the most powerful machine, but it's tremendous popularity over the years meant that there were plenty of developers who were willing to really push the limits of what it could do. Many games were shoe-horned into it that you might not expect would fit, some good, some not so good!

Hello and welcome to the fourth episode of TOP 50 games in under 10 minutes.
We go back to 1985 today to check what kind of games we played on our beloved ZX Spectrum back then and to see the games that we think are the top 50 games for ZX Spectrum in that year.
Looking back, the 1985 was a year that shown us what can be done with the little old "Speccy".
The graphics and animations in Robin of The Wood, Nodes of Yesod, Mikie and Way of The Exploding Fist were really first class. And we can't forget the 3d masterpiece that was Elite from Firebird Software. We also got some fantastic shooters that year, like Commando and Rambo.
Games are, as always, presented in no particular order.
Have fun and let us know in the comments if you agree with our choices (and if we missed a title that should be on the list), and see you in the next one!

I was very lucky to have this almost new Spectrum ZX 48K from a very good friend as a gift.
The computer is in excellent condition and had inside the original power supply, warranty paper, receipt from 1984 and the cables needed for connecting it.
I am not sure if the keyboard is functioning properly because some of the buttons don't work.I haven't done any research yet how to use this little computer so if anyone can help will be appreciated.
Thanks for watching!

Do you remember… The ZX Spectrum had so many fantastic, and very important releases for the future development of video games, in the library. There were also some great ports of arcade games, but as these games had their origin on the arcade machines they can not define the ZX Spectrum, they define the arcade games from that era. So games like R-Type, Commando, Enduro Racer, Super Hang-On, Super Monaco GP, Spy Hunter, Green Beret, Chase HQ, Rainbow Islands, Renegade etc. is not included in this video.
Games ported from other computer systems is also not included, because they define the other computer systems, and not the ZX Spectrum. So games like Bruce Lee, Elite, The Way of the Exploding Fist, International Karate, Uridium, Thrust, Mission Impossible, Boulder Dash, The Eidolon, Rescue on Fractalus etc. is also not included.
A huge description of the games included in the video is to find in two comments in the comments section!

ZX Spectrum
The ZX Spectrum (UK /zɛd ɛks ˈspɛktrəm/) is an 8-bit personal home computer released in the United Kingdom in 1982 by Sinclair Research Ltd.
Referred to during development as the ZX81 Colour and ZX82, the machine was launched as the ZX Spectrum by Sinclair to highlight the machine's colour display, compared with the black and white of its predecessor, the ZX81. The Spectrum was ultimately released as eight different models, ranging from the entry level model with 16 KB RAM released in 1982 to the ZX Spectrum +3 with 128 KB RAM and built in floppy disk drive in 1987; together they sold in excess of 5 million units worldwide (not counting numerous clones).
The Spectrum was among the first mainstream-audience home computers in the UK, similar in significance to the Commodore 64 in the USA. The introduction of the ZX Spectrum led to a boom in companies producing software and hardware for the machine, the effects of which are still seen; some credit it as the machine which launched the UK IT industry. Licensing deals and clones followed, and earned Clive Sinclair a knighthood for "services to British industry".

The Top 10 ZX Spectrum Games
The ZX Spectrum played host to some of the best games of the early eighties. Covering a wide range of genres. Here are my personal favourites. These are games that look at only one vital ingredient, playability. If you're new to the ZX Speccy, these are the games Classic Replay recommends you should look to play first or have in your collection.
Naturally, I haven't played every single ZX Spectrum game and these lists are always highly subjective, but I've at least tried to show much thought process and the difficulty involved with nailing a top ten.
Please note these are my personal favourites since discovering the ZX Spectrum...

Hello and welcome to the fourth episode of TOP 50 games in under 10 minutes.
We go back to 1985 today to check what kind of games we played on our beloved ZX Spectrum back then and to see the games that we think are the top 50 games for ZX Spectrum in that year.
Looking back, the 1985 was a year that shown us what can be done with the little old "Speccy".
The graphics and animations in Robin of The Wood, Nodes of Yesod, Mikie and Way of The Exploding Fist were really first class. And we can't forget the 3d masterpiece that was Elite from Firebird Software. We also got some fantastic shooters that year, like Commando and Rambo.
Games are, as always, presented in no particular order.
Have fun and let us know in the comments if you agree with our choices (and if we missed a title that should be on the list), and see you in the next one!

Do you remember… The ZX Spectrum had so many fantastic, and very important releases for the future development of video games, in the library. There were also some great ports of arcade games, but as these games had their origin on the arcade machines they can not define the ZX Spectrum, they define the arcade games from that era. So games like R-Type, Commando, Enduro Racer, Super Hang-On, Super Monaco GP, Spy Hunter, Green Beret, Chase HQ, Rainbow Islands, Renegade etc. is not included in this video.
Games ported from other computer systems is also not included, because they define the other computer systems, and not the ZX Spectrum. So games like Bruce Lee, Elite, The Way of the Exploding Fist, International Karate, Uridium, Thrust, Mission Impossible, Boulder Dash, The Eidolon, Rescue on Fractalus etc. is also not included.

The ZX Spectrum is 35 years old on 23rd April 2017, and it also holds a very special place in my heart, so it's time to wish it a happy birthday... It's the machine I grew up with and which led me to creating this very channel. I've covered the Sinclair ZX Spectrum in the past, but frankly I didn't do it justice, so we're revisiting Sir Clive's iconic 8 bit home micro in detail, starting with The Sinclair Years in this two part documentary.
This first part explores Clive Sinclair's early years, from his childhood to the formation of Sinclair Radionics in 1961, through the mini amplifier period, pocket calculator, black watch and finally his range of computers, starting with the MK14 and culminating in the ZX Spectrum 128k. We'll look at the people involved behind the Spectrum such as Jim Westwood and Chris Curry and explore other avenues such as the famous punch up between Clive and Chris in a Cambridge pub. So hold on tight, and let's get cracking with Jet Set F**king Willy.

Have fun and let us know in the comments if you agree with our choices (and if we missed a title that should be on the list), and see you in the next one!

I was very lucky to have this almost new Spectrum ZX 48K from a very good friend as a gift.
The computer is in excellent condition and had inside the original power supply, warranty paper, receipt from 1984 and the cables needed for connecting it.
I am not sure if the keyboard is functioning properly because some of the buttons don't work.I haven't done any research yet how to use this little computer so if anyone can help will be appreciated.
Thanks for watching!

Do you remember… The ZX Spectrum had so many fantastic, and very important releases for the future development of video games, in the library. There were also some great ports of arcade games, but as these games had their origin on the arcade machines they can not define the ZX Spectrum, they define the arcade games from that era. So games like R-Type, Commando, Enduro Racer, Super Hang-On, Super Monaco GP, Spy Hunter, Green Beret, Chase HQ, Rainbow Islands, Renegade etc. is not included in this video.
Games ported from other computer systems is also not included, because they define the other computer systems, and not the ZX Spectrum. So games like Bruce Lee, Elite, The Way of the Exploding Fist, International Karate, Uridium, Thrust, Mission Impossible, Boulder Dash, The Eidolon, Rescue on Fractalus etc. is also not included.
A huge description of the games included in the video is to find in two comments in the comments section!

Flashback to the 1980s (No De Lorean Required!) with these classic TV ads aired in United Kingdom. ZX Spectrum was a literally a game changer when it was released in the early eighties by Sir Clive Sinclair. A huge step into the future for home gaming.

ZX Spectrum
The ZX Spectrum (UK /zɛd ɛks ˈspɛktrəm/) is an 8-bit personal home computer released in the United Kingdom in 1982 by Sinclair Research Ltd.
Referred to during development as the ZX81 Colour and ZX82, the machine was launched as the ZX Spectrum by Sinclair to highlight the machine's colour display, compared with the black and white of its predecessor, the ZX81. The Spectrum was ultimately released as eight different models, ranging from the entry level model with 16 KB RAM released in 1982 to the ZX Spectrum +3 with 128 KB RAM and built in floppy disk drive in 1987; together they sold in excess of 5 million units worldwide (not counting numerous clones).
The Spectrum was among the first mainstream-audience home computers in the UK, similar in significance to the Commodore 64 in the USA. The introduction of the ZX Spectrum led to a boom in companies producing software and hardware for the machine, the effects of which are still seen; some credit it as the machine which launched the UK IT industry. Licensing deals and clones followed, and earned Clive Sinclair a knighthood for "services to British industry".

The Hype
Practicing a religion of deception
Playing human ignorance and trust
Divine, dictates
To be allegiant, flexible and wretched
They're creating profitable preconceptions
Lending credence to nonsense
The arrogant, depraved
Man - their instrument of prey
To satisfy their hunger is our question
Fat leeches feed weak body of our earth
Insatiable, voracious
Those never feel replete
Chorus:
You don't enjoy
My confidence
Sophistic
You're not in my good grace
They're creating profitable preconceptions
Lending credence to (an obvious) nonsense
The arrogant, depraved
Those never feel replete
Grim, magnificent seducers
Aimed to astray us and mislead
We're paltry, exposed
You don't even suspect
That you're controlled
Chorus:
You don't enjoy
My confidence
Sophistic
You're not in my good grace
