GOTHIC CRL's Rocky Horror Show game has now been released on the Amstrad. It looks exactly like the Spectrum version but has a decent sound track a la Commodore. The game was well reviewed for capturing the flavour of the original film surprisingly well - all the favourite characters are depicted, Brad, Janet, Magenta, Eddie the Biker with bike, Rocky Horror, Columbia and Riff Raff. The graphics though small are also well done with an authentically gothic house and weird characters. The music is very well arranged. The opening credits give you a rendition of the Time Warp and throughout the game it recurs deviously arranged in three channels. The other nice touch is a facility to choose whether to be Brad of Janet - whoever you choose your will have been turned to stone. The actual game is simple - get the pieces of the demedusa spell and take them to the main stage within a time limit. The only problem is that it isn't all that difficult -1 got about 75% of the way there first time. Still, that could well turn out to be an attraction for some people.

Page créée en 234 millisecondes et consultée 9001 fois L'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
