A reader celebrates a very personal games-related anniversary, as he recalls how the Commodore 64 got him into gaming.
Wizball is a unique shoot 'em up that came out back in 1987. Retroheadz goes back and sees if Wizball is worth playing again today.
Have this Gem on original cassette for my C64, such an amazing and original game.
Interesting.. Don’t see much retro content like this on N4G. Loved wizball back in the day but never had a c64. Had it on the Atari ST and Amiga.. Unusually I think the c64 version is probably better.
Who disagrees with something like that?
Are there just disagree bots?
Me too, used to play coop with my brother.. (one of you could control the weird little droid thing, which was actually pretty interesting & innovative as a co-op option)
Julie Morley writes: "Players investigate abandoned ships, trying to determine just what went wrong. Pilots are turning up dead. Strange happenings aren't making sense. These journals are getting scarier with every ship explored. With over 50 different ships and multiple star systems to explore, players will have plenty of room for investigation to piece together what they can of this strange mystery."
ThunderBolt: Loading droid library…
My first concrete experience with videogames - I’d dabbled witha Sega Master System in my early junior school years - was with Commodore’s Amiga. I believe the family first had an Amiga 500 (later the 500+), and the floppy disk loading screen will be burnt into my retinas until my final days.
