CPC 664 nombre et versions

by Crazy Piri

Extrait de l'article:

Tout d'abord, une petite introduction avant de passer aux choses sérieuses. Comme certains d'entre vous le savent déjà, je collecte et j'analyse le hardware Amstrad CPC depuis près de vingt ans. Pour ce faire, je collecte des photos des machines, de leur carte mère, des témoignages et surtout les numéros de série.

Après pas mal d'années à saisir à la main ces données dans un tableur, j'ai enfin réussi à entrevoir une logique de production des CPC permettant de vous révéler des curiosités issues d'un produit à première vue uniformisé et industrialisé.

Dans cet article, nous allons voir ce que ces données et mon interprétation peuvent nous apprendre à propos du CPC 664, le nombre d'unités produites et ses différentes versions.

English version is planned

Rockfall 3 is now available for the ZX Spectrum. The earliest levels should be quite easy, if you've played Rockfall or Boulder Dash. But the last few get into real "Kaizo" territory... :evil: However, there is no lives system, so you can keep playing until you get bored or crazy

120 levels to solve

Let´s get out of this planet!

Platform action game

Ciertamente, aún recuerdo la primera vez que jugué a un juego de Packobilly: Papyrus (ZX Spectrum), cuando, aún, prácticamente nadie conocía a este creativo. El título ya tenía gracia y resultaba bastante sorpresivo, siendo una opera prima.

Desde entonces, mucho ha evolucionado el bueno de Packo hasta llegar a su mejor desarrollo hasta la fecha: ARLO

Y es que este extraterrestre dota de mucha personalidad a un videojuego clásico de plataformas y acción pero con un nivel técnico noble y que, seguramente, sea el principio de una gran saga para ZX Spectrum... ¿la peineta, no es un producto patrio?

Perseo tras conocer a Medusa quedó completamente "petrificado" ante su mirada, desde entonces nuestro héroe local solo quiere estar con la famosísima gorgona y no se deja ver por la zona.

Zeus necesita a Perseo para que le haga un trabajo, pero no sabe donde está, por lo que recurre a Bubo (un búho mecánico) para que lo busque.

Ayuda a nuestra mecánica ave rapaz a encontrar a Perseo.
