I didn't have internet back then.

Amstrad was better than the Speccy, Fred, but the C64 was by far the most superior beast

I'm with Harazu, WoW sucked

<:thistbh:582698435896147978>

Yer all wrong

Apple 2e was beast

Fight me

the only problem with getting a CPC today is getting the big ass monitor to work since the Computer power cord and power supply went through the monitor

Apple 2e a) wasn't the same time period, b) not the same price bracket and c) was almost non-existent outside of North America

@Scale_e I hate both, dota for killing the interest in normal wc3 maps, wow for killing warcraft's future <:Veemote:501103628883591188>

If the CPC doesn't have composite out, you'll find all sorts of mods to hook up a modern screen, Fred

wow also created the atmosphere that caused frozen throne to get rushed. and frozen throne would have been best expansion ever. seriously blizzard FUCKING FINISH THE NAGA! I've seen your damn editor you coulda finished them.

I had one in Australia 🤷‍♂️

Also all sorts of power supplies

I never owned an Amstrad and still don't

@Harazu Keshtah eyyy, Blizzard might be finishing naga this wow expansion, they dredged up Azshara <:smugay:593502151758708776>

The early cbm adverts were cringe

if my internet didn't suck that might be an impetus for me to buy in that said I also think the subscription model is just a huge rip off.

Especially the one with William Shatner

mac used to be good untill about the late 2000s

CPC does nice static images, but on effects, audio, and just about everything else except raw 3d, the 64 beats it

*imagine being the poor kid with a Electron/Oric 1*

That's not poor kid, that's parents who didn't do the slightest bit of research

an Electron wasnt *that* bad

you had Elite

it was pretty terrible tho

i was fortunate enough to have a savvy dad who, when faced with the choice between a new spectrum or a used c64 went for the latter

@Eccles where did you move on from the 8-bit mircos?

Did you move to the Atari ST/Amiga?

or the Mega Drive?

I didn't

I went straight to a 486

My C64 was my daily runner until 1995

my dad had an Speccy/Amiga

i was eccentric, even as a teenager

i was in the time of the First Playstation

but i would play CIv 1 and Speedball 2 on my dad's Amiga

he got them throught *weird* means

I got Speedball2, but Civ was out of reach for the 64

X-Copy anyone?

i think my dad still has his Amiga
