The Speccy was very much the best of both worlds having absolutely cracking little UK developed games such as Jet Set Willy and Technician Ted alongside some absolutely smashing little Japanese titles such as Rainbow Islands and Chase HQ.

Rainbow islands was a fine conversion. Chase HQ was horrific.

Why would AVGN get the girl though? It would be totally inconsistent with the character.

Even though the movie was dogshit that random black guy was a better sidekick than Mike Matei ever could be.

The movie needed some stability. It was all over the place and this was just another example of that.

Mike would've been too big for her anyway.

I'll be the first to admit that the Speccy was crap even though I have very fond memories of my ZX +2 128k from the mid-late 80s (and I still love Jet Set Willy). I think anyone that had one back in the day can truly embrace its crapness now. Also Your Sinclair is still the best computer mag I've ever read.
