Top 150 games for the Amstrad CPC released between 1984 and 2020, in alfabetical order. No CPC+ games included. I know many good games are lacking, but I obliged myself to put a limit on 150 among those I consider being the best.

I had no idea Alan Sugar's baby was capable of such gorgeous graphics! 2023 has already been an eye-opener for me, regarding retro gaming; as a youngster, I saw the Amstrad being sold in a bundle with 'Burnin' Rubber', but at the time I was captivated by the Nintendo Entertainment System. Had I realized that there were such awesome things happening on the home computer scene, games consoles might not have had such a spellbinding effect on me. Great video; not only were there lots of great memories, but also new games to experience. Thank you for putting the time and effort into working on it!

Je ne trouve pas que ça pique les yeux :) C'était comme ça dans ce temps là. Peut-être que dans 20 ans, en 2043, quand nous regarderons les jeux vidéos de 2023 nous nous dirons la même chose: ça pique les yeux ! haha Si on a la chance d'être encore en vie à ce moment là, on verra bien.

@fred972levrai 2 месяца назад

I guess many games were actually developped long after the system was discontinued. We need more programmers like these, doing their best pushing the hardware to its absolute maximum instead of taking for granted that the stupid customer will purchase something new every few months. One of the many reasons i miss these days. We've gone too far for so many things! We don't need any great reset, we need the good one instead.

As an Atari 8bit user I always enjoyed colorful screens. My USIFAC II and ULIFAC cards will work overtime testing this long list of games. Thanks.

I had a lot of these games, it was the best period of my life. I’m so happy to see again all those games that are gone forever now. Boulder dash, Rick dangerous, Crazy cars, Cauldron, Green Beret… It brings back so many good memories…

@piggywahwah Год назад

yea, i remember the stinkers though. The majority of the budget must of went on the games artwork. They were always belters. Youd rush home after spending £10 and youd find out it was horrific. World cup, Out run, etc

Probably one of the greatest home computers of all time. I had one from 1998 - Chrisfmas 1993, when it was retiree by the arrival of an Amiga 600.

@hadorstapa Год назад

What a list. Plenty I knew, plenty I didn't. And a few I would put on the list that weren't here. Amazing the difference in some of what they show the CPC to be capable of. Framerates, colours, dimensions, very variable.

@RogerRobinson79 Год назад

Yes very much so. Seems to me the games from CPC are possibly the most variable of any system. I guess it was hard to code correctly for ? Or at least games developers were unaware how to code for it ?

D autres étaient complètement bâclés comme gradius, salamander, wonderboy... je pense qu ils savaient que l argent rentreraient avec la jaquette du jeu sur l etallage. Souvent ils ne se cassaient pas la tête.. c est sur que les ordinateurs étaient limités mais bien programmé, ça faisait des merveilles.

I wanted to try the CPC, which I didn't have as a kid, and decided to try the games on the list in order. ... ... If 1943 is really among the best the CPC has to offer, maybe I should play some other platform! Only 2 stages that repeat? in 1987? That same year, I bought Tiger-Heli on NES, with only 3 stages that repeat (plus the intro level) with no ending, and I felt cheated. This is even worse! And no one in his right mind would place Tiger-Heli among the nes' best! Hopefully, I'll find better in the rest of the list!

@AndrewHelgeCox 2 года назад

I hope you didn't waste much time looking. As an Amstrad owner back in the day, I confess our love for these machines is highly influenced by nostalgia. You had instant loading, hardware scrolling, sprites, and 60fps gameplay. We had multiple-minute tape loading, all graphics drawn by Z80 CPU software, and 10fps treacle-like gameplay on anything visually complex. Try a 3D game like Elite to find something that might run better on the CPC, or single screen, simple early games like Manic Miner and Chucky Egg for games that played well, staying within the machine's capabilities.

@therobyouknowtv 2 года назад

Amstrad CPC colour home machines had the best or near the top graphics of any 8 bit machine, in my opinion, in terms of both colour and detail of game objects. I say this because with the CPC colour home machines, each pixel can be individually controlled in terms of colour, the only limit being the number of colours in the overall screen mode, i.e. 16, 4 or 2. Much like the BBC Micro, because similar hardware was used. Contrast this with the Spectrum, VIC20, C64 which all had by-design limitations in controlling the individual colour of each pixel. But the CPC had the edge on the BBC Micro with tri-state RGB: 0 50% and 100%, per colour channel, meaning a palette of 27 colours could be selected from for the 16, 4 or 2 colour modes, offering some natural tones and realism, as opposed to the BBC's 8 maximum colours. Nowadays there is the VideoNULA add on for the BBC, offering 4096 colours to choose from, though this wasn't there back in the 80s but an amazing engineering feat nonetheless - find videos of it here on RU-vid. I never owned a CPC, but admire the above capability. Of course, such capability is only one criterion of defining the greatness of a machine.

This computer was in now way shape or form better than a commodore64, in fact it was quite the opposite, the c64 certainly had the best sound and ecosystem

@WinrichNaujoks Год назад

But the Amstrad had no hardware sprites and no hardware scrolling. Unbelievable shortcomings, really. Given that the CPC came out in 1984 and one would have thought that those things are a standard, a must have.

@@WinrichNaujoks The amstrad was a spectrum in drag, they werent great to be honest, especially since the c64 came out a few years earlier and was superior in every way

@@Synthematix It shouldn't have been successful, but it did quite well, particularly in Germany and France. I don't understand why though. It wasn't even cheap. And on top it had those crappy 3" disks, which were like 7 times the price of a 5.25" disk.

Now do a proper CRT recording with 2-3 times the amount of game play per title please.

Такая крутая графика, по сравнению с ZX-Spectrum. Но почему так ужасно выглядят Laser Squad и R-type?

Grew up with Sinclair, Tandy, Apple II, MSX, Amiga but never seen a CPC in person. Its colorful graphics are quite impressive for the period's standards.

@estuansinterius314 Год назад

IMHO ZX Spectrum developers utilized colour scheme to the maximum possible level while CPC had mostly the same picture, except few games. So it is worth to have CPC only if you are going to play Double Dragon III.

@CP200S Год назад

@@estuansinterius314 Thank you for your opinion. Playability for most ZX spectrum games is usually great as his usual kinda-monochromatic graphics, that's a fact. But CPC remaims for me as the fascinating unknown one. Gonna find an emulator for it and check by myself though.

@marcelchrist4069 Год назад

@@estuansinterius314 Maybe, but the palette of the zx spectrum is the reason why i don't arrive to play on it. Added to the color clash is too much for me.
