Spectrum and Commodore 64 compilations coming

[sleeve]

There was a version of Load Runner done on the N64.

There are, like, 300 different versions of Lode Runner in Japan.

EA did publish those, but Archon was developed by Freefall; does Freefall even exist anymore.

John Freeman is supposedly reviving Archon to be published by Myriad Interactive. EA hasn't owned the franchise for quite a while.

I suspect these compilations will be dominated by UK-developed games which is fine for the Speccy but for the C64, it will be missing a ton of classics developed in North America. I hope I'm wrong, though.

Are these coming out in the US?

I've said it before but I've missed a lot of Spectrum stuff. The hardware is awful and most of the multiplatform games on it I'd rather play elsewhere, but I have to admit there are good games on the systems and I'd like know the library better.

If the DS releases are good, I'd be especially interested, since these games would be ideal for handheld.

I've never played a Spectrum game, and I've only played a handful of C64 games, so I'm looking forward to this comp to at least get some idea as to what those systems had to offer.

Why are those not both on the same disc?
