^ This is the first PC game I've ever played



Meanwhile my newphews were playing this

1984 C64 vs PC


The Amiga 500 was a beast as well. We enjoyed playing on both PC and Amiga 500 anyway. Slower paced games on PC, anything with lots of sprites and parallax scrolling on Amiga 500. Plus the sound was better on Amiga, lovely chiptunes.

And here's moon patrol on c64 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY2LewqmGeU quite a difference.

I have no clue though what the resolution was of those monitors back then. They were only 14" in size, our tv wasn't much bigger.
320x200 looked fine back then, look at how tiny that is now.

That game cost me so much sleep :)
