The 8-Bit Wars: Ninja Commando

[TL]

[align=center:1hu6ikgh]Let's Compare: Ninja Commando - Atari 800XL vs. C64 vs. Amstrad CPC vs. ZX Spectrum[/align:1hu6ikgh]

[Rogue Trooper]

Speccy version, whilst nice big, detailed sprites did'nt do anything for me, CPC version might have large sprites, but they are pretty blocky, did'nt like the colour scheme either, looked garish in places, scrolling was awful as well.

C64 version, best audio in terms of music, but A8 very close behind, better than A8 sprites at expense of washed out colours.

A8 has weak sprites, very good musivc and i'm a sucker for colour cycling on the title screen, plus best looking in terms of backdrops.

[TL]

Zeppelin really seemed to focus on their A8 games, they were usually excellent and pretty much always had both great graphics and sound. Their Speccy games however were often very lacking indeed.

Easy win for the A8 this IMO.
