only had a speccy and a plus 2 before migrating to st then amiga

knew the c64 had better gfx (as long as the artist was good at drawing that is) compared to the 2 colour colour clashing speccy
i dont know how many games were ports of other versions and not just same name different game so you cant always put one against the other and say "see 'x' is better on mine than yours"

it was a semi even play field in the early parts of the st/amiga years
most were lazy ports to the amiga or limiting the gfx and ditching pal mode in order to downgrade to ST

bot the ST and speccy lacked extra hardware oomph compared to the competition but both dished out enough games to keep people happy
