By the power of the internets it is now possible to link to old spectrum games and have them run in a browser.
via this site
http://www.worldofspectrum.org/ which has pretty much everything I remember.
So I'm going to point out some of the gems within that archive that are still worth looking at as well as some other web crap I guess.
- SpawnOfEvil : An old spectrum 16k game, yes it is still worth talking about.
- PendulaMania : One of those Japanese freeware pc download games for dos but.
- CaveStory : Platform action rpg that I can't not include in this list
