Quote from: Dubliner on 13:43, 30 April 24It's been an honor being able to speak to such a nice guy as James. It's one of the longest interview that I ever made but it was absolutely worth it. Thanks everyone for reading and follow him on Twitter if you still use itCurious, What's the background here? Are the interviews only for the online retro maniac magazine? Is that magazine in print form including English version? Do you have a YouTube channel?

I mean... more than 30 years lateQuote from: iXien on 20:31, 01 May 24PS : Really, no chance of starting to play on the 32 arcade backgrounds and have the NES-style ones AFTER ?Sure! You only need to play first to the original version and then put Flipull+ xDDDD
You don't need to think about so much gray is to c64, you need to think that CPC+ open a new palette with no limits, hehehe.
Thanks for the good words!
The problem is that you have explained perfectly. And if you have read the Higgins interview, there is a moment where he says that he though that Ocean and Amstrad had a contract for only doing things for CPC+ and left the CPC behind. We don't know how real is that, but the feelings inside Ocean were that: CPC is OUT! Convert everything to CPC+! And Fast!
And the original idea was not bad, using the 8 bits code + 16 bits design and graphics... if only Amstrad and Ocean would have given the chance for a second wave of GX4000 games, maybe we would have been able to see the real potential of the system.

Quote from: norecess464 on 14:35, 01 May 24Thanks for sharing! I had a very great moment while reading the interview. The questions were really pertinent and the answers, very well detailed! And thanks too for the English translation.@Dubliner's goal is always telling the story from the CPC point of view, a lot of those people that he has interviewed never have been asked specifically about his cpc work or even asked at all.
