bohoki Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 late nite youtoobin lead me to "world of sports" on the amstrad and wham there was that oddball bmx game i though it was some kind of one off creation since every other version of california games was that dirt track full of logs and tires and not this hilly lawn of death with haybails you all probably know this but it was shocking to see lynx bmx on another system 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Laser Lynx Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 How interesting, nice find! I had to check it up and I must say the movement, scrolling and the animations are sooo much better done on the Lynx. Not that unrealistic "8-bit" movement/animation can't be really fun and entertaining too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Dragon Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 This could of been a showcase title for the Amstrad GX4000/CPC+ range, but only 4 events and the BMX section being over so quickly, really killed it. Crying shame as you can see it had plenty of potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+karri Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 That would be a great entry to the Lynx 30 years competition. Any takers? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Every time someone mentions California Games, this video comes to mind... That may be the funniest thing I've seen in some time. I think they nailed the zeitgeist of the Facebook/Youtube era perfectly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
power Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I remember playing all the California games to death on the Lynx, some of the tricks you can pull off by clipping things just the right way can lead to insane scores. Each event is easy to play and difficult to master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akira666 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 After all these years, I still learn something new in the Lynx games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 After all these years, I still learn something new in the Lynx games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9MD1BSLZZ0 That’s a nice port, but it makes the Lynx version, with all of its added touches, especially impressive in comparison. I’m still amazed by how much thought and care Epyx put in to its (Handy) Lynx titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
