Starring The Computer
A site for answering the real important questions, like what computer did they use in that film?
There is a Commodore VIC-20 in John Wick 2 and a TI-99/4a in Defiance!
Infocom
A great trip down memory lane with the old Infocom games. I played these on the TI-99/4a and then later the Amiga. I didn’t finish too many of them, but they were a fun challenge.
When the iPad came out, they were all ported to iOS along with the maps, 3D representations of the “feelies” (the physical object related to the game that was packaged with the game) looked very professional, but the move from 32 to 64bit on iOS meant it stopped working.
Fortunately, there are still emulators around to play them for now.
