“Great conversion of GRYZOR, well, of PROBOTECTOR for GAME BOY, devised by OLDSCHOOL and made with AI, which has decent scrolling and plays quite well.”

“Amstrad CPC remake **made by Claude** (Anthropic’s AI), **directed by Michel Louvet** ”

I really do not understand what is ‘great’ about this. Judging from what I see in the video, it is indeed a conversion of a game to the CPC. And that’s about it. Are the graphics great? Absolutely not! Is the scrolling great? Hell no! The animation? The sound?

Actually, ‘Average’ would be more fitting and even that could be considered generous.

Let’s keep apples to apples. The CPC indeed has great games. This sits nowhere near in comparison.

“It’s a different, AI-made version of the GAME BOY version. I agree with everything you wrote, except I said ‘great conversion’ because it’s faithful. Having GAME BOY ports isn’t a bad thing, and I imagine there will be updates until it’s polished. Nothing released with AI now is going to take away from AMSTRAD’s commercial catalog, nor from the ‘HANDCRAFTED’ era of the SCENE.

Give it a spin because it’s not bad at all. It has plenty of rough edges, but the development of the ENTITY goes like this: then in under two hours, there are seven hundred improved versions. 😃”

Well, it’s interesting as an exercise - play a GB title on the CPC. No idea why, when the CPC has a much better version already, but ok 😃

PS People, please put posts in the correct categories 😃

Sure, I understand your take. But words have specific meanings. We chose ‘Great’ because if, fe, he was ‘Alexander the Average’, no-one would have cared about what he had been doing in his short life.

‘Faithful conversion’ would be the fare description here. And since it wasn’t even made by a human (meaning I could render my own if I cared), I don’t feel like giving it more credit than what is deserved.

Also, I had a look at the GB version of probotector and it looks nothing like the CPC adaptation. Then, in the author’s itchio I see it is a conversion of the NES version. So, which is it? Did the AI hallucinate, or the person asking the AI hallucinate? It’s the chicken/egg dilemma but for 2026. 😋

My mistake. Thanks for the heads-up.

😃 After arguing in favor of keeping things separate, here I go diving right into the river. Sorry about that.

“What nitpickers 😃 I’ll drop the “great” port thing because to me what matters in this kind of game is reflecting the model version, which is the NES one, and it does that.” I’m not arguing whether the AI is a good or bad person. Your opinion of the game and of me is loud and clear. You don’t like me 😃 “

I am not sure I understand what you are saying. However if I am correctly reading the ‘about reflecting the NES version’ notion, then, no, the CPC version isn’t doing a good job. One may put both versions side by side even on youtube, compare and see how the CPC adaptation is dreadfully lacking in pretty much every sector.

I believe the above is simple and (edit, dammit! :P) _ **objective** _ enough. There’s no other narrative around it.
