Games on an accelerated 030 Amiga?

I guess from your name that you're a fan of a certain model of Escort Mk3.

Shopped! I've always been into sporty classic Fords since my late teens and the first forums I ever signed up too were for Ford enthusiasts. I tend to use the same username that I did for the RSOC website what must be over 10 years ago now! I must have been conceived in Essex possibly?!

Frontier Elite II, and that will also make use of the FPU!
Even on a 060 it will go, it's one of the few games that really kicks the ass of your cpu and fpu :roflmao:
 
If it goes too fast, it will probably crash anyway :roflmao:

I am definitely going to have to buy a copy of Elite II - I was too immature and impatient back in the day, I think with more worldliness and patience I would actually love it.

Bizarrely my plan with my Amiga is actually to indulge in the games I never really played properly, the stuff I played to death like Chaos Engine and Cannon Fodder, although I have found memories I feel like i have done these now Too many cool things to do/play and not enough time in life I find

Many thanks again everyone, I really appreciate it

I once played James Pond 2 on a A2000 with 030 processor, and the game was too fast plus there was some flickering on the screen. I found the game to be very hard because of this.

I'm considering a ACA630 for my A600 as well, but I hope it will include the possibility for temporarely disabling the 030 either via a keyboard combo on startup, or via a switch.

I would really like a Indivision ECS but I don't want to loose my floppy drive - I am really gutted otherwise I would buy one of these as well

The ACA630 has an onboard jumper that turns an externally connected drive (DF1) into (DF0).

So you can remove the internal drive, and use an external one in it's place.
