Wow... All those retro-games! :fondmemories: :)

With the exception of all those wickedly fun pinball games like SlamTilt, and
the odd game of Castles II, I must say that what we've been playing mostly
on a real Amiga is TotalChaos-AGA.
If you know of Lords of Chaos (from the authors of U.F.O-Enemy Unknown),
you might get a hint to what the game is all about.
It's strategy, great fun, and most interestingly, it's a multiplayer game!!
If you can't rack up a few friends/foes for a game, the AI is more than
good enough...

Hmm was it a point and click affair (like monkey island, for instance)?

it was adventure-style, iirc it was more similar to Darkseed than Monkey Island, but can't remember very well, i may be mixing games..

I quick-looked the ~700 youtube's "amiga gameplay" games and didn't found it there (looking at the small screenshots, for most, and such captures didn't sound me), probably i was one of the few ppl who liked that game... :rolleyes:

http://www.lemonamiga.com/games/details.php?id=1398

someone remembers it? :)


Edit2: hey, "strange" what i've just found...

The music from that game is "sea of love" composed by Moby... The same Moby who created Natural Blues and Extreme Ways (Bourne's Ultimatum)...(!?), awesome.. i like a lot all three songs, the Moby's album "A Night on NYC" is great! ..didn't know that guy was (is?) an Amigan!

music by JM Jarre ;-)

great artist/musician as well.

hmm, do you mean they do not need to be Amigans by its music appearing on Amiga games, or that both they are/was Amigans who started composing using an Amiga? :)

I'll be flamed for this no doubt, but for me it's certainly Prince of Persia.

But damn, Another World, is also magic.

But then again, the Amiga is magic :D
