Great reviews, keep up the good work  :-D

I ran across a horrible guru error... but thats ok... I was aiming at posting the video today but wasn't expecting I had a bad disk. I got online and downloaded other disks but they all have the same problem...

[edited] - I'll post it anyways... I'll do better on my next review... I'll upload it now...

This is the worse review ever.. but it is a little bit funny... Sorry that I couldn't provide but I ran across way too many issues and didn't have much time to do anything about it.

Don't worry, I won't make another crappy review like this again.

Anyways, here it is...

Hi everyone. I've been making a few Amiga game reviews on YouTube and so far I have two up. I just wanted to share with the community what I have so far and hope to get some positive feedback.



Hi there,

I've enjoyed watching your videos. You did a fine job. I hope to see more in the future.

It would be nice to see videos of how your machine is set up and all.

I just want to add to all the other endorsements you've been receiving here. This reviews are EXCELLENT. Enjoyable to watch, funny, professional and most of all it makes me want to get out the A1200, log in to EBay and start playing! I love this, keep them coming. You could make quite a nice for yourself!

Thank you so much, everyone. I really enjoy making these game reviews. How it all started was that I was going to do game reviews of C64 games that were good, but wasn't popular. My goal was to introduce games that I enjoyed and hope to inspire others to give them a try.

But there was one major problem with that, the software that I use to record wouldn't work well on C64 emulators.

Since the Amiga is tied in my heart with the C64 as best computer ever, I tested the software on that and it worked perfectly (well almost but good enough). So I came up with a new goal. Introduce Amiga gaming to non Amiga gamers and hopefully introduce great games to Amiga gamers who may have missed out on some of these great games.

However, word of my game reviews have spread across other game communities (like the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, NES, Atari, etc...) and my e-mail has been flooded by requests to do other systems as well.

I do have plans to do reviews of games for other systems but not yet. I want to do a few more Amiga game reviews and then take a break to do other systems. Then I'll come back to the Amiga and do some more.

I have no plans to leave the Amiga completely because I will always come back to that system since a lot of my fav. games reside there. :) Plus, the Amiga is still the ultimate computer in my opinion.

It is a real pleasure to revisit this games. I remember when I first got my Amiga 500 back in the late 80's. When I wasn't using that computer, I was dreaming about it. In my small town I was able to convince many of my friends to sell their game consoles and buy an Amiga (and a lot of them did).

Maybe sometime in the future (when I get a good video camera) I would love to do a video of my personal experience with the Amiga and how I keep coming back to it. This may not gain much interest with others but it would be a fun project to try.

Anyways, I have a lot of things I'm currently planning and I have the means to make these plans possible. I'm very excited to get to them as soon as possible.

My next review will be of Turrican 2. I hope to have it up by next week since it is still in the planing stage.

Thank you so much for watching... I'll keep you updated when I have more available. :)

(I tried to comment on youtube, but it didn't let me log in ?!)

Nice reviews and amusing.

I would prefer you uploaded in google video, since it allow us to download the video in the origonal resolution (not the "flashed" low resolution version we see on the browser)

Anyway, thanks

Those were amusing reviews, well produced!

I think I want to get a copy of Nitro, now that I've seen your cool review.

Great... but don't lose the wackyness of the first ones as you continue... that's what makes it worth watching. ;)

Yeah... I sort of tried too hard and I over did the Bruce Campbell gimmick. Another thing is that I have such an emotional attachment with this game so I sort of kept the jokes short.

Nevertheless, I got lots of wise-cracks in store for the future... :)

Thanks for watching.. :)

I have already watched the videos from Speedball II and Turrican II. They are great, thank you for your work. In both Videos very good music and especially the Turrican review is awesome.
Thank you.
