Mine was midnight resistance on a friend's A500. 1st on my A500 was speedball 2 and on my current beloved A1200 first was, oddly enough, blues brothers.

Hi,

I really don't remember the titles. That was about 18 years ago. There was a type of Arkanoid game, a car driving game with a choice of four models, a mini-put game, and of course Arkanoid.

Nitro?

My first was just before christmas 1987, the A500 came from Dixons in Chesterfield with the Ocean Amiga pack. Wizball and Eco, Eco was bizzare, but Wizball still gets played today!

Dad got me F/A-18 Interceptor for christmas, must've played that for the next 2 years stright   :lol:

My first Amiga game was Hybris, and i played it on an Amiga1000. But the first game that realy made me impressed was Shadow of the beast3.

I'm not sure which one was first, so I'll list them both:

It might have been "Echo", a wireframe 3D-game.  Never really understood what it was about.

OR it was "Captain Blood", a weird game featuring intro music by Jean-Michel Jarre.

Both games sucked bigtime though, but I think I still have the originals laying around somewhere. :)
Code 6502 asm or... DIE!!

A500 with F-18 Interceptor and Test Drive were the first.

I think the first game I played on my Amiga 2000 was Defender of the Crown. The graphics painted by Jim Sachs still look impressive.

Nice topic, but a stress on the memory, must have been 8 years old.  I think it was Silkworm.

Mine was Pirates :) I remember that day like yesterday. I wanted to play that game so much, my mom gave in and bought me the Amiga. I was so desperate, I even tried to play it on C64 from TAPE (one of the most painful experiences in my life) before getting the Amiga. I watched the game in AWE for about a week, all those colorful graphics and beautiful music was just so wonderful, even though I didn't understand much of what's going on since I was young and my English was not enough.

Libyans In Space.

This was the game shown as a demo on the Amiga 500 back in 1987 or so.  That sold me, and I bought the Amiga 500 with that game and also Flight Simulator 2.  Some of the other first programs I had was Deluxe Paint 2 and Deluxe Music Construction Set.

Wow, those were memorable days!  I had DMCS hooked up to my keyboards using MIDI and had fun putting songs together.  And Deluxe Paint was great too.

Sword Of Sodan on my first A500.  Coming from a C64 I can remember being blown away by the size of the characters on screen but the game was a bit rubbish.

Having said that I still load it up now and again :lol: .

I'm not sure what the first game was. But I think it was Donald Duck's Playground, Super Wonderboy or Oswald. All crappy conversions :crazy:

I remember unpacking my first Amiga 500 back in 1987 and loading up Instant Music first, playing with that for half an hour or so.

Soon after I spent the rest of the evening playing Marble Madness.

Later in the week I picked up Tass Times In Tonetown and Archon.

Still have all these copies sitting in my closet.
