Lemmings info

Does anyone remember Christmas Lemmings?

That was brilliant! Lemmings in Santa hats! The creator of Lemmings deserves a knighthood for all he/she has done for us amiga lovers!  :-D

Hi,

Was the best version on the Amiga?

CDTV Lemmings, cool animation, loads of levels, very easy cheat and the dev crew cheers at the end of the game, cool.

[sumner7]

The best version of lemmings I have ever played was that Christmas edition where they are wearing Santa hats. :-) That kicks ass, man!

did you guys ever play the 2-player mode of lemmings?  i thought that was 10x more fun then the singleplayer levels.  there is a new internet multiplayer lemmings-like game named CLONES which lets you relive that fun  grab it from http://www.tomkorp.com/clones/download.asp

About versions: I once saw a PC version of Lemmings 1 and was almost the same as the amiga but...of course Amiga was better!!  

Hmmm... Maybe... But the PC version (when it was released) needed a pretty nifty machine even to get the sound outta it ;-) Oh, and there wasn't a 2-player mode, which I also believe was far too underrated. Soooo many drunken games of Lemmings and Worms  :pint:

maybe i was thinking about the super nintendo version.. it was so long ago my grey matter has trouble with the details  have you tried the multiplayer in CLONES?  i'm looking for opponents to challenge.  the game has a mapeditor too so you could create your own levels

i used to play lmmings so much, i kinda grew to hate those green haired fellas, plus i was pants at it, but thats probably cos i was only like 7 when i played it, blowin them up to kingdom come was always fuin though :lol:  :lol:

Lemmings 2, IMHO, had the most perfect level of difficulty. It took me seven years to complete the game, after buying it in 1993 and finally finishing it in the summer of 2000.
I think I remember being told to save more lemmings after getting a gold piece of talisman - I agree that I think you have to get gold standard on every single level. It is possible, just keep on trying.
The end animation isn't all that good anyway!
Have to concur with the opinions on the two-player mode, although you had to be a passionate player in order to do it. On the Atari ST the two-player mode was unfair because one of the players had to use a joystick. The ST was incapable of reading a mouse from the second port.

jonnyboy we should have a multiplayer CLONES match sometime  my old lemming skills are still in fine form!

[HopperJF]

1993 to 2000 to complete a game!?!?!?
geez!

Hoya!

I agree. On Lemmings 3, you spend more time trying to dodge the monsters than actually SAVING the poor chaps...

I have never managed to finish either of them without using codes...

Be funky

YES! Multiplayer Lemmings was something else.

I was gutted that 2 plater didn't make it to Lemmings 2, which was also something else & I still haven't finished, 1993-20xx?

FuZion.

loooong ago

so that I got all pieces in gold,
but still couldnt watch the end anim.

Incredibly fun game tho!

[AntonioX]
