Most annoying Amiga game in the world.

Platoon. 1 of my fave games from the C64 yet on the Amiga the enemy seem to shoot before being on screen which means Im dead before I can decide if I need to duck or jump their bullets

Well lets see I didn't have much luck with quite a few psygnosis games though I enjoyed them I'll leave them off the list but:
Nebulus - Just happy to hear I wasn't the only one that had issues with it.

ChaseHQ - Yeah driving games are apparently not my forte could never catch the first guy.

TheSLASH!: As a kid I did make it to the end in Rick Dangerous. Was a huge fan of the game. In the second version, it tells you that there will be a no. three. I think I saw a demo of part III, but that was about it.

wow, alot of annoyed gamers! i actually nearly wrecked my cd32 controller *gasp* need to calm down when i use helter skelter again. :-P

Worst Game ever :
Prey - An alien Encounter (CD32)
A tiny Part of the Game looks really good
but Prey is a bad Excuse of a Game.
The worst Part are the Fighting Sequences
someone didnt get the Graphics finished  :-?
I still regret buying it, some Demo Versions
offer more Gameplay and Fun than this.

Lammatron, without a doupt was the worst Amiga game ever. The sounds were enough to drive you up the wall and then make you fall down the other side :-o

Another World (Out of This World in USA) is hard, but passable.  Brother beat it after just a few hours.

He also beat Shadow of the Beast 2 and got good. I still wonder how the heck he even did it because the game is next to impossible.

As far as an annoying game, its Motorola Invaders....LOL

Same music, and the falling sound is quite annoying.  :lol:  :-D

Llamatron sound effects are like a cross between an old science fiction movie, a barn full of rabid sheep and a cheap porno. It's not a bad game though - just a little strange.

I really love pinball dreams.
Pinball illusions was in my opinion overrated though and i love both fantasies and slam tilt as well.. The problem i noticed with Pinball Illusions is that the flippers are very unresponsive for some reason as it lags a bit when you press the shift/alt keys and this never happened with the other 3 pinball games i mentioned.
Anyone else noticed this issue?

The best pinball game I've played is Sonic Spinball on Megadrive/Genesis.

Imagine the ball being able to walk and jump etc. It was gripping getting to the boss battles and having a sort of inertial control over Sonic (a bit like tilt in other games).

Most annoying Amiga game for me is Zeewolf. Whoever thought controlling a helicopter with a mouse was a good idea should be strangled. Nice effort with the 3D graphics, pity the horizon was about 10cm away. Desert Strike was better.

A joint award goes to all games that forced you to sacrifice sound-FX for a soundtrack. Or vice versa!

I think that was mostly due to the 4 channel audio limit on the classic Amiga. I dont see the problem as long as you have a choice.. For example i rather liked to listen to the mod tracks of games like lotus turbo, jaguar and similar.

[Hyperspeed]

Yeah, but what about people who want the choice of BOTH!

:-D

Some games felt like you were walking around in the Antarctic (Dennis AGA) because there was no background music or ambient Sound FX.

And having music with no Sound FX takes a big chunk of the feeling of the game away.

Zool did this I remember, but Kid Chaos managed both (and faster scrolling!).

It was excusable on OCS/ECS but not on AGA machines!

I was wondering if someone could point where ADFs of Lemmings and Nebulus would be found... sounds cool.

[irishmike]

actually found Lemmings 1 and 2... now just looking for an ADF of Nebulus ;-)

Superfrog! I love the game but the music drives me mad after a while.
