Hoya!

EH! I liked Savage! I thought it had an Amstrad CPC feel in it. Besides, I had it on CPC too!

What about Lombard Rally? The point of view form the back seat was interesting, and you could see the co-pilot, too, but the game was SOOOOO slow and IIRC sound was not very good either.

And what about Alien Breed 2???
Brilliant gfx, brilliant sfx but impossible to play!
The difficulty level was just INSANE! 17 levels... Yeah, right, I have never been past the second one...

Any other?

Wooot!!!???!
SpeedBall 2 is ALMOST perfect! Only one flaw: the fact you control the goalie when he appears on screen. You try to dodge your opponents, the goalie moves as well, the opponent throws the ball and... GOOOAALLL! Argh!

You think playing against the CPU sucks??!
Well I agree playing with a mate is best but try to play in tournament mode and reach the *first* division... THEN you will have fun :-E

SpeedBall2 for ever!!!

Yeah! I do agree, Wings is a fantastic game!
The atmosphere of this game is incredible, you ARE part of the Squadron!
Anyway, Cinemaware were quite good at delivering great game.
Although I never really liked their sports games, I LOVE Rocket Ranger, It came from the desert 1&2, Wings.
Boy, that what I call GREAT games!. OK, though, I agree that in ICFTD the scrolling during your hospital escape is TERRIBLE!...

SpeedBall2 is da man!

Hey! I have an idea for a new thread! Follow me... ;-)

Hoya!

Psygnosis did, IMHO, some of the finest Amiga games BUT if you wanna see an awful game, forget Obliterator!
Just try their VERY first game on Ammy! It is called Bratacas.
Basically, it looks like a Spectrum game, with only FOUR colours! :-D
Beat this!
