Aye, neat game. It grew bored of it very quickly though, there's just not much point :-). No storyline or anything. It faintly reminds me of Damage: The Sadastic Butchering of Humanity (http://www.damagegame.com/introduction.htm) 8-).

OI!..damage ROXX aswell!!
anyway u have QUEST option in this game, try that and it will give u a reason :) its awesome... enjoy it!
-
Haha, damage has a homepage. And you can buy damage t-shirts. That's just excellent.
I've played that game lots and lots. It's just cool in some undescribable way :)
Sincerely,

Gaaaaaah! Finished all levels in Quest mode :pissed:. Need more!
:-).

got my new bppc now so now i really WANT this game on amiga :-) ... but i guess that wont ever happen ;-(

Just wondering...
If Shoot-em-ups is your favorite. I guess then you might be quite amazed from some shooters for the Dreamcast. Sure you dont shoot like on ground, but its air shooting with spacecrafts. The game names are IKARUGA and ZERO GUNNER 2. Both are Japanese titles, but the menus are in english. IKARUGA was made for gamecube, but for some reason the Dreamcast version just rocks the house. :-D

i HATE RSG! but ikaruga i LOVE! :)
anyway i have botha saturn and DC for my shoot em up needs but crimsonland was damned nice too and simplestic!
and tbh i like land and sea and space shooters, both horiz and vertical and 3d iso style ones but i hate FPS games mostly, though some is quite nice in 1 player and others is fun in multiplauyer only :)

You should check out Nexus. My fan page linked in my signature. Very cool game. I got a chance to see it at E3. All I can say is wow!
-
Hoya!
Sorry mates, I am not impressed.
I DO love BITMAP shoot'em ups.
The worst 3d SEU I have ever played was GigaWing2 on... Dreamcast, I think?
It was pathetic, the machine just could NOT cope with all the elements on the screen... Muhahahahaha!
Be funky

dreamcast were and still are awesome consoles, so dont diss the dream!!
secondly, instead of wishing for games to be ported over to the amiga (which by the time happens they will be vvery old and dated, will do nothing for ther platform's reputation), why not work on better equivalents??
better graphics etc to show off the new amigas graphics capability
blast away those thoughts from people that the amiga can only handle 256 colours
-
Hoya!
I am not dissing the DC. I am just saying that this particular game was really pathetic.
I agree with you, we need just a few ports to make people aware that the Amiga CAN do it, then LOADS of brilliant originals to show it can OUTDO them!
Muhahahahahaha!

Why not try Syndicate? That's an addictive yet sadistic war game
viewed from above.
Cannon Fodder had a sequel too, not sure if it was any good. Also I
remember Sensible Massacre being amusing - was this PD?
As for 3D shoot 'em ups my favourite is Lylat Wars (Starfox) on the
N64, the closest on Amiga would be WipEout 2097 I suppose. Radiant
Silvergun was incredibly boring - the most interesting thing about it
was the prices it was getting on eBay!
:-o :-D
I'll have to try Turrican 2 sometime since everyone is raving about
it.
:-)

chromium (http://www.reptilelabour.com/software/chromium/) is a very cool fast paced shooter, I think it's also compiled for the Amiga (under Linux, that is).

tis kinda fun game, I tried the demo, thus far, it seriously lacks variety and atmosphere.
This would be cool if it was the next Alien breed (with Alien Breedish levels)
or if Blizzard would give it a touch of StarCraft (with air units, bunkers, stationary air or ground guns etcetera).
