In the UK back in the years 1994-1996 there was a show called BAD
INFLUENCE that showed all the latest games.
In my opinion it was better than other UK games shows like Gamesmaster
and they showed the Amiga quite a lot.
I remember when they first showed the A1200 and CD32. Firstly it
showed James Pond for backward compatibility discussion then it showed
Oscar on CD32 and everyone was blown away by the speech and 256-colour
graphics.
They continued to review Amiga games like Alfred the Chicken. They
also showed the CD32 playing a movie too, and this was in the same
show that they were showing the latest Mega-CD and NeoGeo games!
Bad Influence continued to cover games up until the first glimpses of
the Ultra-64 (now the previous generation Nintendo64).
Amigas do get onto TV in the oddest of places and occasionaly they are
used to MAKE the TV (Babylon5, Seaquest DSV, Robocop TV series), I
also heard A4000s were used to make the M&Ms men and Terminator 2
parts.
If you search CD32 on Aminet you will see that when Amiga advertised
in the UK they once put a CD32 poster up outside Sega's London
headquarters!
:-D :-D :-D :-D
Not to mention the Chelsea Football Club's AMIGA branded kit. Chelse
is now owned by Britain's richest man!
