Game Recommendations/Reviews

[MiAmigo]

There are a lot of Amiga games out there, many easily downloaded. A few we all know about, Turrican, Battle Squadron, Three Stooges, Rocket Ranger...

But there are a lot more that only some of us know about. I want some of those games, but I don't know what they are (the good from the bad.)

That's a nice list! I think I'll leave it at that, lol! :bump:

[MiAmigo]

What kind of games? What genre?

Shoot, anything that comes to mind! I want to broaden my horizons! :laugh1:

[MiAmigo]

I'm playing Gods at the moment, I presume you know about that.

Make a list in the first post of people's suggestions so we can see what to play in one post?

Will do!

Gods is a new one on me!

[MiAmigo]

Just went and had a look at a few screenshots of Gods. I actually have that game.

Came in a collection of 'non-working' floppies that I got with my new A500 a few weeks ago! I recognize it from the cover art of the HUGE plastic case I guess those floppies used to come in.

I would like to be able to play this game, but I'm going to have to download it to do it.

[MiAmigo]

If you have the original floppy and it doesn't work, have you tried cleaning it?

Actually I haven't. I have a lot of floppies that look interesting, but don't work. I'd love to be able to recover some of them and play them.

How do I clean them?

[MiAmigo]

I was thinking of making an instructional video, would that help?

Yes, it would! :laugh1:
I can't wait to try this out - maybe I can save some of my floppies. Sounds like I'd better set aside a Saturday or two!

[MiAmigo]

That's impressive! I actually have a few DOS and early Windows floppies I'd like to restore...

OBTW I had an Amstrad, too! ("Portable", big and gray, TWO floppies, 2400 baud modem, tiny green screen!) I foolishly gave it a way!

[MiAmigo]

I added them all to the list in the first post.

[MiAmigo]

Hey, don't forget Ultima IV and Ultima V!

Done!

[MiAmigo]

Thanks!

[MiAmigo]

Uh..... Syndicate?

Looks very interesting! I added it to the list, which is growing!

[MiAmigo]

Duly noted - and added to the list!
