Missing games...

[lempkee]

There is heaps of discontinued games, mostly because of the Commodore death.

anyway one of the games (except for Putty squad) i want the most is : WJS (former Psygnosis and Ocean Team) 's MIGHTY MAX , its a plattformer, i have like 3 previews of it and a small demo
, its a very polished game (VERY!!!) its a mix of Mr Nutz and Brian the lion (or something) , plattformer yes..
It was supposed to hit Cd32 and A1200  in 95, but due to it needed fast mem and abit more than what the cd32 could offer...., the game got canned (Afaik)

I have tried to reach WJS, but i cant find em listed anywhere (as a company now) , also did OCEAN split up and went to Infogrames and Team17? or???

Psygnosis in 94 was like ..err not a good team, sony bought it and all the good teams left them or made only special contracts, then added alot of junk teams into em (like THE DOME,SPIDERSOFT etc)
Reflections moved to GTI,DMA moved aswell....no wonder Superhero and G2 never came...or all the other Special games that we waited for...

Last i checked, lambda was still in development.

And i think it will come eventually, but the guys behind it are still busy (anything new?)

Anyway i am not sure due to that its "OH My god" over 1 year since i was talking to them, hmm maybe freespace put em off?.

but hmm wasnt Evils doom released?? , now i am confused...maybe i only saw the demo..hmmm damn now i gotta play the demo

thanx for reminding me

7) A.C. SYS (discontinued AGA Turrican-clone)

this game is DEAD and wont be ressurected, it had a vote poll regarding if we wanted it to come or not , and
sadly not many cared about it so this WILL never come and thats for sure (was it a big loss? , check the demo)

anyway i belived that this list was about FINNISHED or almost finnished games and not early alpha stuff,
All the Team17 games that has been mentioned in this list never was over the first look (paper->computer), and about X2 (px2) which is one of the
worst games i have seen from team17, DO WE really have to talk about this crap??...
project X still roxx.

INFERNO (DID) is another game supposedly to come the same time TFX was to arrive, both was finnished but wasnt really , remeber the c.u amiga fiasco??

[lempkee]

EA and Ocean had quite a few games to be ready in 95/96/97 , but as you might remeber....it went belly up due to commodore died and all the publsihers belived AMIGA also died....

VERY SAD!!! ;((

[lempkee]

Ah i just read something here now....

GALACTIC A500 and A1200 VERSIONS did arrive , and should not be on our MISSING list , there is EVEN whd installers made for them , great games...love em

have fun!

@kennyR , as much as you and me (amiga fanatics) wants to belive
in that story or not, well i can assure you of one thing! , thats not what happened.

Tfx wasnt done,inferno wasnt done and settlers 2 was done but not RIGHTS for it (99),

Anyway people left for pc and such , why? ..well easy as no one wanted to do like i did ,
i bought a 060 when that came (first in norway) , i bought a PPC when that came (number 5 in the que)
, people on AMIGA expect EVErYTHING to run out of the box even now.

3 days ago someone heard that i was a regged moovid owner , guess what...he asked me very politely if it COULD run DIVX on a 030 AGA setup.

AMIGA OWNERS still thinks the hw is better than everything , in a way thats what i keep saying also but hmm not in that kinda way
(atleast not by CLassic).

1995 was the year when everything turned, the amiga future looked REALLY bad, games companies pulled out and stopped assigning new games/apps and only the garage stuff kept on.
in the end of 95 people told me that DOOM was still impossible to run on amiga, i started up SS and showed em DOOM and Warcraft on my amiga trough that setup and people was amazed.
just to end it like this, the ONLY reason why it all went like it did (and still are) is because of the ANTI UPGrADE + THE ANTI BUYING , its sad i know, hopefully people by now UNDERSTANDS that they have the future in their hands.


TFX was released by cu AMIGA btw
Settlers 2 was withdrawn because of porting rights etc.
Inferno never came (was finnished) ... no one wanted to upgrade their machines anyway...

sadly it seems that even now when i have a setup like i do, well i cant go higher as there aint one atm, and still the stuff runs dead slow..

good luck to all and WE ARE NOT in 95 now, its all comming back and lets be positive.

(games sold worser in 95/6 compared to 2002 (by an user count.) but that means diddly yet anyway.
