gaidheal: u must be on drugs..., sorry but what ever u was blabbering about made absolutely no sense what so ever to me nor my amiga.

i use my amiga everyday, i dont use any pc or mac.

and i work part time as a games developer (amiga/gba/ps2) and part time out in the northsea on a oilrig.

what ever you meant , well i dont like pc for many reasons, i had one some years ago (state of the art at that time (98-2001) when i worked as an IT-ADMIn for a network on 200 machines, i got lazy , i stopped beeing interested in computers and my amiga , i saw about 300 games and all was crap compared to how games are on ps2 etc.

sure it has great apps , but what is great apps when u cant use em without having a 400 hour course in just how to open a file? , lame...

i have been on amiga since 1985 , i have followed any plattform around...and amiga is the one i have stayed on longest and the one i love the most , i do use my ps2 for games...but i do use my amiga for games also, mainly because i like oldschool and PLAYBILITY , but sure i like games on pc like Unreal tournament ....great game...but the sequel(UT 2003) is CRAP compared to the first one , gfx means diddly #### if the game aint fun..

so unscrew that position or move away, after all this is an amiga forum.. but then again it seems there is a lot of pc people around on amiga forums, ok i guess its too commercial for them to hang in pc fourms...or just plain dull..

SORRY , but u sorta set a FLAME towards me and my people... so let the show begin.

pfffffffft

mdwh2 :

do u cope fine with that so called elegant software?? amazing..why in the world does 99% of all companies have to have classes for apps all the time then? , is it because it have so many features?? ..naaah its because of everything else. , sure thats good for people who need it all..but for people who only need a few tools within 1 prog....forget it..

irrelevant or not , its an emu discussion ..sure i use UAE also for testing stuff on my amiga, but when the discussion starts to blend out in "PLEASE MAKE US SOME REAL X86 datatypes etc" thats when emulation makes no sense and thats why i told him or all to just use a real amiga.

and that about speed, thats bullshit ..ofcourse pure 68k progs can and will fly on a 3ghz pc , if they work ..., i use uae on my miggy...i will use it on my amiga1 .., but it wont be a real CLASSIC amiga anyway..

besides i havent seen many good things done by uaE or amithlon people and thats what this is all about, just take a glance in last TOTAL AMIGA issue (15) and u will get it confirmed..

if an uae user would have been like an real amiga user then they would know what to do...

anyway i still think that you guys should focus on your wonderfull pc instead of buggering around here... but that wont happen because u all just need to use AMIGA OS and its wonderfull things as your pc would be bored if not....

eh?

wasnt the plan to flame u btw....its an message to the so called uae /amithlon scene

pps: i am pretty sure we will be flowed with 1000 of questions soon...how to get OS 4 working on x86 etc....

lol ... yes ok...

i must go ask hyperion to make an uae os4 now then...

damn it seems os4 will come also...and
every lib and datatype will be x86 instead of 68k or ppc...

to the rescue....

did u know that u could actually run uae on a real amiga also? :) , or an amigaone ? ..

/flame off....

/end of discussion

/peace out

bear in mind that its not a attack on persons here, just the damn bunch who keep saying amiga is crap and in the background uses uae and amithlon till they puke because they think it rules so much..

classic amiga = CLASSIC HARDWARE , as in REAL hw.

a hw that can run all its designed to do without 1102245 config files etc.

about total amiga issue 15 :dunno, maybe u should subscribe ? :)

oh yes, the only few really constructive things i have seen been done in uae or amithlon is like a handfull... stuff like Total amiga , is designed on amithlon. (because his hw died)
Artkanoid was made in amithlon or uae...etc
anyway if u find it hard to send an email asking what they made it on, then its yer prob...but i like to send meails to people who make stuff and tell em if i like it or not...etc.

quote 3.
If we do, it'd be a sign of the popularity of OS4. But, perhaps OS4 should be cancelled, to save these forums being overrun with such questions.

yes lol..., i think we must...



done with this thread for now....
nothing real will ever come out of it anyway.

LOL LOL LOL


---> yes indeed...LOL

Drugs? I think we know which one of us was on drugs... but by way of a reasoned address to each.. err.. can I call them points?

---> well it went over the head and into the toilet really :) (i blew up...easy as that)
(bad day i guess...for me)


No blabbering it was pretty plain, though possibly over your head, I'll try and keep it simple for you this time.

--> hehe

You don't use PC or Mac, therefore we can safely assume you know bugger all about them, right? :¬)

--> well i know pLENTY , dont know what the it-admin's does in your country , but here we have to keep up with everything.

Sure you are a part-time games developer.. actually given the quality of most PS games, you probably are.. I take the insinuation back.

--> dont know what u meant here bu...

400 hours to open a file? And you want me to believe you can develop software for games companies in your spare time.. wait we covered that didn't we? PS games.. I keep forgetting.. I agree though, very 'lame'.

--> and here again, this was an example of how it all turns out in the end of the users who ACTUALLY uses this #### at work ( due to the age of people, how they use it etc..., i wasnt talking about me...)
(it was an general view, and a very REAL one)

Everyone likes PLAYBILITY(sic!) that would be why Civ3 is one of the better selling PC games, for example. On the other hand.. the Amiga ceased to be a serious games platform by about 1995. Sorry. If you like your old games, great! I do too, Hired Guns WAS better on the Amiga than on the PC.. Frontier: Elite II was not. Graphics means even less when they are crap anyway, as they HAVE to be on the "legacy" Amigas. This is a simple reality of hardware evolution, get over it. Incidentally, projects like AROS are your best hope of ever regaining those "Glory Days" in any meaningfully "Amiga" way.

--> ermmm , ok civ 3 is a good game , thats one of the few...the sims was kinda ok, but its over used and gets tedious within a few hours, but thats because i am old... maybe :) (played my head of on theme park 1 and 2 , theme hospital etc..)  anyway... civ3 is nice indeed, hired guns is great (looking 4ward to hired guns 2)  , elite 1 and 2 is superb games , on any plattform i guess, as gfx doesnt matter really... sure its nice if they actually move etc...but i think u know what i mean...

and about your comment "commercial" well i think u dont get what i mean, but then again thats why we argue here anyway, mainstream etc..., also i dont use my ps2 for everything..i only use that for games..., making #### for a console doesnt mean u use it....now does it? ...
but ofcourse i play games on xbox/ps2/gamecube etc, but the pc..., nope not unless its a hysterical good one.
(and that aint many if u compare em with the amount released)


^ and my system still floors it:

AMD Athlon XP 2400+
1024Gb DDR 400 RAM
40Gb ATA133 7200rpm HDD
16x DVD-ROM
52x24x52 CD-R/W
nVidia GeForce FX 5600
Gigabyte K7 Triton GA-7NNXP m/b
AOC 17" LCD monitor

So much for "x86 suxx..." oh yeah.. I can feel it sucking me in.... hellllllpppppp..... ;¬)


this floor it??? LOL! , yes by your terms maybe!
yes yes... i could have had such an machine as u also but i wouldnt have used it for what its worth or the mzh etc... why?  , same reason why i dont use my amigaone atm...doesnt have amigaos on it , except for a UAE way..

sure when os4 is out i will use my amigaone everyday , but i wont mess around with classic stuff then....thats what i have my CLASSIC machine for, and no config files etc just to run a game/demo...code or what so ever..

good luck with your "floor" hardware , in 2 months it will be worth 1/10 of what its now...
and u will upgrade and think u are the king of the hill again..., but all u do is play civ3 and use UAE ...yey... really does show what a beast that pc is... ...

the end

It's not a PC vs Amiga fight.. that was settled ten years ago, pretty clear which platform won too.


what??? someone won?? , well if someone won then it must have been pretty unoficial ..
what did they win?
where was the compo addressed?
what was the compo about?

if there is 1 compo it won...it must have been the "first one to put a turbo on a lada wins"

you are soooooo out there...

also if you think metroid prime on gc is so cool, then u should go play it instead of sitting here :)  , btw metroid prime on gba is better..
on playbility terms..  , myeself...i will go play HULK for ps2 , as i just bought it today...

the consoles have ALWAYS been the place for games , amiga was a good contender but nintendo and sega always got the long run , but it was first when psx came i started to like consoles....

anyway thats tASTE nothing less , and if you dont know jackshit about amiga and what it is and how its operating (which i doubt u do since u slag it off like u do....bear in mind that its not over yet..x86 and windows had to go up against 2000 before it could barely use what the amiga had/have (bad in 94+) , also remeber that hw for amiga is still beiiing developed so yet again u shouldnt say 10 years etc..

as a last note...i was planning on looking into aros and its dev for a while...i am glad i didnt as u turned me totally OFF ... (that applies for all of us in the team)
