What was the first software when you went PC or Mac?
« on: May 02, 2010, 01:16:40 AM »
Hi I'm wondering what software was giving you platform envy. So much so your Amiga got knocked off the winners podium and replaced with a PC or Mac. What titles/applications did you rush out and purchase?

I got Mechwarrior 2 and Need for Speed, they helped take my mind off the Amiga. I also downloaded Melody Assistant a nice Deluxe Music replacement. I also discovered WinUAE a little while after, when it was quite buggy.

@above
The 386 was slightly superior in performance to 68030. The other advantage of the intel chips was that they could clock a lot higher. Having a 20Mhz processor instead of a 7mhz processor made a lot of difference in those days. The Amiga's  superiority was in arcade style games.
