There was this site with a classified list, but probably Cammy has listed almost them all! :-)

Thanks Save2600, I've updated the list. I actually had a more complete list but I lost it and had to start again. I remember there are about ten more games not on this list, but can't remember off the top of my head what they are at the moment.

Hi,

@pyrre

Noticed you have same ppc board in your A1200 tower, noticed also that you are using Bvision board, at this time would you say that this was a correct purchase or that you should have gone with a mediator board using a 3D graphic card.

The reason I am asking is that after all I read I am going to go with the Bvision card, but wanted to get some feedback from someone who has one.

I am currently building a A1200 tower (been at it since 1999 but the feeling for building comes and goes with time, boredom, and wife complaining about them old computers) and will continue until the wife catches me again spending money. I will lower the big boom for a graphics card sometime in the future but for now trying to find the cheapest method for keyboard (thanks Red), ide with cdrom, thanks ebay for $2.00 ide convertor (still considering since I can't find key for idefix97 hate pop ups) I squeezed these two past wife, then when I strike for graphics card I want it to last awhile. My marriage depends on it. LOL.  Thats why I am asking. Anyhow will continue on with this project until wife starts yelling for the thousandth time.

MorphOS is a MAC done a little better

You can get an alphabetical list from the page I linked and compare, just like this.

@ Cammy
That is a nice list. will save it for later use.

@ Smerf
The 040 and the PPC works quite nicely. However i am struggling with the BVision. The few times it has worked it was amazing.
I have never tried mediator. Wanted the grex pci board. But there might be incompatibilities with the revision number of the ppc. Which also makes the BVision not working.
So, mediator is probably my only option. unless i can afford (and manage to find) a 060/230 ppc of a later revision. (Don't remember the exact numbers)
And of course, can find a grex.

If your ppc supports BVision.. go for it... unless you go for grex...
there is room for a mediator too.

Someone else may have exact numbers on performance. my BVision never worked long enough to measure it.

Great list Cammy,

I believe that another of my favorite Amiga games, "Stellar Conflict", which can have up to 4 players, human or computer AI, can also be played over a modem or network connection, IIRC.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)
