50 Euros? What a rip-off. It's 4.99 on Steam for the peecee.

You're right 50 Euros is a total rip-off, and then you'd also need a SAM or other New-Gen Amiga OS4 hardware, as there's no option to run it on a lower spec Classic PPC carded Amiga, or even a version to run it on MorphOS. It's also an old game anyway, that's way past its sell-by-date, and doesn't seem to be even as good as many of the converted PC games, starting with Return to Castle Wolfenstein or even one of the Star Wars Jedi Knight series or even Arx Libertatis (Fatalis).

Is 50 euros for a great game, a shirt, a poster and other extras a rip-off?  Do you cry when you poop too?

The game costs 34.95 euros and thats a great price for a commercial game for amiga in 2015.

I don't either see the price as a problem considering how much work that has to be done for such low sales. If you think Steam has the best price, then go ahead and use a computer that has Steam.

It's not Hyperions duty to make miracles.

Oh well... At least they released it. Price is OK if based on the actual development time + market size... People can buy old games for hundreds of euros/dollars on Ebay sometimes, which doesn't make much sense either.

I remember spending some good time with this game... At the end of the 90s ! I was in high school back then... Reviews were average, though.

lets hope they release SiN as well.   I enjoyed playing heretic and Shogo.
Maybe give them more reason to port newer games over.

They no longer have the license for SiN.
This is just like television, only you can see much further.
