G4TV History Of Computers & Gaming
« on: January 04, 2005, 08:21:47 PM »
Just watching that show again, and still simply amazed how everyone in the industry, from TV shows to magazines, completely ignore the Amiga, its revolutionary, ground-breaking role in computer history, especially gaming, but also the miracle of (true-ish) multi-tasking. We all know that the Amiga was doing these, and other amazing things when the IBM and its ‘clones’ could only 'beep' and 'boop' from an amber or green screens. So my question is, ‘why is the Amiga still completely ignored’?  :-(

It only hightens my distain for what they did to ZDTV.
It now is nothing more then Madden 2005 strategy and Halo2 X-Box action. I'm afraid gaming has gone mainstream college frat boy and no.. I don't like it.
