Amiga 3D Games - The Videos...
« on: December 31, 2010, 10:44:28 AM »
Runequesters recent threads about Amiga games and upgrading his miggie (nice to see someone with such an interest in his old Amiga and spending his hard earned cash on upgrading it...:)) has motivated me to play  some of my old Amiga games recently, so while I was playing some of them I though I would record them for others to see who may have forgotten about these games or haven't even seen them before... :)

Thanks for posting these. I'm getting jazzed up to get an 030 A1200 again. I just ordered one of the new ACA 1230/28 Accelerators from Amikit. I dont know if any of these will be playable with that though?. Maybe in a smaller window.

My old 030/25 played AB3D very well. Fears and Gloom will run but you have to reduce the screen size slightly.
Breathless you'd have to REALLY lower it.

Although maybe the SD RAM will give a performance boost over the old style cards.

You'll be able to play some of them for sure though.


One I keep meaning to check out is Citadel.

@ utri007

I'd forgot about some of those games myself... cheers... :)

@ A4000_Mad

With over 5000 games in my collection, I've been ploughing through them trying to remember what those games were called, I could remember what they looked like but not the names... cheers... :)

@ motorolin & spihunter

These were all done on the A1200 with a Blizzard060 @ 60mhz, they do run on my old GVP030 but at lower detail and visible window sizes... :)

(@ moto... stay away from ebay unless you got very deep pockets or are planning a bank robbery...:lol:)

I owned several of these games and I loved them, especially Genetic Species.  Could only get to level two though.  Dang Dr. FREEZE wanna-bes would kill me in seconds with the grenade launchers...
 
The reason they killed me so fast was also the reason I stoped playing FPS on my Amiga1200.  Some brainiac thought they could save $$$ if they built it so it only reconizes one key press at a time!
 
In FPS it is essential to be able to side-step while walking backwards and such.  Without these abilities, the game seems really clunky in comparison...
 
Can't wait to build up my A4000T and play these games... YES! I still own them:)

I remember that Genetic Species played pretty well on my old 28mhz/030 DKB board back in the day. I'll be curious to see how the faster memory helps things.

I mostly use Amiga for Octamed and sound stuff so a 28mhz/030 is plenty for me.
The 64mb of ram is a nice bonus.

Awesome, love it.  I'm gonna have to pull out my CD32 and throw AB-3D in now.  I haven't played the others you have, but they look sweet.  Another one of my favorites is Genetic Species, loved it!  One game I have been looking for that I used to own was Trapped 2, it was one of my favorites and if anyone has another copy (original please no "copies") I would be very happy to buy it from you.  Happy New Years all!

I dont know if this is just me not understanding, but at least in Doomattack, Im perfectly able to strafe backwards (moving diagonally backwards in effect).
