To hell with it.
« on: February 09, 2011, 04:46:44 AM »
I realize I have been contributing to this mess myself, so I am going to withdraw from the CUSA gibbering and leave it alone.

I post on amiga.org for stuff regarding my classic miggy and the use thereof. I gave up on the next gen stuff as the red vs blue stuff is obnoxious, and AROS seems to insist on not working on my PC. I'll keep checking it every so often, and hopefully some day, it'll work :)
Life without the drama is life better enjoyed.

Nothing good is coming out of the CUSA threads. If they end up shipping a product, we'll see then. For now, I am unsubscribing the threads and I am out.


As a few people have said they enjoy the threads I start, I'll get back to some classic amiga stuff tomorrow. Not sure if it'll be games or something else.

Ya, but you got to admit, it's been some great pointless fun! :)

I had an idea to do a thread talking about the amiga FPS games since they fascinate me. I know you did videos recently, so I figured some text comparisons might be interesting.

We'll see. I've been playing Testament 2 a lot lately :)

I'm burned out on it too. The obvious, both good and bad, has been pointed out time and time again through the medium of comedy, and sadly some straight up serious hate, so I think the best option is to cancel the show all together before ratings begin to plummet.


Besides, I need to spend time at home learning how to get the Monkey Island Talkie code implemented into the ScummVM source.

Testament 2. I've been meaning to get to those for so long, but currently I'm playing through Ultima VII on MorphOS.

Testament is very much a wolfenstein clone, but once you play it a bit, its really fun, and it runs super smooth even in full screen on my 030/50.

The second one is also bloody endless it seems. Im pretty sure Im 20 levels in, and no end in sight

Anything that'll brighten the place up a wee bit and let me get back my old cheerful self again would be most welcomed, kinda bored with all the arguing and the nonsense here lately (although some of it was fun) and it would be nice to get back to some interesting but funny nonsense stuff again... :)

I remember Testament playing super smooth on my 1200 back in the day. I loved it, but never completed it as I wasn't as good at FPS as I am now a days.

 I really wish I could find a copy of Citadel that would work with my 1200. Seems like every processor I've thrown at it fails.

Where is the company called SpeccyUSA? We could flood the threads with news about them.

I can never get the HD install to actually...well...install.

The other one I'd love to play is Project Intercalaris but my Polish is not so much.

I guess Im a sucker for these games. I didn't even think Fears was all that bad :)
