I own two 1200's and two 600's so I've never really had a need to run classic games or demos on my MorphOS machine, but I can tell you this.
What ever software hits the Paula or AGA/ECS chipset directly will not work natively, at least without using UAE.
Now with UAE you should be able to play about all games without a hitch, not to mention all demos, unless they require more processing speed such as a 50Mhz 030 or higher, in which case they will not run because the PPC variants of UAE do not have JIT support....
YET, but that is supposed to be on the way in which case those higher end games and demos would then in theory work as well.
On a side note, you will find that some of the old PPC RTG games work fine with MorphOS without the need of UAE, likewise pretty much all Apps that do not depend upon the Amiga's classic Chip set will run just fine (and VERY VERY fast) without UAE as well.
Further more there are a TON of ports and native apps/games written specifically for MorphOS and I'm sure you'll find them addictive!
Hi all,
Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I want to buy a Powerbook to run MorphOS, but before convincing myself, I wanted to know how compatible (if at all) that MorphOS can run all the Amiga demos (old and new), and it would be a bonus if it can run some of the games as well.
Thanks in advance.
