Blood money is still one of the best games ever.

Right next to the best game of all time. The very best game ever known to mankind in the arcade and in the home....

Supercars, I can still remember the amazing feeling of hearing the theme in stereo for the first time on my Amiga.

Also Lotus series, Stunt Car Racer, Rick Dangerous.

I liked Defender of the Crown. All of those Cinemaware titles were amazing at the time, graphically.

My first Amiga 500 game was a flight simulator: Falcon 4. I think I mostly played the Space Quest, Police Quest and Kings Quest series after that.

I love my Amiga but I've never used it in so long..... Its in the attic

So many games I used to play when I was young, don't remember names but one batman game was fun. also there was a badass dracula game but it was kind of hard

My favorite was a Monty Python game where you throw fish as your weapon :thumbsup:

Google WinUAE - play all your old Amiga games at full speed on your PC! :D
You can even use a USB PS2-style controller, and run fullscreen. It's great :heart:

sigh...I loved my Amiga 500's. I even had the GVP 10MB hard drive and the 286 emulator card to go with it. The emulator didn't really work that well though. I'd still use my Amiga if my 1084s wasn't broken. Do any of you remember doing the Chip RAM mod where you cut a trace on the motherboard (I think near the Fat Agnus chip) and resoldered another to get 1MB of Chip RAM. Man that was waaay before these youngin's and their silly overclocking fad. I had my 500 pimpin though, there was another RAM card where you could get 4MB of RAM by adding a daughterboard into the Gary chip's socket. I could only afford to get 1.5 MB of RAM in mine though.
I had a few games, Defender of the Crown, Shadow of the Beast I & II, Test Drive II ("Accolade presents...vrooom vrooom") and few more I can't remember. I should go dig out my old games from my parents attic.

Back in the day, it wasn't Intel vs. AMD or ATI vs. nVidia...naw it was Amiga vs. the Apple IIgs and no one even thought to compare either of those against the pathetic IBM PCs of the day. "Oh yeah, like your 4bit CGA can compare to 4096 HAM mode on the Amiga...phsssh"

The Amiga 3000 was THE machine to get. Unfortunately I had spent a ton of money on my two 500's and the RAM upgrades, HD hards, etc. If I had saved it, I could have afforded a 3000 by the time I was through. But I wouldn't give up those memories for anything.

It was a sad sad day when I realized the Amiga was done for and that PC's were the way to go. No way could I have gone to a Mac. Apple was the enemy back then for some reason, although today I'd seriously consider a powerbook....
