Amiga Hall of Fame 1996 Nominations
Amiga Hall of Fame 1996 Nominations. I haven’t don’t a hall of fame post in almost a year, lots has happened to keep me busy but now I have time to start these up again. For those people who are new to EAB I have put together a list of previous winners;
Previous Winners: 85/86: Defender of the Crown 87: Arkanoid 88: IK+ 89: Elite 1980’s Winner was: IK+ (just a bit of fun that poll) 90: Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe 91: Turrican II 92: Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge 93: Cannon Fodder 94: Sensible World of Soccer 95: Worms! Again please be nice and keep you nominations to a MAXIMUM of 10 per person, although I don’t think many people will find that many to nominate. You can do an advanced search on HOL for games released in 1996 if you need a list or use the link below. HOL 1996 BEWARE, re-releases and aga/cd32 versions of older games do not count as new games for 1996 and are therefore not eligible for entry. Unless they have been both altered by a large amount and you can convince the rest of us to allow it in. Therefore SWOS 95/96 would not be considered a new game. I’ll let this run about a week or until it looks like it done, then I’ll create the poll for the vote. So off you go… |
Oh dear god, the Amiga really was dying in 1996!
Is the time difference in Canada one year? Or you been that lazy you fat f*ck! Gotta be Slam Tilt, with honourable mention to Breed 96 (Shareware) Watchtower XP8 I can see Slam Tilt running away with this to be honest |
Fightin' Spirit
Slam Tilt |
1996 brought for me two games I really, really like:
Minskies Furballs and Slam Tilt. |
Slam Tilt
|
Slam Tilt
Mega Typhoon Chaos Engine 2 |
What an awful year for Amiga games eh? Other than Slam Tilt though there's:
Xtreme Racing Fighting Spirit Black Viper Pinball Prelude (with apologies to KG) :) |
1996 only 150 entries on HOL :(
So here we are choosing a game that defines the amiga in 1996...
well there are several areas to consider so I have choosen a couple and I hope to explain my thoughts on this... first up is Shareware Freeware Honourables for 1996! Aerial Racers Battle Craft Breed 96 out of these I felt that Battle craft really captured something in 96, what with blizzards warcraft and starcraft this seemed to have that same something. Commercial releases The Chaos Engine 2 Slam Tilt SuperStreetFighter 2 Turbo From here I reason out a game that pushes the limmits with gameplay / graphics and playability and in this one it has to be SlamTilt! If only they had released it! Evils Doom Its one I would most certainly owned, bringing back the dungeon crawler with slick AGA graphics blended with real speach and cd atmospheric music... mmm if only.... Worst Game Contenders for 1996 Pinball Prelude funny.... i couldn`t find another contender... well atleast pinball prelude one something by default.... so here it is... for 1996 the game that defines the Amiga Slam Tilt |

by the way, when do you think your site will be operational ? in a year or so ?:laughing and yes from what i have listened to, it's better to consider that oasis no longer exists |
Freaky lives in Canada, he moved there very recently :) And it's been a year since he posted his last poll so I figured it must be something to do with the time difference :D
And it's not my fault my site isn't 'fully operational' (stops emperor style voice), it's the server's fault. The files are there, it's just nobody can download more than 20mb of a pack because of shitty cgi timeouts. As soon as it's fixed I'll click one button and BOOM! |
oh my what a great year. I can't decide which 10 to chose. Damn I wish I could say them all..
... ... ... oh we do talk Sega Saturn dont we...... Playstation?????..... oh amiga :shocked :confused okey here they come. My nomination for Hall of Fame 1996 Chaos Engine 2, The Exile Discovery Disk Sensible World Of Moon Soccer Timekeepers Expansion Disk Hall of Shame Brian Lara's Cricket 96 Capital Punishment City Cars Kang Fu Kick Off 96 Pinball Prelude Super Street Fighter II Turbo Valhalla & The Fortress Of Eve XTreme Racing 2.0 |
Do data disks count in these polls freaky?
|
no but as many of the games from 96 is datadisc (or updated version of older games) I guess the list will be very very short if we dont put them on the list ;) :laughing
|
Is it worth even doing the poll! Slam Tilt is going to win easily :)
I can't wait for 1997... :crazy |
