I hate almost all games based on movies. Ocean was responsible for most of them on Amiga.

Yes, Ocean was responsible for many licenses, but some based-movies games were very good.

Every piece of crap published by US Gold & developed by Tiertex (Human Killing Machine...), Probe (Tiger Road...), etc., Paradox Software (Luxor...), Kingsoft also published a lot of turds too & of course Team 17 which games were looking good but had below average gameplay.

Most of the other titles were average too.

I really wanted Outrun to be good but it was a great steaming pile of jobbies.
Interestingly, Probe outsourced both these 2 Amiga titles (1943 and Outrun) to ICE! So they were not developed by Probe at all.

Ironic then that the Amiga version was the closest to the arcade version over the console versions.

I still like graphics and sounds, only gameplay may not be the best. Luxor was commercial release from Software Horizons.

Rebellion software, but the post Amiga rebellion. They sure make some exquisite stinkers and then occasionally a good game. There is no middle ground with these guys.

I'll agree with what Galahad said many moons ago on the start of this thread:

Tiertex.

What I find really amazing is that Tiertex managed to stay alive for many years, and at least a couple of years ago was still active making cell phone games.

They never made one single decent for any system, and their amiga games are really, really, really awful. All Capcom ports on Amiga were really bad except the ones produced by Elite, but from all the US Gold ports, Tiertex surely were the guys who made the worse job, by far. Their games are crap even for Atari ST standards, let alone Amiga standards.


Pit Fighter was awful even on arcade, and I'll agree with Galahad again: The Amiga version is the closest to the arcade one. The controls could been better even using just 1 button (The arcade game uses 3), but compare it to the Mega-Drive or SNES version (I won't even mention 8 bits versions), and you see the Amiga Version has, by far, the best graphics, the best music, the best SFX and it's the one that plays more close to the arcade game. Which plays like shit anyway.

Also, Teque made Brutal Sports Football, which is frigging awesome.

Yup, I'm with these two kittens as well.
There is a place in hell reserved to Tiertex, and it is right next to the US Gold one.

At least Probe had Alien 3, Mortal Kombat 1, 2 and T2 Arcade to their name so in the latter years were getting decent games produced, Tiertex were just shocking from start to finish!

Bionic Commando was excellent though. Both Capcom and published by US Gold iirc.
