Which NEWER Amiga game is the best ?

RetroMan · 10 October 2001, 10:07

Well, I consider this Poll fitting best in Amiga Scene, cause it isn´t Nostalgic or Retro

If any Mod think, it belongs anywhere else, MOVE IT

This is about the best NEWER Amiga game. Me personally got an A1200 with 50 Mhz. so I cannot test e.g. Heretic II but I bought NAPALM, PAYBACK and other stuff ...... btw. I voted for NAPALM (top) but PAYBACK is near behind it .....

Yep. I voted Napalm too. That game is fantastic
Payback I didn't like much. It just wasn't fun
Bubble Heroes I felt like voting for because it's simple and very playable
Heretic 2 I can't run, but I hate the game anyway

XoreX · 10 October 2001, 10:29

I voted for Napalm also. Actually its the only game I played (and even this was the demo).
Do they all run under uae?

10 October 2001, 10:40

Heretic 2 is unlikely to work under WinUAE
Nightlong will work under WinUAE if you have the right version (not the PPC version)

The rest should be fine, although I don't own them all so I don't know

XoreX · 10 October 2001, 10:57

I have Napalm but I think some of the lzx files are corrupt so I never could installed properly and run the game.

How about Foundation? Its also new. Is it a good game?

Kodoichi · 10 October 2001, 10:58

There are newer Amiga games?

Edit: Spelling, better now Amigaboy? BTW, check the smiley...

You're obviously using a pirated version Xorex. If you bought the game like a good little boy, the files would be fine

. But I'm not here to criticise, so I'll shut my mouth now

I don't like Foundation much. If you were into Settlers, then I guess you'd like it

Samurai: There's new Amiga games!??!

XoreX · 10 October 2001, 11:06

Check this link or this one .

There are lots of newer games I newer heard of also. Virtual Ball Fighters looks great. Would also like to try Tales From Heaven...

RetroMan · 10 October 2001, 11:08

@s4murai

hmm, yep, get back to school

@XoreX

Well, ok Foundation is kinda "new", it´s a mixture out of SETTLERS and AGE OF EMPIRE, think that fits best to describe it

btw. all of the games listed above run on WinUAE (sometimes with little tricks) except Heretic II as it needs a PPC Processor

Anyway, to get Payback to work in WinUAE you must set up a HDF image, it will crash if you have your harddrive files installed as a Dir on a Fat Partition ....

10 October 2001, 11:14

Virtual Ball Fighters is very unfun if you ask me
Tales Of Heaven would've been cool, but it's pretty slow on my 030.

XoreX · 10 October 2001, 11:15

About Napalm; I dont know if this is full or demo or what kind of version since it wont work... But anyway, I saw this one and many others on few ftps (I think all know where...)

10 October 2001, 11:31

personnaly have a 1200 PPC and heretic II works very fine...
Wipe out 2097 also was the first PPC game and is very fun !!

10 October 2001, 11:37

oh yeah. Wipeout 2097 rocks

Amiga1992 · 10 October 2001, 20:38

I never played any of tehse but my vote goes to Wipeout. Why? Because..

I LOVE my Designers Republic!

If someone would post a screenshot of the Amiga version of Wipeout 2097, I would be most grateful

Wow! Is that really Wipeout 2097 running on an Amiga? At how many frames per second does this game run?

Generally, I have never seen these next-gen games in real life. I only know them from static screenshots from various magazines.
I know Tales from Heaven, a Mario 64 wannabee, from the last issue of Amiga Format. It did not look that great but any new Amiga game is welcome these days.

RetroMan · 12 October 2001, 08:50

Yep, Wipeout 2097 on Amiga looks really kewl, but you got to have a DAMN fast PPC CPU to play it

Anyway, there are more newer titles I forgot like Hell Squad for example which also runs on lower spec Amigas and is a really kewl Action Adventure .....
