Is this true? I have been interested in an actual complete Amiga version of this video game title, for a long time. |

I see so you are playing me. I wonder if this is because you knew I would bite on that bait? You knew I posted a thread about an Amiga version of Resident Evil last year.
So that is not fair play Dunny!! |

And this is exactly what Generation Amiga does too. Click-bait...

I do care because it is actually hurting our business. I don't see point of catching people interest if they get disappointed later. Taking 2 minutes to discuss with related people before posting news would have several benefits :
I'm still open to discuss with GenerationAmiga in the future to help them improve Vampire related news. They could do some much more and better... |

As a side note on your comment, I would be please to know how much "new" people have been brought to the Amiga scene these last ten years. By "new" I mean, not having a dad or mom that played back in time (indirectly promoting the computer by saying how fun/nice/etc. it was). "New" one that discovered this computer just like this or by reading something in a newspaper or in the net... Maybe worth to open a thread?... |

Dunny did exactly what GA does and you celebrate. Doesn't feel so great when you're on the receiving end of such tactics, does it? Quote:

OK, so I can accept that you all had a good laugh at my expense, so Dunny is a clever Fuck*r for remembering, that I did a thread on an Amiga version of Resident Evil. As much as I do not want to admit it, yes Akira it isn't nice. But... @Dunny, I wasn't mad at your intuition, rather you made me look a complete Twat, trying to defend Generation Amiga! I am beginning to think that maybe I am the only one on EAB, who actually doesn't hate Generation Amiga. |

Hate is not the word I would use, believing they are doing something wrong rather.

Although, when it comes to products and/or how they function, I believe it's only right that Generation Amiga contact the designers, for further information. I must admit though, I feel somewhat out numbered in this debate! |

The own website responding to the debate here by shitposting (and then deleting) an article titled "Generation Amiga is a populist Amiga magazine" just denotes how much lying and faking has been normalized to the point that a lot of people deem it a valid attitude. Lying and cheating is OK! As long as you get what you want! DESPICABLE. By the way, hot news straight from 1993: Amiga has left the "race" in the 90s. |

Seriously though, your enthusiasm for the Amiga is on the one hand endearing, but your belief in the impossible and the improbable in service of that enthusiasm is cringe-worthy at best. Nobody takes a fundamentalist seriously except for other fundies - the way to get support and spread the love for the Amiga is by researching the machine (you really need to learn what it's capable of and more importantly what it is not) and presenting levelled and cool-headed discourse that people want to engage in. As it is, your pattern is: 1. Post 2. Defend the post from ridicule 3. Rinse 4. Repeat And nobody ever engages you, they just take the p*ss. The Resident Evil thing was a case in point. Rather than ask "Would it be feasible to port Resi over to the Amiga, and what would we need to sacrifice (if anything) to get that done?" you start off with "The Amiga could run Resident Evil if someone is willing to code it, who's man enough to get this done?" and then start having to defend yourself when people point out that it's really not possible without huge compromises. And even then, you don't take what the experts say on board, you just dig yourself deeper into those holes. |

I fail to understand how I was making myself look like Tw*t, by simply defending an Amiga related website? So I was seemingly going against all the Amiga community rules of engagement, by talking about keeping Amiga in the race, using certain tactics. I am quite capable of understanding what the Amiga can and cannot do. The question would still be the same as I know the Amiga is capable of a Resident Evil port. They did loads of vector and 3D rotation graphics in the Demo scene, that looked no different to what was seen in RE. Slight modification and removal of certain redundant graphics and the port is possible. @Akira, you never point out the good that I post, only the bad. So much so that you even shorten it to suit your point. I do not think this is fair You manipulate what I post. Yet I have always mentioned how you can be right at times and agreed with things you post. You have NEVER done this for me. Before you say it, yes there have been many times you could of done so, yet never did! Are you still mad at me over the Scream tracker incident? This is not good practice to pick at peoples views and make that person out to be the one, always in the wrong. At the same time trying to make out that maybe they know nothing. No-one person knows everything about Amiga, some know more than others but this doesn't mean people, cannot have their say. If Generation Amiga is to improve its content then so be it. I would admire them for making that effort, yet still like their contribution all the same. I would not dislike them, and/or make them out to be senseless idiots that know nothing of their chosen subject, just by doing it their way. I find it so funny that people always assume they know who they are talking to, just by reading what that said person is posting. No-one knows anything by using that tactic. We know each other only by our alias most of the time. Yet in reality, the intricate detail remains secret! 113971 what is so unique about this number? First to answer really does see the bigger picture. |
