Games not released!!

I have been scouring CU AMiga (not sure what month cuz the bloody cover is gone )

Anyway it mentions the following games in its BUZZ section:

Edward Randy: A conversion of the Data East coin-op, Elite was handling the conversion

Winning Run 2: A Conversion of a Namco Coin-op, again handled by Elite

Gloop: A sub aqua platform game
Dino Ball: Speedball with cavemen
Monkey Business: A platform game inspired by Toki

These three games were being developed by Images

Drop Soldier: This is mentioned in HOL, here is some more info, I'll quote CUAmiga directly

Quote:
The Drop Soldier can go it alone on a mission or command a platoon, issuing orders and planning the attacks. Up to sixteen Amigas can be linked together via modem or RS232, so 'the lads' can go kick ass as a team.

Missions range from delivering objects to destroying enemy bases. Drop Soldiers come equipped with power suits which enable them to jump and run faster than conventional squaddies. Loads of extra weapons will also play a major part in the game."

Hmm..."Winning Run" does tell me something
This was the name of a tune in Super Hang-On, which is a coin-op too! So it could be a planned sequel to SHO. Only guessing, though...

I'm not sure if Namco produced a Winning Run 2 coin-op arcade machine - there was Winning Run (1989) followed up by Winning Run 91 (1991, funnily enough…).

Both were 3D polygon F1 type racing games, so the conversions would have been fairly challenging, to say the least.

There's some interesting background informatiopn about Drop Soldier in Richard Hewison's review of Gravity (set in the same game universe) on the Amiga Games Database.
