Turrican, Turrican and Turrican!

I just had a Turrican week, playing all three of them on Amiga and I recorded them as long plays just in case if anyone might want to check them out.

I´m not very good at them but that works out perfectly as the games then seem to provide just the correct level of challenge to me so it was actually quite exciting and full of emotions going through these instead of just being something like routine 1up collection.

see post # 8 for additional playthrough videos of other games

Absolutely no trainer, no software cheats used.

But I have a joystick which has an autofire and I like to use it instead of mashing buttons.

Here, let me show you!

You may or may not think of that as a hardware cheat

Also, you may notice that the videos jump forward by a second or so every once in a while. That is because my camera makes huge files but splits videos in 1.80GB files. Once a file runs to its maximum size, it stops recording, makes a new file and starts recording again, or so it seems. This results in some footage lost in the between. I can´t help this unfortunately without either getting another camera or reducing the quality. You´ll just have my word then that no save states were used (nor do I think such a way of cheating would be possible either on real amiga)
