oo is this still going. can i also put in a vote for Turrican II because that is absolutely one of my favourite games on the Amiga (i just didn't think of it being on one disk because of *ahem* a reason). Frontier also still stands..
unpopular opinion though (?) all games should fit on a single disk unless they've got a damn good excuse! Zool was such a pain having to swap disks between the title screen and actually playing it iirc (and took ages to load generally) |

I had Turrican II on one disk and it was an original, not a copy

What did the budget Turrican 2 lose from only being on one disk?
My top 10, in alphabetical order: Battle Squadron Jimmy White's Whirlwind Snooker Lotus 1 Lotus 2 Populous 2 (late for such a 'serious' game to be on one disk, though I guess its just Populous 1 with a few tweaks) Rainbow Islands Robocod Rod-Land Speedball 2 SWIV If you count games which can be played from a single disk if you skip the intro, The Settlers is probably my favourite of all these though |

All Turrican 2 originals came on one disk. Only the... backup copies came on two disks because the original disk had a lot more data than 880k on it (Denis can explain this way better ).

Frontier Elite 2 for sure. By far. One disk, no loading times and you can take a journey on a whole Galaxy in a almost perfectly designed game.

Speedbump gimme goosebump

I must be blind, can't seem to find any entry for this one on HoL. For me, it ought to be Speedball II, Bard's Tale I as a close second. Only one vote for Carrier Command ? Gee, that ain't much.
As a side note, I am not certain each and every game mentioned in this post should be taken into consideration. Seems rather random choices to me. Yogi's Great Escape, ahem, yeah sure ! Last edited by SquawkBox; 23 November 2022 at 21:11. |

you know I'm getting old and forgetful what I was not mistaken about is that Ghost battle is the best 1-disc game, or at least the one with the most graphics and data a game that requires many many skills to play it btw the problem is that nobody cracked it in only 1 disk as it comes originally ,so basically if you do not have the original or you have a kyroflux device to write the original ips file to a floppy: you can't enjoy this game in 1 disk in a real Amiga |
