G'day from Newcastle Australia

G'day all!

Just found this fabulous site in my crazed search for Amiga related games.
I was raised on C64 and Amiga but sadly sold my Amiga many, many years ago...
What was I thinking!?

Anyhow,
happy gaming!

Bump

Hi, Bump, and welcome to EAB!

It's good to know you think we've got a fabulous site here, and I'm sure you'll soon find the members here are just as good (if not better!).

Hiya guys 'n thanks for the warm welcome.

I will endeavour to make amends for my past transgression to Amiga. As such I promise to try to emulate all the abandonware Amiga and C64 games from my past that I can get my hands on. (As well as talk about how awesome Amigas were for their time)

Defender of the Crown, Speedball, Monkey Island, Lemmings, Settlers, Space Crusade, International Karate+, Barbarian, Knight Games, Hack, Dogfight, Bubble Bobble, Pirates, TSI games to name a few from memory...

Oh I missed you all so much.

What if I were to say yes?

Would you try and shoot him with an elephant gun?

If so, yes it is Duke

T-Rex is a type of dinosaur, and Duke is an EAB member. They aren't really related, I was being silly.

Anyway, hi Bump, welcome.

Why the name Bump by the way?

I know it's a dinosaur I just assumed they were both names for EAB members?

Well I'll tell you It's one of these reasons:
• I like to play pinball machines and bump the play field a lot.
• I am extremely prone to injuries (Like Mr Bump of the Mr Men series)
• I am a hired assassin and bump people off for mates rates.

ah... I can see I've found a good place :P
