*Very cool feature.*

Saving to RAM disk in Hired guns.
Also the sound when you fire and hit something metallic.

[AmigaHope]

The serial-linkup feature of Armour Geddon. One player would be the "pilot" and move the vehicles around, the other would be the "commander" and manage the base and watch the map to give the pilot instructions, and *occasionally* taking out a second vehicle. This made the game not only more playable and fun, but substantially easier since base management didn't get neglected during operations.

This game *really* needs an online multiplayer remake.

The creature in Exile that you can send to fetch stuff in tight places, acts as a decoy, and bumps stuff Fnik?

[mantakno]

well because i did c64 first back then i was more selective on my amiga and was more tactical player there and lesser platform gamer.

so wings of fury , in the platform area that was neat.
impossible mission also a first choise

rest is
millinium and deuteros
M.P.S.M. = multi player soccer manager
Kennedy Approach

sorry list is short, to many games and all/most was catch up at pc, later most games could be run there aswell, settlers and so on.


still love powermonger , and other odd no release on diffrent playform

I will never forget a scene when our hero in Monkey Island 2 catches a dog under his coat with a simple handle.

Interesting... can you demonstrate this, or even upload a hacked copy?

Same. I'd never seen anything play quite like it, before it's release.
(Nor anything else match the fun factor, after)


I played a coverdisk demo for months before Christmas came and I got to play the full version!


I eventually got the SNES version, and was sorely disappointed with how huge the sprites were, and how little of the playfield you could see.


I still hate Soccer, and still play the odd round of Sensible to this day

[Gardhul]

The parallax and colors in Lionheart!

[dreadnought]

That programmable computer implant you had in B.A.T. This game really is something else.

[Muerto]

Turrican 2: When you complete the game, and the "end music" comes on, that sweet 7 voice TMFX was sooooo cool - I even had it as an alarm tune once

Twin World: Completing the game and read the prologue was such a satisfaction, did that many times..

Lemmings: When you hit the terminate all button, and the "Oh NO!" sfx was played.... spend hours setting up different scenarios just to blow the poor guys up

SOTB: When the main theme starts playing...... goosebumps!

*Extra*
Not a game, but listen to "GuitarSlinger" over and over again, just because it was such an awsome .mod!

Yup, sooooo eerie and mesmerising... I never get bored of listening to it

[Muerto]

Just sitting listening to old amiga music, SOTB2 main tune has a mystical vibe as well, was never good at the game though, so I always used the cheat, and not once was I successful to kill the enemy at the bottom of the pit, before he released the "lion" and fly off.... maybe this qualifies as the most annoying (repeating) moment in Amiga gaming

[Predseda]

Rotator controllable replay feature. Superunique on Amiga!

[Predseda]

Map replay in Populous 2 after you completed a level.

For me:

Lots of titles had this but the manual was a key thing for me. Having a back story and then continuing it in game. I'm thinking games like Manhunter New York, Legends of Valor, Dungeon Master, Lords of Midnight, Doomdarks Revenge, etc. all which made it so atmospheric before you'd even started the game. It added to the imagination as well so if the graphics weren't the best then you could still visualise it and it made it so much better.

Also liked Dungeon Master - ability to bring people back alive.
Bloodwych the ability to have two people playing it at once and having to work co-cooperatively. Being able to talk to NPCs, being able to trade with them, so many good things in this game.

I'm sure I'll think of more.

Oh yeah! The included novellas! I think the best ones were in Hired Guns and Xenomorph.
