One Amiga game and a desert island... - Page 6

Peter · 24 June 2007, 23:54

Ok, I will take...

1. Sensible Soccer Int.Ed (Life without Football of some sort wouldn't be worth it)

2. Cannon fodder (The thought of never playing it again would drive me mad)

3. Chaos Engine (I Still havent finished it)

4. Flashback (I can admire the backdrops in the game when the natural beauty of the Island becomes a bore)

5. Pinball Illusions (I like this more than Slamtilt and Slamtilt is one of my favourite games..!?)

6. Speedball II (I need to practice this before I leave for the Island as I am still Sh*t at it - but I love it.)

7. Super Skidmarks (Split Screen Wheelchair racing - PS3 my ar*e)

8. Syndicate (Something for the Evenings)

Of course, if I ever find "Scavenge" again - the long lost PD game, I would have to take that, however that is a two player game only so perhaps one of the native women of the Island would be able to help out...

I better take my Tower project as well which seems to be taking me ages...
Hard Drives over 4 GIG are a Bast**d to set up...

1- Swos.. best footy game ever full stop!
2- Frontier Elite2 - way ahead of its time!
3- Skidmarks 1 i love the way you could edit the tracks
4- Speedball 2
5- Dizzy collection
6- Deluxe galaga
7- desert strike
8- civilisation
they would see me through even the most difficult times !

Could you really? How? I never knew that...

dug26 · 25 June 2007, 00:47

its real easy all you had to do was import the tracks into deluxe paint (havent done it for about 10 years so a wee bit rusty) i will have a play around and get back to you.. it was only possible to edit the cosmetics if i remember right there was a tutorial on an amiga format magazine!

Graham Humphrey · 25 June 2007, 09:24

Okay, thanks

BippyM · 25 June 2007, 09:37

I'd take 7 games and a solar powered battery kit to actually power the amiga

Well the games and Amiga are useless without

Zeewolf · 25 June 2007, 10:45

Mine would be as follows:-

1. Sensible world of soccer
2. Centurion
3. Might and Magic 2
4. Civilisation
5. Wings
6. Moria or perhaps Hybris (undecided on this one!)
7. IK+
8. Stunt Car Racer

Though I'd like to think I could take alot more! It would be too hard to choose.

mrbob2 · 25 June 2007, 20:30

erm hang on a sec. Im now on my island with my amiga and my top 10 fave games, i do however have problems. Theres no joystick, mouse or tv......arghghghh can i go home and fetch em? thanks.

Graham Humphrey · 25 June 2007, 20:57

There's always one

(Oh, and it's eight games, not ten)

jabsy · 26 June 2007, 12:22

You are all liars. You'd all take 8 disks of .

Gordon · 18 August 2009, 10:36

Ok you are sent to live on a desert island. As well as all the essentials you are allowed to bring an Amiga(no HD

) with you and THREE games of your choice. What 3 would you choose? they may not neccesarly be your best games of all time.Think of longetivity.

I would bring
SWOS 96/97
Sensible Giolf
Settlers

TCD · 18 August 2009, 10:38

Arkanoid II
Civilization
Turrican II (yes, I know, but I can't live without it

)

Retro1234 · 18 August 2009, 10:39

Lotus 2
LionHeart
Mega lo Mania

Three games isnt enough!

Except mine was eight games not three

Ironclaw · 18 August 2009, 10:54

Well, if I'm sent to a desert island, with nothing more with me than an Amiga, I don't care what games I can bring, as I would not have time for playing around. I need to build a shelter first, find food..... and besides, a desert island usually have no stuff like sockets, electicity to power the Amiga.

Just my 2 cents.

Jgames · 18 August 2009, 12:19

Could i bring a programming language with me?, if that's the case, for the Amiga 500 i would bring:
- C programming software
- Turrican II
- A Pinball game (the best on the amiga)

mk1 · 18 August 2009, 13:31

This is easy..

- Pinball Fantasies
- Pirates! Gold
- Frontier

wilshy · 18 August 2009, 17:52

Syndicate - getting back into it and it's one that holds more memories than most for me.
Sim City - yes, the very original one.
Champ Manager 93/94 - so I could keep on trying to get Port Vale to the Premiership/league

I'd love to take Goal!, but not really a 1 player game. ATR the same, it's 2 player only imo. So unless I've got a friend, it's got to be decent 1 player games.

Overall I'd probably rather swap a game for Octamed and a sampler
