National Hockey League & Amiga announce deal
Not quite sure what's going to happen here, but i noticed this news story on nhl.com:
http://www.nhl.com/news/2005/10/237182.html Seems to me like some kind of content is going to be created, games and other content for various platforms, the interesting thing is why did they choose Amiga out of the blue like that? As a hockey fan, i'll be watching this closely... |

I only wish
These "New" phone & PDA games seem to be similar to earlier software packages Amiga's owners have been touting for a while.
It's a FAR cry from the hardware that enticed us to become so interested in the firstplace However some will surely want to "BELIEVE" it keeps the name alive instead of just cashing in on its past |

Being Canadian it's obvious I'm a hockey fan. I just wish Amiga Inc. would change it's name. It's obvious they are not into the hardware side anymore and that is where they will be remembered. Not shilling some low budget PDA software. It's almost blasphemous.

That's pretty neat about Amiga and the NHL signing a deal like that, I'm a huge hockey fan myself so that's cool!
And the best hockey game on the Amiga is Wayne Gretzky Hockey (by Bethesda I believe). |

I hate realistic sports games, so my money is on Nintendo Ice Hockey (NES) I remember my brother and I got callouses on our thumbs playing it. We just put tape over them and continued playing, gritting our teeth :P :P
