Turrican 2 (Amiga - unbelievable especially the soundtrack)

Have you tried turrican 3 on the amiga? I was in the amiga scene for a long time after many people bought a PC (in fact I built myself a a1200 and put in a tower and could play doom on it!!!) I think turrican 3 came out relatively late, but IMO it is the best of the lot.

Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine mostly.

Now there's a game.

Did you realise you can make the letters jump on the title screen by pressing the buttons? Hours of fun to be had there.

I still play Battlefield 1942 regularly, although mostly I play the Interstate82 mod for it but sometimes still play vanilla 1942, I still think its more enjoyable than BF2.

For me it's Motorhead , released 7 years ago

It runs at >350fps with 8x Supersampling AA/16xAF at 1280*1024

I remember being blown away by the graphics in the beginning but now they are just ugly and very little detail, when I look at such a game it makes me think how fast development in the computer industry and videocards has been.

I've been wanting that game for years and I still can't find it

I have tried one of the versions of Turrican 3 which was very poor - more of a step back than anything else with a view that seemed further away in Turrican 2 and was more of a platformer than a shooter.

I'm sure I have Turrican 3 on a CD somewhere and as I'm rebuilding my Amiga partition I'll check it out.

just managed to get my hands on a copy of discworld the game (1995) i never completed it as a kid so now is my chance

m4cc45 · 8 Jul 2006 at 21:06

I played it on the PS1 - I really didn't like it - come to think of it I don't really like the books either - lol

Playing Dungeon Master now in a view to completing it again then I'm going back onto Frontier to enjoy a space sim game whilst waiting for Elite 3 later on this year...

Blade Runner
Released in 1997 it's still a game I like and addicted too, despite completing it in every way possible. It was the first game I ever played on the PC, ever, and I generally love point-and-click adventure games.

Grim Fandango springs to mind too! :cool:
