Are there any noticeable differences between this and the older releases? I personally never found any problems with the older ones

I always upgrade to the lastest just because it makes it more compatible with some games , more stable e.t.c. However if you feel everything is working just fine , i wouldn't bother upgrading.
 
People still play Amiga games?? lol

Yes, because they are better than many PC games - I play more Amiga games than PC games. :D

Currently installed on my Miggys HDD is:

Alien Breed
Alien Breed SE
Alien Breed 2
Alien Breed 3d
Alien Breed 3d2
Quake
Brutal Sports Fottball
Speedball 2
Walker
Captive 2: Liberation
Lemmings

Amongst many others....
 
long live the AMIGA :D currently playing Deuteros. Theres great games across every type of gaming system regardless of how they look.
 
Deuteros was one of those games which was solid back in the day - I can barely remember how to play it now! I have converted an Amiga 1200 into a tower and chucked a CDROM and hard-drive in there along with a 8MB Accelerator (030) though I need to get a better one.

Still playing SWoS, Kick Off 2, etc. theres nothing like them really on the PC (SWoS you need to use DOSBox for, etc.) and it's better to play them with a proper joystick.

Amiga was far ahead of its time, esp the 1200 (worlds 1st 32bit Computer).

Then Games were games and they were hard.

Dony know where you have been in recent months but there is a revival of 2D games like "Soldner X" and "Jets N Guns"
 
I think there was a Doom Amiga Project. Not sure about Quake though. Sure there was another 3D'er on the Amiga as well. The name Blood springs to mind though I don't think it's called that - lol

Want a bet, worlds 1st 32bit, can back it up too

I knew this well before PC and WWW were around for most of us.

You want to contest it, back it up or dont bother contesting. :)

BTW AMIGA 1200 not lower ones.

Little quote :


" Based on the Motorola 68k series of microprocessors, the machine sported a custom chipset with advanced graphics and sound capabilities, and a pre-emptive multitasking operating system (now known as AmigaOS). While the M68k was a 32-bit processor, the version originally used in the Amiga had a 16-bit external data bus, and the machine (along with its contemporary, the Atari Sixteen-Thirtytwo (ST)) was generally referred to in the press as a 16-bit computer.[citation needed] Later models sported fully 32-bit designs based on 68020, 68030, 68040, or PowerPC processors. The Amiga provided a significant upgrade from 8-bit computers such as the Commodore 64, and the Amiga quickly grew in popularity among computer enthusiasts, especially in Europe, and sold approximately 6 million units."

Also used by may Pop Artist and Movies like Termintor 2 AFAIK.


The Amiga CD32 was also worlds 1st 32bit Game Console.
