I'm here for the trash-talking stormtroopers. This game was so much fun, back in the day!

[@OptimusMonk01]

Oh great! I wonder if he is using that technique that allows an A500 to render Doom in realtime, or just relying on the raw speed of the Vampire?
Here's a list of games of that era that should have been on Amiga if only...
* XCom 2 Terror from the Deep
* Fallout 1 and 2
* Curse of Monkey Island
* Wolfenstein 3D
* Command and Conquer and Red Alert
* Day of the Tentacle
* X-Wing
* Myst
* and the first wave of true 3D games of course - Doom, Heretic, Descent, Duke Nukem
Fortunately time, and memory expansions and accelerators, mean most of these can now be played on Amiga. After that we entered the era of true 3D accelerated games with PS1 and PC 3dfx cards. What games would you have liked to see get an Amiga release back in the day?

This using the same sort approach as the DOOM ports available on the Amiga since the mid 1990s. Relies on RTG graphics techniques (chunky GFX not bit planes)

Hi! Could you record Mac Top gun: fire at will via Shapeshifter emulator? Since mac port was released 2 years after Pc orginal, i wonder how they differ to each other

[@manueljesus3147]

Hi! Well as long as it runs on 68k I can do it. The PowerBar PowerPC games won't run.

The music in this game is horrendous. 🤮

@@sillonbono3196 the Amiga MIDI interpretation music sounds better than the Mac version. Sound Blaster not required on the Amiga ;)
