Always an interesting topic.  There's so many old games I loved, it's hard to pick a favourite!

Simcity 2000
Quake
Duke Nukem 3D
Command and Conquer
Diablo

What else did you love playing?

- Alien Breed (Amiga)
- Chaos Engine (Amiga)

2 of the best top-down shooters ever.

- Turrican [1, 2 or 3] (Amiga)
- Golden Axe (Mega Drive)
- Streets of Rage (Mega Drive)
- SF Rush 2034 (Dreamcast)

Lots of others  :grin:


I don't think a semi will give the same results

Ooo forgot about those  :cool:

My mate had a copied version of Golden Axe for his Amiga. We only completed it about 3/4 times as it kept freezing on the last boss  :angry: :laugh:

Ooo Double Dragon was cool too

Most of our Amiga games were dodgy copies, our Street Fighter 2 stopped working after a certain stage  :lipsrsealed:

An awesome machine for its time. I had an A1200, with an extra floppy drive.

OOOOH Sensible Soccer and the original Worms on Amiga were great.
