The Commodore Amiga had hundreds of wonderful games, including these 50 that slipped under the radar for many.
Rediscover Player Manager 2 Extra: The Chase For Glory for Amiga and MS-DOS, a football management game released by Anco in 1995, a game where you are both a player on the team and the coach. Is it the best soccer management sim of the '90s?
The A500 Mini is, as the name implies, a miniature remake of The Amiga 500. It’s a new system being worked on by Retro Games, the same company behind the brilliant C64 Mini, a miniature version of the Commodore 64, one of the most famous systems of its time.
Pretty neat that it will also emulate the AGA chipset found in the 1200 and 4000. I miss my A1200 but if this can also be used to play CD32 ROMs (since that was an A1200 with CD drive) then this could be a really neat mini to have. The controller pictured is a CD32 style so Id guess the answer is yes.
My parents owned it and I grew up with this as a kid. Ishar series. Settlers, Dungeon Master, and countless others. Such classics. Definiately one to keep on the radar.
This is before my time I might snag a C64 mini always been curious about pc games from back in the day. I wonder if the ZX Spectrum will get a mini next or if one of the old Atari pc's will get a mini also?
BY STUART MCLEAN: Agony was an odd but incredible game. The classic owl-based shooter was developed by Art & Magic and published by Psygnosis in 1992 for the Commodore Amiga. Taking control of your barn owl, you shot your way through six surreal landscapes filled with weird and wonderful monsters.
Holy moly, this is a real blast from the past. Although I thought the game was pretty average, the music really was fantastic, amongst some of my favourite on Amiga along with the likes of Turrican 2 and Lotus Turbo 2.
