Any Amiga 500 fans out there? - scarydk - 07-12-2012 07:00 AM
Although my first computer was a C64, the A500 holds a special place in my heart. Man, the games we played on this baby they are like 10 times better than any game released on any other platform...
Alas, my old A500 is now long gone and it's time to clear the inventory.
If anyone in here at TZG is an A500 fan and still play a few games now and again, you can have any of my last two games for free. All I'm asking in return is for you to pay the postage charge.
I'm in Denmark FYI.
The games offered:
- Dune (1992)
- Might and Magic III (1991) Please note this game requires an external Floppy Disk Drive to run!!

My friend had an amiga 500 and I used to have a 600.
He later upgraded to the 1200
So yes, a fan right here.
I too still have some games laying around here but unfortunatly no more Amiga.

Wow... Dune! Unfortunately, no Amiga here too...
My 'first' computer was a Apple II. (Back in '89... I was just four!)

I always wanted an Amiga but I ended up with an Atari ST. My favourite game was Maddog Williams (no ones ever heard of it but it was like Monkey Island) It can now be downloaded for free.

Then it must be an awesome game.
An Amiga emulator is available for free as well as loads of games - so the dream still lives

my amiga is still working, although without the original monitor, i can only mount it on tv which sucks, i also have hundreds of games on it and i agree these games where the best we ever played, it was not the graphics or the sound it was the feeling, the ambition to load, the introductions that were having wonderfull images, in some cases more than just intro(dune is one), I still remember those years and my eyes want to cry from happiness!!
it is a huge chapter to talk on, i will pass on the games since i dont think i will use them, just wanted to agree with scarydk

For me the Amiga and Ataria ST era were the golden years of gaming.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one with good taste
A taste for bytes and bites that is...

A Hard Days Knight
A great game in multi-player mode. Remember being teared apart and burned by dragon flames quite a few times
Do share your pics!
