I just salvaged my AMIGA from the depths of despair (well actually, a younger cousin I loaned it to many moons ago), and I was just wondering whether any dogbombers - at least those old enough to have seen this behemoth in action - were proud enough to own one, and what their favourite games were :confused: :alien:

I never really had a favourite, but I was particularly fond of a game called "Nuclear War" - anyone remember it?

I never had an amiga, but I had the fortune of having all the Dizzy games for the Spectrum. Took me many moons to play all of them.

Couldn't afford the Amiga when it came out downunder, (being a poor destitute student of no fixed means), used to just stare at the displays through the PC shop's window:cry:

I remember the old Atari Console ... used to have some pretty cool games on it for it's time, and I used to go to a friends next door to my grans just to play :)
