As I mentioned before, I picked up a few English Amiga Mags from my local software dealer and lo-and-behold if there wasn't an ad in one of them for what looks like a full blown Amigatized version of Ballblazer! (Looks exactly the same only with more detail) It's being called by a different name as this port wasn't done by Lucasfilm Games, but hopefully they, or someone else, will import it to the states. With the blitter chip tearing things up we should get a pretty good simulation of speed as well. > Racing Destruction Set (C64) > >Also, there used to be a lot of Summer Games, Winter Games, etc. types that I believe that Winter Games and World Games I both came out for the Amiga. They were marginal ports at best. -- | hastoerm@vela.acs.oakland.edu | __ | | | __/// Viva Amiga! | | Founder Of: Evil Young | \XX/ | | Mutants For A Better Tomorrow | "Single Tasking: JUST SAY NO!" |
