Can an Amiga computer run milestone first person shooter "Crysis"?

Well. "Yes it can." But you need some - just a little! - suspension of disbelief. Here's a prototype created by author lifeschool, that uses a slightly different approach to bringing the amazing graphics engine of "Crysis" to the Amiga. System requirements are comparably moderate:

• PAL Amiga 
• Kickstart 3.0 or higher
• 1MB Chip and 4MB fast memory
• 500MB free disk space

68030 or better CPU is recommended, though.

Spectacular Amiga 500 OCS 7Mhz first person shooter "Grind" is boldly going serial-link multiplayer.

"Grind" has come a long way from the early "Dread" demos. It's becoming a super polished game, with tons of atmosphere, thanks to the fine tuned visuals, and sounds, and of course the stunningly fast Doom-like 3D graphics engine. And it's got what way too few Amiga games, and especially first-person-shooter games have: it's multiplayer!

AmigaOS 4 News – June 2024 Hello, Thank you for visiting the Old School Game Blog and for being interested in checking out this month’s AmigaOS 4 Monthly Roundup. Both May and June proved to be a bit hectic for me, so I have not been as active as I normally am. Still, a new […]

 I didn't expect to have any time to write a blog post in June (same as May and April), but as it turned out I did, so here I am!

Partitioning the SSD Drive

2023 was a great year for Amiga gaming, a lot of games to review, and the stream of new releases doesn't stop. In this issue: Rick Dangerous, a bunny, a long overdue release announcement, puzzles, and multi-platforms.

OK Next part..

Time to get Chipmem working. and this is one of the bigger changes Commodore did on the CR. they added chipmem onboard.
so add:
U212, U213 (16V8) (those are NOT compatible from the GALs from the Rev2 A4000)
U260, U261, U262, U263 (memory)
Now Chipmem will work.

This time it is time to build an ReAmiga 4000CR..

Hi All,

I need to take a small break from the blog.

Hi everyone, Some of you might remember that I did an interview with Steffen Häuser, a.k.a. TheMagicSN, a few months ago in relation to the game he has ported for Hyperion Entertainment to AmigaOS 4, namely Heretic II. It turns out that the boxed version of the game is now available for purchase from Alinea […]

Hi, Some of you might have noticed that we’re currently in the middle of a competition in the game Tap Jewels over at Amigans.net. That inspired me to write a review of the game. For this review, I’ve played the game on a Sam460LE. It should work on most AmigaOS 4 configurations though. Tap Jewels […]
