A Look At Lumberjack Reloaded CD32

Lumberjack Reloaded for the Amiga came out a couple months ago now, the reason for this late article is that i wanted to try the game a bit more on various hardware here. There’s two versions available, 1 CD version (CD32/CDTV) and 1 Floppy version and the one i got is the CD version which works on both the CDTV and the CD32. Every version of Lumberjack Reloaded comes in a white DVD case and...

Insane Amount Of Amiga’s Spotted In SUPERHOT VR

The love for the Commodore Amiga is far from uncommon in today’s gaming scene although most of it goes into small references and nothing like the stuff you can spot inside the first minute of SUPERHOT VR. The amount of Amiga’s spotted within a few minutes in this game is nothing short of amazing!. An Amiga 1200 spotted on the desk, tucked in between an A3000(?) and an odd looking...

A Look At Jeff Minter’s Polybius

Jeff Minter AKA Yak is one of those guys that i just can’t get enough of, i have been a huge fan ever since his very strange Camel games back in the 80s, hell for all i know it might even be longer than that too as he made a lot of games before that too including the very memorable Hover Bover.

Amiga: Shadow Of The Beast IV Fan-Art Intro

I do not understand how i could have not heard about this when it came out back in 2013, but yes this is actually the first time i got to see the whole intro, and by the look of things it seems i am not the only one.

How About A Video Of “Every” Amiga Game Released?

This is something i actually planned on creating myself, but a youtuber named Joshhny Asaski beat me to it. Imagine spending all this time at recording and playing every single game out there? , imagine all the bad games? , all the good ones? , it is an humongous task to say the least. The video here is an incredible 7 hours and 25 minutes long and supposedly got every Amiga game released in it, i...

The Return Of WonderBoy/Girl – The Dragon Trap Remake

I’ve been joking a lot about the PS4 being the master of remakes lately and guess what, i actually meant it too albeit not in such a negative way as many would like to think it is.

Ever heard about Laserdisc arcade games? , well one of the most known one has to be Dragon’s Lair or maybe Mad Dog Mccree. Many of these Laserdisc arcade machines had an Amiga in them together with an genlock and a Laserdisc player. The gameplay mostly consisted of a Full Motion Movie and a simplistic overlay like a crosshair or some quick time events arrows which indicated which way to move...

A Look At: ENEMY 2: Missing In Action Collectors Edition

Enemy 2 was originally released as an download-only title back in 2013, but for some reason the developer decided to do a Collectors Edition re-release last year. The Collectors edition is a big box “retail” version of the original 2013 title, nothing extra here except for what collectors like, which is cardboard and plastic!. The big box version was actually mentioned several years...
