Big up to the Amiga 500 crew!

[psd99]

did u buy one? have u still got it?

I still got mine, Amiga 500 that is, before home pc's Amiga's where the thing!!!

I love my Amiga 500 computer, still play it sometimes, got lots of games:

Lemmings
IK+
Lotus
Workbench! (not really a game closest Amiga got to windows)
Rick Dangerous



I reckon the Amiga 500 is a peice of gaming history so hang on to yours with both hands!

I have never owned an Amiga 500, but quite a few of my friends did about 10 years ago... I love them Lemmings and North and South were my favorites!

Are Amiga still around? I thought they were great!

Sorry but I'm going to have to hijack this post and make a comment that created many years of arguements between me and my mates at school.

I thought that my Atari ST was better than the Amiga!

Super Sprint ruled.

ST better than the Amiga, next you will tell me of its superior music abilities

I solved that little argument by having both, see even back then 1 computers was not enought.

Dungeon Master was the game that sold the Amiga and the ST to me, then later on Bloodwych, fantastic multiplayer RPG, well before its time.

On the kick off 2 note, I came across this a few days back
