M-M-M-MASK!

Yeah... I loved that show. Bought all the toys! Along with ZOIDS and transformers. But the series that REALLY kicked ass was JACE AND THE WHEELED WARRIORS!!! Complete rip off from star wars, but hey it was COOL! Evil plants that turned into killer cars!! Priceless!

I miss Commodore. I miss Workbench, I miss Psygnosis (devoured by Sony), I miss Domark, I miss the Bitmap Brothers.

Lucky I have emulation but it's never quite the same.

All Hail MASK

*Has Six Episodes on Video*

Must watch them again at some point. Actually, hmm... I wonder... we have a reasonably modern (though low end) VCR/DVD combined thing... if it has a digi out I might be able to grab a few onto the HD, convert to DivX and upload 'em somewhere... maybe...

BTW, Vectrex owns all old gaming systems

Vectrex was ace. I was addicted to scramble when I was two or three years old.

Yep. Jayce was the coolest. I've managed to get hold of a few episodes by various means but no where near all the episodes. I'm rather annoyed that Babylon 5 didn't feature a technomage called Gillian since only a few big fans would have gotten the in-joke anyway.

Another Amiga fan I see. It's very sad. The Amiga was literally 10 years ahead of the competition but everyone thought it was just a games machine and ignored it. That has to go in the all time book of humanities mass stupidity.

[Dark_4ce]

Yeah I used to own a Amiga too. An Amiga 2000 actually. Loved that machine, and when I finally moved to a PC, I was horrified with the low music and sound quality. And the fact that I had to buy a bloody soundcard as well. But then X-Wing came along and I promptly forgot about my Amiga. Its also still upstair in the attic gaining dust. But now I got all my old games emulated on my pc so I can happily relive the joys of Amiga again. Some of my favorite Amiga games were, Another World, Flood, Rock'n'Roll, Hostage, Awesome and The Lost Patrol. Not to mention Populous, Heart of the Beast (or was it eye of the beast), New Zealand Story, !!!SPEEDBALL 2!!!, and the Silk Worm series!!

[01010]

I must get Speedball 2 for my Gameboy Advance. I loved the Amiga and I seriously wish I could get my hands on an A1200 for nostalgia purposes.

Lets see, I had a Commodore 16+4, Commodore Vic 20, Commodore 64, Amiga 500, CDTV and an Amiga 1200 before I moved onto P.C's .

I started out with an Apple Mac 128 - 128Kb of RAM, no HDD, and everything booted off a 320kb(?) floppy. But the bugger has text-to-speech the equal of the engine that comes with modern versions of Windows, which was uber-l337.

[karajorma]

Yeah. The Amiga had that too. Makes you wonder why it to MS so long to catch up.

[Nico]

The only amiga thing I had was my CD32 ( a console, go wonder ).
I loved it, tho, too bad now it's broken

If someone finds me an emulator so I can play my CD32 games on my PC, I'd be grateful, btw

My first one... though not as old as some.

[J3Vr6]

When growing up my parents bought us kids an Apple IIc and I must have been in 3rd or 4th grade or something.  I didn't see another computer until I was in 8th or 9th grade , and that was a 286 mhz and a 20 mb harddrive Packard Bell.  It didn't even have Windows.  It had some sort of Dos Shell.

[Gortef]

ah the C64 *snif*. And it really felt like the games couldn't load any faster when the floppydisk drive came for it... and then came the consoles

Amiga was a real über1337 gaming machine back in the old days. Luckily my friend had it and we played a lot.

[karajorma]

The Amiga was designed to be the ultimate games machine but the bottom fell out of the gaming market so they turned it into a proper multitasking computer. But the uber games machine stuff still showed through.

When you realise that the A500 and the 286 were around at the same time it really shows you how advanced that computer was.

What's not satisfactory about this?

None of the links work for one thing

[Sandwich]

The important thing is that you see numerous references to something called "Aikko", which should be enough to tell you to Google that term and download the latest version.
