There was a great racing game called 'Zoom' or something. The feeling of speed was immense, and tyre damage was optional and you could go to the pits to fix it.

Sensible soccer was worth owning it for alone.

The music from Xenon 2 rocked my world at the time.

You only need Hired Guns. And some friends. You could probably hire some.

SYNDICATE! how did I forget to add that to my list....although personally, I think the mega drive version was better!

Moonstone was sort of like a side scrolling action/RPG, up to four players I believe?

I've got some great memories chopping up my mates in that game.

sounds similar to a game called Orc Attack, which had to repel orcs that were climbing up a tower! Lots of carving fun!

Motorhead anyone? Killing people with guitars has to be good!

So many excellent Amiga games, this one was my favourite though. Way ahead of it's time.

Shadow of the Beast was a goodie too.

i loved James Pond! I cant believe how many games were good at the time - compare them to what the PS3 has produced in terms of quality, and its shocking really.

Silly Putty anyone?
