In reply to Comment 2 (Michael Taylor):
Nah... As far as I'm concerned, people buy hardware because of a certain game, not the other way around. When I get a new kick-ass graphics card, it'll be because I want to play the next version of Unreal Tournament.
I (thought I) was never a fan of 'kill em all' games until I bought Unreal Tournament for my Pee Cee. Amazing 3d and online capability makes it *miles* more playable than anything I've played on my Amiga I'm sad to say). (Even shock-horror... DirectX8 seems ok).
Hopefully we will see UT for the AmigDE (ask Fleecy, he's a regular player...)
I've been playing it for months and because of the availability of 'home-made' maps/levels I can see myself still playing it for a long time to come.
I've bought enough hardware and software for my Amiga over the years - I want something faster/newer now. I loved the classic for many years (And yes, there are great games for it too...), but I think it's time to move on.
Dave.
