In reply to Comment 7 (AmigaDE Forever):
Well, I guess there was a bit of humor intended there. :-) But who says nobody ever displayed AMOS at shows? It was a prominent product at its time. That time just was ten years ago. That, probably, was a major point in the sarcasm presented as well...
I digress:
Comparing AmigaDE and AMOS themselves is of course silly, but the general quality of current AmigaDE games (and the abilities of the current intent APIs) and those made for AMOS is certainly fertile ground for some discussion - although I'm sure none was intended.
AMOS was just used as a general term for something of "less than commercial" quality referring to the fact that software for AMOS often was due to its nature made by hobbyists. That in itself says nothing bad about AMOS (although it did have its rough spots), since that is what it was intended to do - it was a home creators' kit.
On the other hand, that is not what the AmigaDE is supposed to be, so the current performance certainly leaves something to be desired.
