The controversial classic 3D shooter appears for MorphOS and Amiga 68K 3.9. This game has excellent play value but is known for violence (monsters explode realistically with lots of blood) and sexual elements (city block includes porno bookstore, later scenes include partially nude women encapsulated in alien slime). 3D Duke. I recall running this game on a Pentium 75, so maybe it will run on a 68060 but I don't think you'll get great performance. On MorphOS it should be fine. However BBRV of Genesi has expressed disapproval of games of questionable morality, IIRC. I think they raised objections to Payback.

In reply to Comment 44 (Mad-Matt):
> Soft midi playback isnt all that esource consuming.

It is on 68K when you have chunky->planar going on on an AGA system.

> gmplay supprt with a wrapper wouldhave worked

The music sounded horrendous with GMPlay plus it would not have worked easily controlling GMPlay from the CLI in the background.

> or other solutions like doomsoundlibrary.

I wasn't aware of doom's sound library and anyway, doom doesn't use standard MIDI files.

Timidity also didn't exist on the amiga, and unless the author of the amiga port has released his source, it is a violation of the GPL.

> The choice wouldhave been nice

It was a small inconsequental part of the game. Mac users didn't complain. I belive the amount of moaning from the Amiga community over this issue was simply because we said "Amiga isn't good enough at MIDI".
