Good CD32 games

@Valiant

Done

Well, Softhut didn't have Superfrog in stock anymore and they don't list Pirates! Gold, so I'm going to try Alien Breed 3D which they do have listed. I know Zant recommended Tower Assault, so I'm wondering what the differences are?

Erm, you ask between the difference of Alien Breed 3 Tower Assault and Alien Breed 3D?

Alien Breed 3D is an First Person Shooter placed in the Alien Breed Universe - but i personally don't liked it. The Demo looked IMHO nicer than the full release (the demo has other 3D Alien Models) and Alien Breed 3 Tower Assault is an old school 2D Top Down action games which inludes in the CD32 version some FMV sequences and Alien Breed 2.

My favorite Games are:
Alien Breed 3 - Tower Assault
Der Clou! (The Clue!)
Flink
Pirates! Gold

and some others i can't remember.

btw: if i remember correctly i had bought an second copy of Alien Breed 3 TA a few years ago - i will check this tonight.

Thanks for the info, cHaOs667. I would have like to have gotten Tower Assault or even Pirates! Gold but all Softhut has at the moment is Alien Breed 3D, and just the AGA floppy version at that, not a CD32 one. I went ahead and ordered it so I'll give it a try and see how I feel about it.

@Valiant

RetroPack.co.uk: They have Pirates Gold in stock, never bought from them though

They even sell A1200 and CD32 consoles according to their site

@Valiant

I had a CD32 a long time ago. One of my favorite games was Universe. Especially the music gives it a good atmosphere.

@Sister_Rita

What is your favourite Amiga computer model and why?:

Without a doubt the CDTV, so incredibly far ahead of it's time.

YES!! I've got Amiga CD Football for 1 Euro from eBay!
Complete with both manuals!!!

:dancing :banana

i hope i will receive them before this weekend!

Simon the Sorceror is a great game for the CD32...

Roadkill, Chaos Engine, Worms as well...

Hi,

have no CD32 .. but the wonderfull power of 2 CD32 emu pakages
for Amiga1200/4000 -> CD32 from the IDEFix pakage and CDBoot.

Have only 3 CD32 games [buy only CD32 title if he have a advantage
over the floppy version - or if available only on Cd32 ]
-> Microcosm ORGINAL 1A pakage [superior Amiga title ]
-> Little Devil [funny and very good gfx]
-> Guardian CD32 [more levels as floppy version and good music and
on 060/66 VERY FAST 3D combat!]

The first 2 running very good with the CD32 emu [with save working!]
and the last running full workung with CDBoot [save working
too - on the CD32 emu save not working]

Searching Flink CD32 [expensiv :\ ] .. but maybe ...

R-TEAM

Hehe - i own it!

It took me 2 years of searching and then i've got only the original CD - but this game is the searching and the money realy worth!

After i've got AmigaCD Football i'm now searching for Simon The Sorcerer - does there only an english version exist?

Quote:

I have to say the A1200... It was the first Amiga I used for anything other than games. When I bought it (Desktop Dynamite pack) I also got an extra disc drive and a Danish user guide to OS3.0. Then I realised how great and wonderful the system was...

A year later I bought the Blizzard 1220 and for christmas my parents got me a 635mb harddrive... Oh, I was so happy then!

And now... sad and nostalgic...

But forget it on CD32 its low resolution, the ECS version was high res, and the CD32 version doesn't support the mouse - on a point and click adventure?!!

I think most of the good CD32 games can as easily be played on a 1200/4000 equipped with a CD and CD32 emulation software.

Having said that I cant get my CD32 emulation script to run now that I have a Mediator, (anybody got any ideas with that?)

So do you just want good Amiga games on your CD32 or are you after games that surpass the original Amiga versions?

That aside, if you like Adventures I'd say get Beneath a Steel Sky and Simon the Sorceror, which are both talkie soundtrack jobs, and are quite highly rated.

As mentioned Tower Assault has got a fairly "unique" FMV intro which is pretty amusing.

UFO is not so good on CD32 in that it doesn't save all the info for you.

How about Gunship 2000?

2 space games that are certainly excellent on a 1200 are the CD32 version of WingCommander and the CD/CD32 version of Star Crusader. You might want to check my reviews on the AGDB. (You'll find a lot of other CD32 reviews there as well.)

PGA Golf ought to be very good if you like that sort of thing, Putty, erm.... the CD32 version of Frontier was the latest version ever produced, but has problems using a mouse....

erm....

Banshee
Heimdall 2
Aladdin
Super Stardust
Fire and Ice

Apologies, I saw mention of Aladdin CD32 on a website, but I've looked further and it does not actually seem to exist - unless sombody has written the floppy game to CD in a way that will work with the CD32.

Sorry.
