While browsing YouTube today, I stumbled upon an interesting video by The4mula. It is called “Buying New Amiga Systems in 2012″.
As the title suggests, this video contains information on all Amiga options available in 2012 and where you can get hold of them. This video should be particularly interesting to those of you who are new to the Amiga, as well as old users curious about what’s going on with the platform today.
After watching it, I thought some of you might find it enjoyable to watch. I’ve therefore embedded it below.
Enjoy the show!
Update: Sorry, but it seems like it is not possible to embed the video on my blog due to some restrictions with it. To be able to watch it, you must follow the link that pops up in YouTube window. Sorry again.
A lot of people have tried to get Napalm: The Crimson Crisis, which is an old-school Amiga RTS, to work properly under Amiga OS 4.x. I remember struggling to get it functioning on my SAM440EP, but I had to throw in the towel. The game just wouldn’t work, no matter how hard I tried.
The good news is that we don’t have to worry about this anymore, as Alfkil Wennermark has released a patch that makes this classic game compatible with machines running AmigaOS 4.x. Isn’t that great?
Napalm is, as mentioned earlier, a classic RTS for the Amiga. It was released in 1999, came on a CD, and featured some pretty impressive graphics for its time. I found a review of the game on YouTube that lasts for about eight minutes. It was made by a guy calling himself The4mula. You can find it below:
Any AmigaOS 4.x users out there going to play this game?
