best:Zelda 64-words cannot describe how amazing this game was.

worst: alpha centuri-an extremely boring sci fi "geek" game that makes watching paint dry seem like the Liverpool vs Palace FA Cup Semi final. No offence Eagle Of the East http://www.cpfc.org/ubb/wink.gif

Totally agree Eagles R Us, Unreal Tournament is great, especially if you have ever played it over a network!! Might play you online some time...

Best is PacMan - I still play it on my Mac and recently got a high score of 151,670!

Worst is Toy Story 2 Cone Chaos which my son insists on playing at 6 in the morning.

Er... that's it.

I think it would be extremely unfair to include Championship Manager among the contenders.

Worst- Who wants to be a millionaire.

Noo! Horrace was great.

Strolling round a boot sale this morning I was staggered to see someone selling a Commodore Vic 20 still in its original wrapping, from the polythene cover to the box in mint condition! I don't actually think it had ever been used.

Brought back many memories of great - and appalling - games.

Anyway, carry on kids... http://www.cpfc.org/ubb/smile.gif

best-shenmue(dreamcast)
worst-alien storm(mega drive0

other contenders for best-metropolis street racer,virtua tennis etc (stop following the hype of playstation2 and get a dirt cheap dreamcast with many superb games-how many good games are there on the ps2? 0.)

When trying to evaluate one should look at playability as the deciding equalising factor across all formats. Thus I list the following:

Tomb Raider PS1
Zelda N64
Lemmings Amiga
Cadaver Amiga
Kick Off 2 Amiga
Rainbow Islands Amiga
Cannon Fodder Amiga
PGA Tour Golf Amiga
Turok II N64
Speedball II Amiga
Turrican Amiga
Another World Amiga
ISS N64

Bit of an argument forming against pretty graphics vs enjoyable games.

Shame Amiga used to crash though.

Worst

Nick Faldos Golf Amiga
Peter Beardsleys Soccer Amiga

Skid Row

There are too many good ones so here's my list

Played on the Atari
Combat
Labyrinth
Missile Command
Hero (Great game)
Pitfall
River Raid
Keystone Kapers

Played on the Commodore 64
Defender of the Crown (Cant wait for the new one)
Hounded II
Hillsfar
Superstar Soccer
World Games
Yie Ar Kung Fu
Tusker
Rygar
Kings Bounty
Gauntlet
Ghosts and Goblins
I'm sure there's more

Played on the Amiga 500
Pirates
Cinemaware Basketball
Fire and Ice
Vikings

Played on the PC
Anything with Might and Magic in the title
Monkey Island 2 & 3
Dungeon Keeper 1 & 2

Worst
I usually like Football Manager games and that's how I started following Palace but I must say that Championship Manager is one of the worst games I have ever played.

Have to take issue with that. I think its awful. I don't know how anyone enjoys playing it. If you're playing against a friend, all you need to do is wiggle the joystick around lots and they can't tackle you.

Still, if you enjoy it, its your opinion.

ISS Pro Evo 2 on the PSX is my opinion.

Faldos Golf what a waste of 20 notes. It was so hard it was unplayable. Never played New Zealand Story.

Fire and Ice was good as was a game called
Chaos Engine.

I still have my Amiga must set it up sometime
for old time sake.

Heres one for you 500 heads, Pinball dreams, best Pinball on a home machine I have ever played.

Didn't have any friends till the BBS, I have even less now. ISS was pretty rewarding against the computer. Never played any of the further releases on other formats, heard them raved about on here though.

Go to any emulator site and follow the instructions for downloading and setting up the emulator. Spectrum, C64 MAME(all the old full arcade games including Neo-Geo) Atari etc will work from the download but you still need to purchase the workbench for the Amiga. E-mail me at alanwhite@members.cpfc.org and I will let you know how to get a copy as I am not legally allowed to send it to you http://www.cpfc.org/ubb/smile.gif
