I'll see your ST...
...and raise you a Commodore Amiga.

Ha!
We all had Amigas down our way.

And downstairs toilets too.

We all wanted Amigas
But none of us had one (well, except one kid who had both a ST and an Amiga).

Whilst I could boast both a upstairs and downstairs shitter, at the time we all used to try and convince ourselves that the ST was better thanks to Soul II Soul doing something with MIDI and the ST.

Not that any of us understood what the hell this meant.

the Amiga was definitely better
the standard argument was that the soundchip in the ST was like a squashed banana. I don't know why or what that means.

Pinball Dreams
and the subsequent sequels were amazing as well. Very annoying, but looked and played brilliant.

Nice one
It was the futuristic cop type one on Fantasies that I played literally to death. Hours would whizz by in a multiball shaped sheen of sweat.

Many happy hours were spent getting my Amiga to speak
I used to annoy friends with it

"Ben fancies Lindsey Potter"
"Ian smells"
"Clive is gaaaaay"
(Bicycle Repairman "you're also a bit of a wanker", Fri 10 Sep 2010, 16:20, Reply)

Is Clive really a bandit?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 10 Sep 2010, 16:29, Reply)

No, he isn't
Ian did smell though and Ben definitely had the hots for Lindsey Potter, who IIRC became a bit of a hotty herself once she lost her braces.

It's a funny old world.

Sensible Soccer on the Amiga
Could well be the finest game ever produced.
(Cancer Joy was short lived, Fri 10 Sep 2010, 16:15, Reply)

It's fantastic
I remember how disgusted we all were when Sensible Soccer appeared on the Megadrive and they'd made it ridiculously easy compared to the Amiga.

Remember a game called Moonstone?
one of the best games ever made. Rock hard on the Amiga. Had all day sessions playing it and couldn't win.

Got it on the PC a couple of years ago and had completed it within half an hour.
