what I find amazing is how small games were, at 720k or 1.44mb. Games like dungeon master, eye of the beholder and captive could keep you busy for weeks or months and seemed to go on forever in some cases.

I know its all graphics and video, with masses of sound effects and music but that doesn't always make a good game.

That said, it wasn't all a bed of roses, some of those amiga/ST games were pretty nasty!

I do like lots of modern day games, I tend to throw them all into a big smelting pot and mix old with new and get the best of both era's. 

I remembr being paticularly happy on completing Defender of the crown on my humble little Atari ST.

Amiga:
1. cadaver
2. elite (never reached elite rank)
3. knightmare (mindscape version) (disk had a bug that I could never get past)

C64:
Tir Na Nog, loved this game, couldn't figure out what to do though

I'm sure there are loads more 

[Abhoth]

Moonstone (mine were unstable, so I never got to finish the game without it crashing first)
It Came To The Desert (I still plan on finishing this, just need to figure out how to make a savedisk for it so I can play it on PSPUAE)
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (one of my floppies turned out to have an error, so couldn't finish it)
Lost Patrol
Shadow Of The Beast

[Hungry Horace]

It Came To The Desert (I still plan on finishing this, just need to figure out how to make a savedisk for it so I can play it on PSPUAE)

use the RISS in the downloads section, and just save the game with a save-state.  you dont need a save disk



i'm surprised to see ICFTD, SteelSky and Another World listed here at all though.
