What is this website about...? I am an avid videogame magazines collector collecting magazines since 1989. Back in 2000 my old mags from the Eighties started to fall apart and I decided to preserve them by converting game reviews to HTML. This website contains 7811 reviews of 2375 games for the Amiga home computer that originally appeared between 1987 and 2000 in seven mags I regularly bought: Amiga Computing, Amiga Format, Amiga Joker, Amiga Power, CU Amiga, ZERO and Zzap! |

I haven't been in the Amiga scene for quite some years now as I have long since left for the shores of planet BeOS. However I recently had the chance to re-enter the Amiga World at an Amiga show in the South-East of France when I went to meet a potential employer - after being "discovered" on OSNews! You'd think that a computer which hasn't shipped in years would have a small dwindling community. If you thought that well, you'd be wrong. This show dwarfs the BeOS BeGeistert shows I go to in Germany. Yet, Begeistert is for all of Europe and held every 6 months, this was just one French Amiga show and they are held around Europe nearly every week. |

A system software release for the ages. Five years after releasing the Amiga 1000, {...} It was time to bring AmigaOS, too, into the 1990s. |

A few days ago, I had the chance to try the Raspberry Pi 500 version of AmiKit X13—an AmigaOS modern-retro environment capable of rivaling any classic Amiga desktop, yet enhanced with substantial improvements that make it accessible, adapted to modern times, and above all, incredibly fun to use. |

When I started this blog I did say I would talk about things other than handheld consoles so here we go. A console from the early 90s. My main passion when it comes to consoles and computers is the Commodore line of computers, mainly Amiga, my favourite of all is probably the A1200, but let's not talk about that, let's talk about the console, some call a variant of the A1200, the CD32 which in itself is a very powerful console and more expandable than was thought it ever could be when it was released on September 17th 1993. |

Since last April, some Amiga developers have been a bit nervous. The reason? SAS decided to drop the Amiga version of SAS/C, effectively removing one of the main development platforms on the machine and leaving users of the system with bugs that will not be removed. However, all was not quite lost; Matt Dillon’s shareware compiler called DICE was gaining so much support that it was decided to really work on the thing for version 3 to create the ultimate C package. This was no small undertaking and hence the package has moved to the commercial world under the wing of Obvious Implementations Corporation. |

The world, its brother and their cats have all by now seen MagicWB. For those still left who haven’t, MagicWB is a rather incredible package that will make your Amiga a much nicer place to work. “Sweeping generalisations are dangerous”, so people say, but in this case the generalisation holds true. MagicWB is a collection of 8 colour icons, patterns, documentation and a few support programs which in itself doesn’t sound revolutionary. It’s when you see the quality of these icons and patterns that you get some idea of just how “useful” MagicWB is. (Editor’s note: written in November 1994, and published in Amiga Computing as my first review for them) |

It's the show made entirely on and about the Amiga computer. It's The Amiga Show! |
