Haven't had a chance to use my Amiga...

So the system wants me to make a post and I wanted it be somewhat relevant so I wanted to state that about two years ago I bought a used Amiga 500 and replaced the drive in it with a USB interface and ever since then I've never had a chance to use it. I think it's mostly because I didn't know what an Amiga really was until I found an Amiga 1000 (sans Keyboard and Mouse) in a thrift shop and bought it. But now I wish I had had an Amiga when I was a kid instead of an old PC if only because there was so MUCH to the machine.

But now that I have one I can do a lot with it... if I can ever find a spot to put it or time to use it... *sigh* one day. But at least now I have a ton of reasons to do so with all the great Amiga games listed here! Thank you!

That's the issue of our day and age, isn't it? Overkill of options.

Now you see the violence inherent in the system!

Here here...I wholeheartedly agree. I wish o had more time to spend with my trusty A500, which I've had since my father bought it for me in 1992. Ah well....least it still looks good.:D
