Does anyone have a list of what Psygnosis games that run correctly on the 3000? I'm familiar with the list of 3000/etc. compatible games that was posted some time ago, but it only had a couple of psygnosis games on it and I would like a more complete list, so I can know which ones are worth considering. I don't give a hoot about HD compatibility (I keep almost all my games on floppy anyway, along with all my demos -- Walker demos alone took up over 3 megs, a big chunk even out of 100...). The more complete the list, the better. I already know Lemmings works fine (great, in fact -- I bought it), and I know that Shadow of the Beast doesn't have a prayer, but other than that...

There is a program floating around 'out there' that disables caches, I believe called "Bootcache", which allows one re-boot afterward while retaining disabled caches..... This has allowed me to play a LOT more of the games that I 'lost' when going to my A3000.... -Mike-

Obliterator and BAAL work fine on the A3000.

Good news, if true (I reserve judgement until I see it (^:). It also might be nice if they update games like shadow of the beast for the 3000... In any case, does The Killing Game Show work on the 3000? I've gotten a single report that it didn't, but I'd like confirmation. The demo works, so I should think the game just might... doubt +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | "If I make it to breakfast, it probably means I haven't gone to sleep yet." | +------------------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+ | // Douglas Triggs | COMPUTER IS HUNGRY. | doubt@owlnet.rice.edu | | \X/ GM # 8400000E | PLEASE FEED. | Rice University | +------------------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+ Disclaimer: All opinions of Rice University are their own.

Well, I tried to get the Lemmings demo to run on my A3000 this weekend, and I got the title screen, but then it crashed (hung) the system. Has anyone else seen this action before on the demo version? BTW: The version I tried was from ab20.larc.nasa.gov in the incoming/amiga directory and it had been altered by some "cracking" crew since it had their intro at the beginning of the demo and their name on the opening screen. Is there a official version of this demo on some FTP site? -- __ Brett Bourbin \ / /(_ /\/ 11440 Commerce Park Drive ..!uunet!visix!brett \/ / __)/ /\ Reston, Virginia 22091 brett@visix.com Software Inc (703) 758-2733

Note that I had some problems initially just getting the game to load. NOW, it loads every time first time. I guess my drive alignment has changed somewhat such that the copy protection has stopped choking on my machine. -- Eric Quintana eric@rorschach.sps.mot.com Motorola Microprocessor Design (512) 891-2915
