    Except you can't play that without an expanded A1200 as it needs 3MB of ram (2mb chip + 1MB fast) and an HD to save games. So I didn't include it. I also missed out many other games for that reason. If you get an accelerator and some fast rame Tiago, then you will have access to even more great games.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    I second most of the recommendations on Harrison's list. Plenty of good games there to try.

    If you are into Solitaire, there's always Klondike AGA, a PD game. It beats the crap out of the ones that are included in Windows, so if you are bored one day, give it shot. In this game, you can also add new cardets, and these can probably be found on Aminet.

    Klondike is a great PD game. I used to play that a lot.

    Dammit, I still need to run Wasted Dreams, Napalm, and Codename Hellsquad one of these days.

    BTW, I really didn't know there was a hard disk for the Amiga.
    How big was it?

    Hard Disk? My A1200 had a 200MB but i change to a 5GB, but only make the format at 4GB, it can't go for more...
    A500 - A600 - A1200

    You didn't realise Amiga's could use harddrives? All models from the A500 up have been able to. The A500 with side bus expansions such as those from GVP, all big box Amigas with SCSI zorro cards, and IDE in the A600, 1200 and 4000.

    Any drives can be made to work, but as Tiago mentioned the Workbench file system limits you to a maximum of 4GB total HD size. But you can go beyond that by either using a different third party file system, or a newer version of Workbench such as 3.9 which has the support built in.

    I used to think the same about my 40MB Vortex drive for my A500...

    Ah well, ya live and learn (although I tend to forget the latter part)
