    The first Amiga game you purchased?

    Rather than the first Amiga game you played, which might have been bundled with your Amiga, or something a friend owned, what was the first commercial Amiga game you actually went out and purchased?

    I can't think what mine is at the moment. I will have to look through my games and try to remember.

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

    Purchased? That's a long story. All of them were pirated copies (yes, to find an original game for Amiga in Greece was a little bit impossible here).

    But when I visited London in 1994, I bought my first Amiga games. Those were:

    Arcade Pool
    Seek & Destroy
    James Pond 3


    If gifts are counting in, then my first game was European Dreams; a compilation of 4 games.

    Ah, but that was bundled. What about purchased separately?

    I only purchased one game for the Amiga, which was Kick Off: Player Manager. I had to go to Germany to buy the game, as in Luxembourg there were almost no computer shops at that time, and they also didn't have a lot of software. And that was during all the time I had an Amiga my only original game.

    Think it was Cloud Kingdoms for me, on budget. Wasn't me who went and got it though, my dad did or someone like that - I was only five when I got my first Amiga.

    I don't know. My Alzhiemers is too far gone . Probably Elite. I know my first pirated game was Overkill and I was amazed by the AGA graphics.

    You had pirated games in UK? I thought UK was the source of original Amiga games back then.
