    Yeah H. I was an avid Flashback fan too & you're dead right, it does look rather good, but then would it be the same playing it now?

    That's a good point, as there's many similar indie games existing in a flashbackish style. Btw, did anyone try Mark of the Ninja or Deadlight yet? I think both are great.

    I really should check those games out in the future.

    Mark of the Ninja is a great game. Well worth playing.

    I have also owned Deadlight since release, but not played it yet.

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

    I never took seriously any Official Trailer from any game or even movie. But with todays technology, every game seems brilliant with marvellous graphics and crystal and clear DR sound, but what about gameplay, which is the most critical element for any game? Don't call me wrong, but the remake of SuperFrog HD was really bad.

    Also it seems that most developers seem to run out of unique ideas, and they trying to remake old goldie games from the past; it's like music, most songs nowadays are remakes or remixes whatever of old nice songs.

    As for Flashback, which is still one of my favourite platform game, the Amiga version has still the best character-animation from any other game, I really doubt that the new remake (or any remake) will make my jaw touch the floor now, as before one or two decades.

    If they can achieve it with a plain A500 with 1MB RAM, then probably will do.

    Yes Phantom, I understand exactly what you mean, particularly the animation of the character. It's the same as trying to play Pinball Fantasies on WinUAE.

    It just doesn't scroll smoothly at all.

    Only Amiga makes it possible.
