Do any of you remember doing the Chip RAM mod where you cut a trace on the motherboard (I think near the Fat Agnus chip) and resoldered another to get 1MB of Chip RAM. Man that was waaay before these youngin's and their silly overclocking fad. I had my 500 pimpin though, there was another RAM card where you could get 4MB of RAM by adding a daughterboard into the Gary chip's socket. I could only afford to get 1.5 MB of RAM in mine though.
I had a few games, Defender of the Crown, Shadow of the Beast I & II, Test Drive II ("Accolade presents...vrooom vrooom") and few more I can't remember. I should go dig out my old games from my parents attic.
Back in the day, it wasn't Intel vs. AMD or ATI vs. nVidia...naw it was Amiga vs. the Apple IIgs and no one even thought to compare either of those against the pathetic IBM PCs of the day. "Oh yeah, like your 4bit CGA can compare to 4096 HAM mode on the Amiga...phsssh"

Google WinUAE - play all your old Amiga games at full speed on your PC!
You can even use a USB PS2-style controller, and run fullscreen. It's great :heart:

It was very much like hockey/soccer where you threw and passed a small ball into a goal. My and my buds would play that for hours...
steelball?
