Amiga 500: Syndicate

[alcrd]

ahh nostalgia ....

[Cloakfiend]

WTF!! This was way better than doom, doom was just a corridor explorer game as i call it. Syndicate was fucking awesome, that gatling gun ruled!!!

[bernatk]

Hmm, yeah I remember Syndicate. But I was busy playing Doom on my PC. :P

How freaking lame this game was compared to Doom lol.

[TheMugfaker]

@bernatk - well it is a completely different game to Doom....

[starzan79]

moja ulubiona gra na amige przeszedlem prawie cala ,bodajże ostatnia misja to byl horro nie do przejscia

[ShootMcKay]

This kind of street violence was way ahead of GTA. Extremely cathartic and bloddy and violent and shit.

[nerothos]

If this was any more visceral, I would probably burst my intestines.

[xCrimsonGear]

Visceral FPS Experience!

[drsyn]

Hello happy memories!

[dageezerboi]

@drsyn yeah and it is being remade as a brainless FPS like XCom -_- sad gaming age we are in. 

[drsyn]

@dageezerboi I'll give it a chance, like I did with XCom. As it looks like cyberpunk, mentions the whole control chips, Eurocorp and cyborgs. Sure it's not you being the executive controlling 4 pawns doing your bidding mission to mission. Has Potential to be good, even if slight. Unlike XCom which retains none of the aesthetic, flavour or anything from the original, let alone gameplay. Not one Grey, Snakeman, Cyberdisks or fucking Chryssalids. And it's set in the 1950s for some reason.

[dageezerboi]

@drsyn yeah but its a FPS..like there isnt enough already. Sure it could be a good FPS I mean Starbreeze are pretty good devs but it aint Syndicate. I agree on Xcom though, that looks trash.

[kimpleton1]

@dageezerboi

It's nice to read about Firaxis Studios, who making X-Com:enemy unknown game with turn based action and real strategy. There is still little hope for really good games.

[headboartusk]

Can I just explain how dumb I was, I made it to the last level before I realised I could spend my $'s on upgrades.No wonder it was so fking hard!!

[qettyz]

@headboartusk :D

[dageezerboi]

@headboartusk lol yeah that is pretty dumb no offense. congrats playing it hardcore though ;)

[Guardian1224]

This was my favorite game, 18y ago. I've completed this game several times.

Still to this day I've never found out when and where to use the 'Access Card'. I didn't need this to complete the game but I REALLY need to know... Can somebody clear this up for me? Then I can put my mind to rest :)

[PlaySyndicateNews]

Coming back soon... :D

[goenteman]

one of the best games ever played since 20 years !

[smokeybarr]

Did this game have a persuadatron? I used to persuade a big posse and tool them up! Brilliant.

[toggsuk]

The first game I played that let you set random passers by on fire, and then watch them run around screaming lol.

[sqren100]

No the intro is the Amiga version, and it is sooooo cool

[aphex187]

Played this to death in '93 whilst blasting out Souls Of Mischief '93 Til Infinity, good times!

[pikeybot]

Grand theft auto for the amiga ha ha

[S0ryiu]

@pikeybot GTA? this is nothing like GTA, this is a tactical top down shooter while GTA is an open world crime drama.

[therealMrMackem]

Awesome game, so destructive *manic laugh* loved it.

[Rawsawn]

you highly underestimate the awesome graphics the Amiga 500 could deliver !

[NukeCorruption]

@Rawsawn music too!

[qettyz]

@NukeCorruption Yeah, at that time amiga's sounds was amazing compared to pc's =)

[NukeCorruption]

@qettyz Amiga 500 was the first computer system I ever played with when I was a kid, and still I use to play it. except lots of my brother's games I have from the past doesnt work so well anymore. the music was so awesome that time I still listen to chip tunes and amiga game music. never gets old!

[ManOWar2Red]

the pc version was the better one.

[Rastamimz]

@ManOWar2Red not even in the slightest.

[Sinekyre14]

That intro is WAY too good to be on the amiga 500, isn't it?

[TheTechBrain]

Ah... Bullfrog. The best games ever.

[thewotsit]

Always enjoyed the persaudatron and rounding up the town, only to blow them away with the gauss gun once the enemy shows up. mayhem.

[DingKong]

This game is still playable today - a total classic on the miggy. The intro really sets the scene too. Awesome stuff.

[peterpokedapig]

I remember when this was the best game ever, do you remember assassinating the president in his motorcade, fucking priceless.

[LeeEclipse74]

I used 2 love this game!

[stupidjunk878]

Sound sucks ass on this version, even compared to the SNES/genesis

[gcravenater]

memory,s what a game

[critanime]

@gcravenater yeah was an amazing game. Syndicate Wars was just as good.

[sunstar61]

loved the Gause Gub in this game, although on the Amiga, the frame-rate used to slow down a lot when a lot was happening on-screen at once.

[shedsucker]

Best game ever on the amiga

[RabinoRojo]

Too bad you don't remember in the vid where it's spain man...

The rest of the vid excellent! thanks for show how it was on the Amiga!!!

I'm playing it again after 16 years with DOSbox LOL

[norterrible]

[JAiONA3022]
