I love this part. It was what first made me think "hey, this game would make a great movie". Sure, they'd have to change some of the puzzles, but the setting and the cyberpunk feel are great. Joey the backtalking robot is a classic character.
I managed to get the CD32 version working on a stock A1200. It wouldn't emulate properly on WinUAE but it runs really well with the CD copied to a real Amiga with a harddrive, and you get fast speech loading. Sadly you don't get the "campfire" intro, just the floppy disk one, but the music and the voices work perfectly.
Only downside is save codes instead of save files, but regardless, I'm really impressed that you can get a game with speech running with only 2MB of RAM. My favourite version.

The CD intro's awfully camp... They should have just kept the floppy/Amiga intro, much more fitting :P
Also, Reich and the recycling plant guard's voice... oh god lol.
One of the best games ever though. I just need to get it for Amiga now =(

The voices are brilliant! Lamb's is the best.
