I had a dodgy version of this game and it used to crash on me all the time, but whilst it worked I loved playing 2 players with my brother, TURICAN was another great game from this era. PEACE
@A1R5N1P3R Do you mean a top-down driving game on the Amiga by Team 17? That would be Overdrive mate. Same development team as Assassin i think - Broadhurst/Dalton. Alien Breed(s)/Project-X/Superfrog were the Tadic/Holmes team. Team 17, Factor 5 and Psygnosis really pushed the Amiga to its limits. Great times.
@sidious76 Indeed they did, I'm not sure if it was Overdrive, I remember city maps more than traditional tracks. Although maybe the city maps came later in the game; been awhile since I played it. Only Gods still works on my Amiga2000 ):
@A1R5N1P3R Yeah Gods was another good one. I loved Turrican 1 and 2. Remember Moonstone? With the Knights chopping heads off and all that? Ha, i remember my mum bollocking my dad for buying me and my brother that game lol. I just had a look around and Team 17 did anothet top down racing game that was meant to be really good(i didn't have it though) called ATR - All Terrain Racing. Maybe that was it? Put it in the youtube search bar and check mate.
This game was simply superb..Has anyone been playing the already avaliable PC freeware remake of this game by FlashJester punk?.Been out for years now and i have never stopped playing it!.Plug in a USB gamepad and away you go!..I realy cant wait to see Team-17s remake!!.AMIGA RULEZ FOREVER!!..Such fond memories,thanks for the vid!.
It is Bloody awesome!. I still play it even now. Check out Zombie shooter 2 by Sigma team if you have not already done so, It`s sort of like Alien Breed. A Very good shooter indeed.
The game design for this was written on a napkin. it was drawn with a broken monitor and its got the world record for longest nr1 on hit charts. 60 weeks in a row !
The noise the aliens make when you kill them was taken from when the sound effects guy accidentally recorded an angry screeching peacock. I remember reading that somewhere. Yes, this was a very decent game.
Yup, supposedly Allister went to the zoo to sample noises of animals. He recorded elephants, and at some point a 'bloody peacock' screamed in his mic, which he used.
yes dl4002...my amiga 600 kaputt when i pushed too much the video bar when i was trying to adapt screen resolotion to a friend's tv..what a stupid thing.
Anyway manybe with some notions of electronics i will could repair it.
you could play pong during this game right?

This was the single best game on Amiga 500+. I still love the music from the Superfrog intro.

Only thing bad about the SE is the lacking of a real ending. After battling the breed the credits are a bit of a letdown.

I still have this game, it's about to released on consoles again, an updated top-down shooter. Team17 again at the helm.
But there was a top-down driving game on Amiga I forget the name of... Anyone have any leads or guesses?
A1R5N1P3R 2 years ago
@A1R5N1P3R top down could be Super Cars, Roadkill, Nitro or a handful of toher games

@A1R5N1P3R Was it Nitro by any chance? That was a brilliant top down racer

Team 17 and Amiga Power hated each other back in the day!
retronostalgic 2 years ago
Why was that ?
okee9 2 years ago
Actually i think it was more team 17 hating amiga power than the other way round, due to the magazine giving duff reviews to some of their games...

This game rocks. Have you heard that there is a remake of this game? Google for Alien Breed: Obliteration.

awesome, nothing better than blasting the never ending stream of aliens with some of the best weapons ever seen on the amiga.
They dont make games like this anymore, a true old school classic and one which I would still play if my amiga was still working.
