@leogets2006 I think the Amiga VS Atari ST debate is still on going lol. Personally I've always preferred the Atari ST.

OMG! Violence before the 90's? xD

[1337fox]

@huynh2er 1987 I believe.

I still remember the music, which payed homage to one of the Conan films.

@Gregz0r1 I was thinking of putting up a video of Barbarian's theme to compliment this video.

Great game indeed! Was the Atari St Version on floppy disk or cartridge?

[rotciv531]

Amiga version is a bit smoother animation.

yes!!! loved this game? but never fineshed the final boss with his "bubbles"

[Retardretroguy]

@1337fox Barbarian is probably the only game that wasn't superior in Amiga. Amiga's audio circuit usually added "balls"

@leogets2006 There is no debate really, the Amiga had much better hardware. The only thing the Atari ST could claim to be better at is MIDI, everything else the Amiga wins hands down.

@1337fox lol was talkin to a few mates about it and we came to the conclusion they were basically the same

I remember being about 5 and somehow managing to pull off the beheading move... It was such a big deal for me XD I was more then likely hitting random buttons on the joystick at the time lol.

I think Muslim extremists too this game too literally!!

What fun times gaming i had as a kid!
