Same here, superb game

Also metioned above Carrier Command, spent hours on that at a time as a kid.

Keys just don't hack it with already-hard shoot-em ups.

I can fully recommend the X-arcade stick

My garage has just been converted for my office/games room and as soon as I have decorated it my Amiga is coming out the loft and being set up for some retro gaming

I've still got my A500 in the loft along with hundreds of games, a 100Mb hard drive (

I know....a hard drive on an Amiga!!

) and expanded to a whopping 6Mb of RAM!

Pity it doesn't work properly any more

Just crashes for no reason and the power light flashes. I had it fixed once before but it broke again after about a year.

Anyone out there still repair these?
