    My favourite thing about the Amiga was sequencing the music modules. You could only have 4 samples playing at the same time, but being able to take instrument samples and modify their pitch/duration in order to compose original music was so awesome.

    It was pretty cool. You could record the sound of an instrument playing a note and then change the pitch of it or you could be more creative and record a group of instruments playing a chord. Or record an entire bassline. It was rather endless, The only rule was you could only have 4 different track playing at once. It doesn't sound like a big deal because you can now do that with any sequencer, but back then it was high-tech.

    I had one of these back in the 90's!

    You MUST get these games:

    Lemmings
    Another World
    Turrican 1 and Turrican 2
    Shadow of the Beast 1 and 2
    Kick Off 2
    Sensible Soccer

    I'm sure there's loads more I can't think of right now.

    I have two brand new Commodore 64s in the box, with the Sear's price tags still on them, as well as a brand new in the box disc drive, as well as a ton of components for them. Don't know what I'm going to do with them, I thought about putting em on EBay and trying to get some bank, I just don't know where to price them honestly.

    Some things need left in the past. I once owned a 1974 Vega and have no desire to own another one.

    I had a Commodore 64 as a kid, but I didn't use it too much. MegaDrives were my thing until the N64 came out. You just can't beat GoldenEye and Zelda!!!

    Yup, some things just need left in the junk pile. The Gremlin fits in that category also except they are fun to go from 40mph forward directly into reverse without so much as a clunk and spin the tires. lol
