They had the full 3 screens at the arcade I went to, too. They also had Tekken running on one of those gigantic rear-projection screens that people thought were good in the 90s but look stupid now. Those were the days... :mrgreen:

My favorite arcade game from back then was...

Lol me neither, but if they're all from old arcade machines, that's probably why ;).

Ameena's reminds me of a PC game a friend of mine used to play in the 90s, but a) i'm not all that sure it's the same one i'm thinking of... and b) can't remember the name anyway.

Can't seem to sneak one past Gambit at the moment... Right again! Mine was indeed

Here's another pic from the same game...it is from the '90s and I can't really think of any other games i've played that looked like this, so you might be thinking of the right one, Saumun ;).

Actually there was a quake like clone in the works at the end of life.. and graphically it was equal to the quake of the time.. but it only made it to demo stage. I think they just wanted to prove it could be done.. after that doom was converted over and I played it on the a3000 and an a4000 aga.

Doom on an A3000 (i.e., without AGA) must have looked... interesting.

Even with AGA, i remember having to play stuff like Alien Breed 3D in a very small window for it to be decent (though i had an a1200, not the a4000). I recall playing Heretic on a friend's pc around this time and thinking, hmmm.... maybe time to change.
