Synopsis

Launched in 1985, the Amiga ushered in a new age of home computing. With its powerful CPU and custom graphics and audio chipsets, it was an instant hit among gamers looking to move on from the eight-bit systems, as well as artists and musicians moving into the digital realm. Over the course of some 420 pages, Commodore a visual Commpendium showcases more than 140 of the biggest titles, bringing them vividly to life with a double-page screen grab or loading page. This is accompanied by quotes and commentary from renowned Amiga artists, developers, publishers and journalists. Presented using high-quality lithographic printing on superior paper stock, this book is a wonderful celebration of the machine s graphics prowess and a reminder of the wealth of quality games the Amiga brought to bear.
