The Amiga version. Roadwar2000(and Europe) on PC looked crap.

Who made that game? Any chance for a remake?

When you play the game you can go to the city of San Jose and when you do that you go to SSI and meet the game designer, and when you leave the office all sorts of goodies get offered to you. This is a text-only part of the game.

I forget his name, I'll have to catch it next time I make it to San Jose.

Remake ? Don't think so, although it was a really fun game and still is fun in a way. The concept could be adapted of course.

It had a little bit of roleplaying, little bit of strat, little bit of tactical. Post holocaust USA. There was also a Europa version.

Yeah the bus was the best vehicle, but you really needed a mid sized coupe and a sports car or two to keep the rammers busy.

It was "Sword of Aragon" that put the buy me now into the Amiga 500. SSI wasn't porting it to the C=64 (dirty dogs) and I had to have this wonderful rpg wargame. I think it set me back about $300 game and puter together. Was livin in Phoenix Arizona at the time, this is also when I met Dave Landrey from SSI and became a beta tester. The color the Amiga put out was just simply fantastic for its time. Then after that I had a nice run of popular games on the Amiga like Warlords...who could forget the origional Warlords and then came along the ultimate classic of all times "Civilization" then of course Roadwar 2000 made its appearance and one can't forget 'Centurion Defender of Rome". Now, I have a closet full of Amiga 500 games on 3-1/2" floppy discs...oh almost forgot to mention another all time classic for the Amiga 500...WINGS I played this one almost as much as Civilization. I loved Wings I still long for a PC version of it. The music would just set you in the period and the combat engine was FUN not complicated like most flight sims today. The movement to realism an historical accuracy has ruined a lot of gaming at least to me. I remember the days of KISS games, they were fun and enjoyable and didn't require a lot of reading or even tutorials, lol tutorials what were those back in the good ole days...we didn't even have them. THat's how easy games were to get into. ;)
