I always thought it was the limited 3D power of the system that prevented it from running full 3D games. Maybe severely cutdown Doom-like versions.  Additional storage does add a lot of possibilities.For example: Defender of the Crown (original Amiga disc based version from 1986) http://youtube.com/watch?v=cvW6okgy4wA Defender of the Crown (CDTV version, CDTV was technically an A500 + internal CD player) http://youtube.com/watch?v=Af0vFi4sSzw Sadly the A1200 did not come with an internal CD ROM drive, thus many CD32 games only took 1/700th of the space available on the CD as they were mostly just the A1200 version placed on CD. Another example would be the c64, most early games took only a single (lenghty tape) load, but later more impressive games like Turrican or Enforcer: Fullmetal Mega Blaster were disc based and loaded different levels one at a time: Enforcer: Fullmetal Mega Blaster: http://youtube.com/watch?v=DJPoFuIks-A Turrican: |
You were responding to a comment about GAMEPLAY, not content. Does DotC have more GAMEPLAY in the CD-ROM version?
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
