Hi Curtis,

The Amiga is an old computer platform and much more simpler compared
modern PCs.  Amiga users spent many years adding and enhancing their
systems to keep up with advancements.  Because the stock Amiga hardware
did not advance much beyond the original chip set games did lag
behind what was available for PCs by the mid 1990s.

The Amiga community will continue supporting the users from the
Commodore years who are already aware of the platforms limitations and
help newcomers who are interested in our little corner of computer
history.

Sorry that your experience was not what you hoped.

Best wishes
Pierre
