Der 1985 auf den Markt gebrachte Amiga läutete ein neues Zeitalter der Heimcomputer ein. Seine leistungsstarke 16-Bit-Motorola-CPU und seine speziellen Grafik- und Audio-Chipsätze machten ihn zu einem sofortigen Hit sowohl unter Spielern, die ihre 8-Bit-Systeme hinter sich lassen wollten, als auch unter Künstlern und Musikern, die in die digitale Welt einsteigen wollten.

Frühe Titel wie Defender of the Crown, Barbarian und Hybris demonstrierten die grafischen Qualitäten des Amiga, während Arcade-perfekte Konvertierungen von Marble Madness, Space Harrier und Rainbow Islands zeigten, dass der Amiga es mit der Leistung von dedizierten Automaten aufnehmen konnte. Im Laufe des nächsten Jahrzehnts sollte er eine außergewöhnliche Vielfalt an Titeln beherbergen; Spiele wie Rocket Ranger, Populous, Cannon Fodder, Speedball und Worms führten neue Genres ein und trugen dazu bei, die Videospiellandschaft neu zu definieren.

Auf rund 420 Seiten präsentiert Commodore Amiga: a visual compendium mehr als 140 der größten Titel und erweckt sie mit doppelseitigen Bildschirmfotos oder einer Ladeseite anschaulich zum Leben. Jedes Spiel wird von Zitaten und Kommentaren bekannter Amiga-Künstler, -Entwickler und -Publisher begleitet, darunter R.J. Mical, David Braben, Sid Meier, Ron Gilbert, Julian Eggebrecht, Tobias Richter, Dave Gibbons und viele mehr.

Neben den Spielen selbst geht es auch um die Ursprünge der Hardware und die lebendige Demoszene, und es enthält Interviews mit Künstlern und Profile der wichtigsten Spiele-Publisher. In gebundener Form und mit hochwertigem lithografischem Druck auf erstklassigem Papier präsentiert, ist dieses Buch eine wunderbare Feier der grafischen Fähigkeiten des Geräts und eine Erinnerung an die Fülle von Qualitätsspielen, die der Amiga hervorgebracht hat.

WEIRD feature - requires a water bottle
Color: Cow, Size: Large
Cute, but buyer beware. Maybe the description said this, but who would think to read for this.... You have to insert an empty bottle (like an old water bottle) for it to make the crinkle noise. There is a velcro spot at the base where you can open it and insert the water bottle for the noise factor and your dogs entertainment. I've yet to do that, but feel like my dog is gonna figure out the velcro and get the bottle out in no time. Seems like a waste of money. I could just give her an empty water bottle without the toy for free.

Best dog toy!
Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium, Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium
Best dog toy! Most dog toys lady maybe a week or less but this one has been going strong for almost 2 months. Both the squeekers still work on both toys i purchased. My vizsla loves ti squeek and carry it around. We added an empty water bottle in the pocket cavity for some extra fun! Yes, we are still on the same water bottle! Fantastic durability.

Shows wear quickly
Color: Multicolor/Sheep & Cow, Size: Medium
These are cute but not holding up as well as I had hoped. Quality is ok and the Velcro has held up great. The fabric just isn’t as good as it could be. They are much larger than expected.

Super Sturdy with hours of fun.
Color: Wild Duck, Hare, Squirrel & Alligator, Size: Small
I got the small ones that you cannot put a water bottle in. These toys have held up way better than expected. I am dog sitting a very rough with toys dog named Chunk. He tears up ever. Single. Toy my dog (Ted) has. I bought new ones just for chunk. These appealed to me with the no stuffing, They were cheaper, and have a squeaker. Everything chunk needed. They arrived on time and I thought I wasted my money. They were super soft, like too soft. They felt flimsy and weak. Like 5 minutes with chunk and they be dead. 2 hours with my dog and they would have a rip. So far 2 of them (I set two out) have lasted the whole weekend. The bunny looks very rough and disgusting, but no rips, the squeakers still work, and no random fluff everywhere. I am going to wash the bunny once chunk leaves. My very careful doggo Ted loves them too. He throws them up in the air and catches them, plays tug of war with them, and no rips. They are super sturdy. He can’t wait until Chunk leaves (chunk is 2 and Ted is 12-13) so he can play with them.

Loved it
Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large, Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large
He loved it so much, he destroyed it so we ordered another. I didn't realize that you can stick an empty water bottle inside. Again, the first one didn't last long, but he enjoyed it
