Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

1. Game from 1991, played on my amiga 500
2. Sports game
3. One of these three guesses is the almost correct developer: Touchdown Fever, John Madden, Roller Babes.
4. You don't know Jack.
5. Think out of the box.
6. Another one of those games that had a different name in the states as compared to the isles. I'll accept either.
7. And in this corner....another wrong answer.

Got spare money?

Ding, ding....

I was actually thinking of ABC Wide World of Sports Boxing...but it was released in Europe as TV Sports Boxing.

I can't post the weblink I got this from, the mods would frown on it.
quote:

ABC's Wide World of Sports BoxingABC's Wide World of Sport Boxing is essentially the same game as Cinemaware's TV Sports Boxing, with the added chrome of Dan Dierdorf, sportscaster of ABC Sports channel. From my review of TV Sports Boxing on this site:

"Cinemaware ended its acclaimed TV Sports series on a high note, with a game that remains one of the best boxing games ever made. TV Sports Boxing lets you create your own boxer from a wide range of body color, hair color, trunks color, and boxing style. You start with a fixed number of skill points which are used toward selecting you boxers skills, which include punching power, stamina, conditioning, strength and cuts. You start with a team of trainer and promoter. When you make money from winning bouts, you can hire better trainers and promoters.

Your goal is to fight your way to higher rankings and eventually champion. Your promoter will suggest opponents, but you can accept or decline hoping for a different opponent. The higher ranking your opponent is, the more money you make from a fight. Win a fight and your ranking will go up, lose and it will go down. The fighting itself is a lot of fun and requires skills as well as reflexes. You learn what your opponents weaknesses are and exploit them. The boxers are represented on screen with excellent digitized players who display convincing motion when they swing hooks or uppercuts, and it is easy to tell when your boxer is taking a beating.

With fluid animation, lots of atmosphere that is Cinemaware's hallmark, great control interface, and a wide variety of opponents that truly use different boxing styles, TV Sports Boxing is a must play for every boxing fan." In short, if you haven't played TVSB, this ABC Sports edition is a better choice as it is the same game, but updated with more features and real-life boxers. If you have already played TVSB, then there is little reason to play this edition except to hear Dan Dierdorf's voice.
Aside from the fact that it was released two yesrs earlier...according to Standup.

And this one has the year:

Must have been the UK release was delayed - I guess ABC Wide World of Sports wouldn't mean much to a European audience. Often the case we get games later than the States.

New game tomorrow (well technically later today)

2. Butcher, baker and candlestick maker ? Well no but there is a miller.

3. Berg, Brickfielder, Reshabar? not really but Mistral ? well i'd think so.

I forgot so now i'm twiddling my thumbs and don't know what to guess.

don't remember lots of bricks but i don't have the game box anymore so couldn't be sure. There was a yellowish, purple, brownish, brick ? colour style and theme to the graphics though that could just have been the Amiga's limited palette.

blasphemy!! stone him!! the amiga was one of the first super colourful home computers(well the atari800 could use tricks to display 256 on screen at once- as shown in my Alternate reality thread in classic games(plug!) ) - it(the amiga) had a pallette of 16,000 colours(IIRC).

I liked the detail of the food model for the type of game it was, its on the tip of my fingers........grrrrr.... frustrating as i'm away untill thursday after today.

Edit: i remembered it - bad thing is it was for PC only oh well
