Re: Best platform for Ultima 3/4/5?



I like U5 on the C64 the most. The Amiga version had this music playing
that restarted each time you picked an item up. Very annoying when
picking up a lot of food. I'm sure you can turn the music off though,
but I'd still prefer the C64 version. I never played the C128 version
but IIRC it's exactly the same, but with music added.

(also my cracked Amiga version used to corrupt the disk a lot when
saving a game)

U6 on the other hand was terrible on the C64, but great on an Amiga
(provided you ran it of a hard disk, the floppy version had to load new
terrain after every 6 moves or so, with the HD install you did not
notice this). Also the C64 version felt incomplete. A lot of things you
couldn't do on the C64 version, you could do on the Amiga.
