    Back then, did the PC platform feel inferior to the Amiga at the time? I'm in the UK and the Amiga was big here but I always thought the PC was superior and yet, just recently, I read someone else say that around 1994 "the PC starting emerging from under the shadow of the Amiga". I found this surprising because I always thought the Amiga was the underdog.

    I actually had an Amiga as well, and remember inwardly scoffing at the games a friend of mine was playing on the PC in the very early 90s. It couldn't reach the graphical splendor (nor certainly the audio samplings) of the Amiga at the time.

    However, when he first showed me a game what I'd later know to be Monkey Island 2, I gulped. Something about the vibrant visual representation of its graphics and adaptive situational music made me think the tides were shifting. Then Wing Commander came out, and the rest was history.
