F-16 Combat Pilot #5 - Amiga - DOS comparison

I'm getting better, but the enemy keeps shooting me down regularly.  So I, did something different and took a look at some of the conversions to other systems. F-16 Combat Pilot was ported to the following 16bit systems:

  • Amiga
  • MS-DOS
  • Atari ST
and some of the older 8bit systems
  • Commodore 64
  • ZX Spectrum
  • Amstrad CPC
The 8bit systems don't have the fancy graphics as well as some of the functionality. 

Well, here comes the first comparison in the 16 bit field (top: MS-DOS / below: Amiga)

(notice, that in the Amiga version both pilot and the behind-the-desk-guy make a much more professional impression!

(in the Amiga Version the pilot looks left and right and opens/closes his visor)

Next, I will make some screenshots of the 8bit versions.
