heh sorry its late

ok so not top down, double dragon style i got it now a 'run and gun'

i used to work at team17 hence the 'kick myself' part.

right them, err, can't think of anything. can't remember what was two player or not, turrican ? hyper dyne sidearms, gunstar heros, ikari warriors(that was topdown), cant remember if metal slug was on the amiga.

silkworm was he heli and vehicle, so not that either.

I thought it might be Gryzor at first but then this was just the UK version of the US Contra. How about www.insomnia.ac/reviews/ac/aliens/review.php ?

Nope....NOT Zool...

Little chaps with guns...in a fairly 'normal' environment [ie: not space or fantasy]
but I remember collecting little things to get better guns...

Last soldier

Where they 2 player?.

I do actually remember a game on the Amiga that me and my mate used to love playing.
It played from right to left which was different, they were normal looking blokes and collected power ups iirc.
I had a LOT of amiga games though so i'm buggered if i can remember what it was called lol.

I'm sorry gorvid.

The site you looked through made my eyes water. I had a similar problem, couldn't find the games in there...they I realised that for every letter, there were several pages!

I'm sure you aren't as silly as me, and didn't make that mistake..

Anyway, this site claims to have every amiga game commerically released :

Stryder is not what I meant (taken a good couple of days to remember this one)
