Recently the free reverse engineered Sega's Outrun binary, has been ported to 68k Amigas but needs explicitly a Vampire accelerator (even the 060 is way too slow).
The engine is rather impressive itself and you can check it in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yVqB13EtZg&t=0s
Basically, it has been ported to 68k specifically to demonstrate the Vampire's gold kernel capabilities and you can read more about it here: http://www.apollo-core.com/knowledge.php?b=3¬e=4767
Anyhow, why spend 300+ euros just for a demo, when you can try and play it on MorphOS? ;)
The idea came to me when I checked that's P96 friendly so I thought to myself, why not give it a go? :)
The P96 drivers for the Vampire and the RiVA video player are the only two programs I know that use AMMX at this time anyway. I'm not surprised that MorphOS runs it. The sound is not the original since that was too difficult to emulate on a Vampire so a PT MOD player was used to substitute for the music.
