Trademark protection: Cloanto withdraws opposition against Intellivision's Amico
After being forced by third party to defend the Amiga trademarks against Intellivision's "Amico" game console, Cloanto now filed a motion to withdraw their opposition at USPTO with prejudice, meaning that the opposition is replaced by a separate agreement between the parties, which prevails (PDF file).
On Twitter Amiga Corporation commented: "Amiga and Amico both mean friend. To stop any speculation: we had a productive exchange about coexistence, and concerns were resolved. Amiga wishes Intellivision all the best for its entertainment project."

AmigaOS 4: Comparison of video players (Polish)
In a detailed article - Polish original bzw. automatic translation - the author 'MUFA' has reviewed the different video players available for AmigaOS 4: Tested with an AmigaOne X1000 equipped with a Radeon HD R9 270 graphics card and an AmigaOne X5000 equipped with a Radeon RX 560 graphics card. Test candidates has been on the one hand the free MPlayer and FFPlay as well as the two commercial players DvPlayer and Emotion. He also has include in his consideration the support of the Unified Video Decoder (UVD).
Verdict: As of now, he recommends Emotion for overall performance. He awards second place to MPlayer for the best player without UVD support as well as its exemplary stability and free availability. Only in third place he sees DvPlayer, whereby he points out that with Hans De Ruiter a proven expert is entrusted with the further development and he therefore expects a lot from future versions.

Text adventure: "Darkest Hour" released
Darkest Hour is an old-fashioned text adventure game, available for several platforms and also for AmigaOS 3.
Die Story: "Halloween is almost here, but something is happening that's much scarier than the annual haunted house at the fire hall. There are rumors of a vampire - a real one - attacking people at night. Of course most people think it's just silly; who wouldn't? But people are going missing, and others swear they've seen it. It's up to you to track down this vampire, stop it if possible. The question is, will you even survive the night?"

GitHub project: Amiga 4000 accelerator board 'Z3660'
On GitHub the developer 'shanshe' has started a project for the Amiga 4000 accelerator board 'Z3660' which is based on John "Chucky" Hertell's A3660 board as well as the Z-turn Board. In contrast to the A3660 (currently) only 060 CPU are supported. If Z-turn FPGA is not used, then you get a simple A3660. The only difference is that all A3660 PLDs are replaced by a XC95144XL-TQ144 CPLD. If you use a Z-turn FPGA, then you can add 128 MB of CPU RAM (more RAM, RTG, AHI, USB, SCSI are planned in the future).
