This is the GameBase Amiga project. GameBase Amiga is a collection of data and scripts to be used with the GameBase emulator frontend. It allows you to browse games with screenshots and a lot of extra information and run them with the WinUAE Amiga emulator with ideal pre-defined settings for a hassle free playing experience.

The x264 codec ensures that even at 720p, the fast-paced action—like Wax leaning out of a speeding car with a rocket launcher—remains sharp and free of major compression artifacts.
Shot on 35mm film with Arricam ST and LT cameras , the movie features a gritty, "filmic" grain that is preserved well in high-definition transfers. The 2.35:1 widescreen aspect ratio captures the frantic choreography of the gunfights and the iconic Parisian backdrops.
The film follows James Reese (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), an ambitious aide to the U.S. Ambassador in Paris who moonlights for the CIA on low-level assignments. His dream of becoming a "bona fide" agent comes true—or perhaps becomes a nightmare—when he is partnered with Charlie Wax (John Travolta), a foul-mouthed, bald-headed loose cannon sent to stop a terrorist cell.
As Wax leads Reese on a violent, 48-hour "shooting spree" through the Parisian underworld, the duo uncovers a plot far more personal than Reese ever imagined. Technical Excellence: The 720p Blu-Ray Experience
For fans of high-octane cinema, remains a cult favorite for its unapologetic, "trigger-happy chaos". Directed by Pierre Morel—the man behind the original Taken —this film trades gritty realism for explosive, over-the-top energy, anchored by a career-high eccentric performance from John Travolta. The Story: Wax On, Wax Off
This specific release often features a DTS-HD Master Audio or standard DTS track. The sound design is a highlight, with every gunshot and explosion delivered with a punchy, immersive dynamic range that tests any home theater setup.
While many collectors opt for the full 1080p release, the encode is a popular choice for balancing file size with visual fidelity.
