Although not quite the classic comparison you were probably hoping for, Microcosm on the CD32 was much better (graphically... let's not mention gameplay! ) than the PC, Mega CD, and Philips CDI versions (all versions, in fact, I might have missed one or two though. Was there a 3DO version?).

Every Amiga fan knows that Amiga sucked for Arcade games. But back in 1991 we did not have MAME.
Genesis/MegaDrive, SNES and of course SNK NEo Geo were better

I know it's too late, now...

But I remember:

Gods

Alladin

Cool Spot

Those pc versions are pure crap! You could see the rendering of the screen, bad sound and worse playability. Don't know where to grab them...

As you say rkauer, it's too late now

I remember "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES)" on the PC was pretty bad...

Actually, a great PC vs. Amiga comparison would have been "Another World". It was pretty good on the PC and had extra levels that the Amiga version didn't

It was horrible on the Amiga too, the NES version is the only version with good gameplay as far as I know.

That would've been hard to show in a few seconds long clip

Yes, Pinball Dreams, I'd say too.
But it was superior, not "far" superior, though.

There is a Unreal DOS version. And yes, it's a lame port.
