What are your favourite Amiga games?
Im after a list of what everyone thinks are the best Amiga games ever made,
of all main genres (or not!)- mainly officially released games, although if there are any retro remakes id like to hear about them also. Ideally this list would mainly include games that either only came out on the Amiga, or in which the Amiga had the best version/conversion, to show what really set the system apart from the rest. If necessary seperate lists of the best 500, 600 and 1200 models are welcome, or lists of your top platform games for example. I'd look for websites that state the same 'Amiga game top 100's', but Id like to hear people talk about why, rather than just looking at one simple list  I never had an Amiga so im interested.. if anyone can help

There are many simillar topics, and as others, this one will be biased and opinion based...
I liked: Superfrog Flashback Lionheart The Settlers Battle Isle Cannon Fodder (both) Sensible Soccer (both) Colonization Civilization Mr. Nutz ... ... ... List goes on....

Meh, I'm game anyways.
Wing Commander was the game top of any of my personal lists in those days. After that the Kings Quest, Police Quest, and SPACE Quest series came in close. |

I remember playing the Atari ST version of Street Fighter II, which seemed to have individual discs you had to load up for most characters and stages. zzzzz. around 10 or so in total. Ah well, I guess any disc was probably better than my ZX Spectrum cassette player.. maybe. Well the game probably was better anyway, haha- I'm sure SFII came out officially on that also! speccy SF2! click here! http://www.mobygames.com/game/zx-spe...ii/screenshots |

Tough one...
All in all i'd have to say Alien Breed 3D. Controversial but it meant I didn't feel left out when all my PC owning friends were raving about Doom. It also meant that I could say that my lowly Amiga could do 3D games too

Sensible Soccer, I still play it today and it still gets my pulse racing.
You try getting Iceland to win the European Championship.

Oh yes, Sensible Soccer, I spent weeks on that game.
For me its: Rainbow Islands (I still play this on a regular basis) Sensible Soccer Alien Breed (All) Full Contact Lemmings X-Project Jurassic Park AGA Another World Flash Back To be honest, I pretty much love 90% of the Amiga games. Even to this day, they might not have todays graphics but they have the most important factor that todays games miss out and thats GAMEPLAY. |

I'd like Sensible Soccer on my GBA or DS right now! I would be very upset if they tampered with the original, so its probably most likely to appear on a Codemasters Classics volume 1 cart release alongside Fantasy World Dizzy. ie- not that likely  -*sob!*!!!!!

My favorites have to be Lemmings and the Monkey Island games. Perhaps others that I can't think of right now.
