I tried the C128 version of Ultima 5, but it seems to be far worse than the Amiga one. Which has the better music is a matter of opinion (I prefer the Amiga music), but the graphics on the Amiga version are considerably better, there is much less disk access/swapping, and better controls.

Amiga version will run slower than intended if using PAL, it is designed for NTSC.
