Games where the Atari ST version was.....
...either different from the Amiga version (i.e. RoboCop2), or better.

Overlander was a quite a bit different on the Atari ST. Worse music, poor framerate and the car was blue instead of red.

Pacmania. Amiga version used overscan, ST version playfield was roughly half the screen.

The Addams family looks like it was initially designed for a dual playfield background which was subsequently cut, leaving the Amiga version with no background at all.

addams family amiga has the dual playfield not activated.
Crack Down from Us gold is better on the ST : it has the ending sequence, as well as the full introduction. the Amiga version is a borked job. |

It doesnt have dual playfield it could have a static background, the Atari ST version has a type of parallax but not full scrolling. Theres a thread here http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=72443
I put the static background on one of the levels but the sprite appeared behind the background

I just posted on that thread that I have never seen before... but changing sprites/playfield priority should be just a matter of setting bits on the BLPCNON2 correctly. This maybe isn't that hard to fix. |

I think it would be better to just have 'better' and 'looked better in a different way' otherwise the thread will get swamped, we know there is hundreds of better looking Amiga versions, i'd just rather know which games played better /extra features or looked better on the ST.
Addams Family was a good example, even if the push scrolling was crap. |
