Generally if your Amiga isn't your main everyday system I figure generally speaking you use your Amiga to play games........

So....what games? What are you favs?

I'll get you going with my top few

The Settlers
Dune 2
Alien Breed
Monkey Island [Both]
Skid Marks
Worms
Dark Seed

Even though my Amiga is my main everyday system and I don't play games very often my all time favourites are...

Deluxe Galaga AGA
The Settlers
The Feary Tale Adventure
Pinball Fantasies
The Lotus Trilogy

This may be a little off topic as I didn't play this one, but ALWAYS wanted to...

Rocket Ranger from CinemaWare. Their games in general always looked cool to me.

Check out this video of the play through.

Ruff'n'Tumble
Virocop
Brian The Lion
North & South
Sensible World of Soccer
etc...

Right now I'm playing:
all series of Pinball and Slam Tilt
The big red adventures
Sensible Soccer, played in 2 is the best game ever
then played in the past:
Turrican all
Superfrog
Cannon Fodder 1-2
Benefactor
Monkey Island 1-2
Cool Spot
Project X
and others..........

I don't have a working Amiga right now, but once I get my A4000T up and running, I can't wait to beat Lion Heart.

It is on the top of my list of games to beat just for the sheer love of the game. I love the graphic and artistic style and the game play reminds me of another favorite, Leander!

I guess I'm just a sucker for sword-wielding side-scrolling heroes.

Another game I think is just awesome but never beat was Perihelion. Really great game that came with ZERO documentation. I was so jazzed by it that I made my own index cards for the "spells" and types of attacks so I knew what I was doing... Truth is, I never beat the first fight.

Sort of on the subject... did anyone ever play "Typhoon Thomson" and if so, how far did you get...

I could never get path the third round as it got pretty hectic after that...

Hard to describe really ... you are in control of a little guy in some sort of rubber dingy out in the middle of the ocean, trying to find lost treasures but are attacked by all sorts of weird blobby things that are out to burst your dinghy and kill you !!!

It's a strange but very playable game with some very neat animated characters and trying to find these "lost treasures" is what keeps you going but it get pretty hectic after the third level...

Might have to make a wee video of it to show you how neat it is...

Just found a video of the Atari ST version, looks identicle except the sound sounds kinda rough on this one...

Cool may have to give that ago!

Always knew you were a bit erm... different in the head but never realised you were totally nuts...

"Alien Fish Finger"...

Have to say meself it's pretty...

Best Amiga Game EVA... "The Faery Tale Adventure"...

XDelusion wrote:Faery Tale Adventure is OK I guess, but it sure ain't no Ultima VI!

Actually The Faery Tale Adventure was pretty naff now that I think about it...

I mean it was pretty jerky one minute then too slow or too fast the next, not too mention the poxy pauses when it had to load the next part of the map from the disk, or getting stuck at the edge of a river or the sea and not being able to get out or even move again...

Still despite these one or two wee flaws, it's still one of the best RPG style games ever made for the auld miggie and it passes a few days if you decide to wander over every bit of land (without the swan) just in case you missed something...

Never did find out what you were supposed to do in "The Mysterious Pixie Grove" up to the northwest... though I'm pretty sure I spotted wee fat Albert the squirrel toddling about there once... but me meds were pretty strong that day...

I never made it all the way through either... Been a long time, prolly longer for you I bet, you had the good fortune of owning an Amiga prior to the early 90's, the dark times, the rise of the Microsoftian (hey cool! iPod accepts that as a real word!!!) Empire.

I remember the controls blowing much ass, but other than that, I didn't write it off as a total failure, it did have it's redeeming qualities too. Besides, it got ported to the NES, and even had a sequel! They must of done something right.

Btw, did you know that Lord British just got back from space on a Russian space shuttle?!?
