Here are some that weren't mentioned:

Ruff'n'Tumble
Virocop
Brian the Lion

All had incredibly nice graphics, sound, and gameplay. Never released on any platforms other than Amiga.

Awesome game. Excellent graphics, catchy tunes and you got to destroy stuff. I'd say the best games were Gods and Cannon Fodder.

P.S If anyone owns STUN Runner get the WHDLoad patch for it. On a 68030 with fast memory it actually becomes quite playable.

The most known Amiga game at least here is Sensible Soccer. I remember when entering a computer club some years back, all the Amigas were running Sensible Soccer and it was played almost all day long, with few exceptions to other games. It's still popular even today. Sensible Soccer was released on other platforms as well, but it didn't get that popular there, by my experience.

Well, the "BEST KNOWN" amiga games would most likely not be my favourites.. :-P  But i would say:

Sensible Soccer
Turrican series
Monkey Island I & II
Moonstone
Shadow of the beast
Another world
Lemmings

And

North & South

Well..

so many Amiga games ended up ported to the vastly more popular 16bit consoles, so its bloody hard coming up with an exclusive that's also well known.

Personally, I think the hiscore music from -Risky Woods- is pretty damn good.

When I ever think of Lemmings I think PC.

For me the games I think of when I think Amiga are:
Flashback
Zool, II
Worms
Chaos Engine

The games that are really Amiga-ish, are:
Settlers
Cannon Fodder (2)
Turrican (2)
Lotus (2, 3)
Supercars (2)
Speedball (2)
Gods
North&South
Shadow of the Beast
Chaos Engine
Alien Breed (2, 3d)
Monkey Island (2)
Defender of the Crown
Moonstone
Xenon 2
Zool (2)
Superfrog

But for the "Icon of the Amiga" I'd say Guybrush Threepwood from Monkey Island
(That game really shows what the Amiga is: a game computer, rather than a gameconsole - point 'n click with mouse and savegame ability)
And the canary said: \'chirp\'

That's one tricky question considering how good alot of public domain efforts were back in the Amiga's hey-day. But I'm gonna give it a shot anyways  :-P

*Turrican series
*Last Ninja 2
*Alien Breed series
*Worms The Director's Cut (If you're gonna list it, then why not the definitive version?  :lol: )
*Leisure Suit Larry 1 (Remake; I have the theme as a ringtone!)
*Bloodnet
*R-Type
*Shadow Fighter CD32 (The intro music was pretty atmospheric)
*Syndicate
*Superfrog
*Robocop 3
*Flashback
*Cruise For A Corpse
*Beneath A Steel Sky CD32 (In my opinion the definitive)
And most of the games mentioned above my post  :lol:
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and looked from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which
