While I understand the many people who have said this is a difficult question, for me it's easy:  Archon.  I first played this on the Atari 800 and then on the Amiga.  Recently I discovered that there's a decent version of Archon for the iPhone now!  Woohoo!

I always loved "Oil's Well" for the C64.

I just found a copy of Ardy the Aardvark (I don't know which came first, Ardy or Oils Well). The game play is the same)

And, I just re-discovered Wings on the Amiga (yet again) - great game.

Impossible for me to choose just ONE!  
By platform is a bit easier.

C64:  Myth
Amiga: Syndicate
PS1: Castlevania SOTN
Xbox: Morrowind
360: OrangeBox

I've never used a PC as a games machine but I did use my first computer, a ZX Spectrum, for games. My favourite of all time on that was Fighter Pilot in which you were the pilot of an F15 Eagle. You had to protect 4 airfields called BASE, ZULU, DELTA and TANGO from enemy bombers. Obviously if all the bases were bombed you would have nowhere to land and would run out of fuel and crash. So you had to keep scrambling up to dogfight with the enemy bombers and keep landing to refuel using a proper ILS (Instrument Landing System) OMG! It's on YouTube :)

My favourite Amiga games would be  games like T-Zer0, ProjectX and Super Stardust. But I also like the simple ones like Battle Chess and TanX too :)

My all time favourite is The Settlers (on Amiga of course). It's still as addictive as it ever was. :)

I've recently dowloaded and played a very good and addictive game called Flight Control for the iPhone and iPod Touch.....



My highest score so far is 135 :banana:

Anyone here got higher than that?

Wipeout 2097 was ported to warpos later,i dont consider this an 100% amiga game,it is something different.Also the simcity 2000 was faster on amiga running shapeshifter 68k mac emulator than on the native amiga,(and mac too!) that's the crazy stuff,an amiga port of the same game was slow and the emulated one was good...

Wipeout 2097 on the Amiga was probably the worst of all the ports of the game. It was still good, don't get me wrong, but lacked some stuff which I really couldn't understand omitting, like a league type game and being able to unlock extra tracks or courses. You played your single race and that was it. Shame really, those sort of features aren't down to CPU power or anything...

I've liked a lot of games but for some reason this simple concept for a game just got me addicted so I might as well call it my favourite:

Cannon Fodder
