The music on the CD32 was actually good I thought.  Maybe we'll say they ported SF 1.5.  Seriously all the Amiga version I played were bad in one way or another.  The US Gold one I owned around '92, the playability was pretty decent, but the graphics were just bad.  The later AGA versions had better graphics, but had horrible controls and just plain chunky animations.

This was really the one title I would have loved to have seen done properly on the Amiga back in the day. A totally awesome SFII port "might" have bought the CD32 a little more time.

The 8bit 6502 (the C64 and NES chip) that was in the PC Engine blew the AGA Amiga away as far as a SFII port.  Of course an A1200 should have blown it away. The PC Engine had 8kb of RAM and 64kb of VRAM and it's one of the best ports.  I'm sure there must be some stories as to why the Amiga versions were made so poorly.

Buck Rogers II

and I used to think Warlords II... but I after I seen what they did to warlords 2 I would have settled for Warlords as it was but with different maps and better AI... the editor on aminet did provide some extended game play but still limited.

Oh, X-Wing.

I seem to recall an issue of AmigaWorld rumored that there was an Amiga version of XWing planned.

And while we're on the topic of Star Wars games, even though it was a rail shooter my past self would have loved Rebel Assault on the Amiga.  I remember seeing a report about it on CNN late one night and thought "Damn, sure hope that one makes it over...!"

'course that was only one year before C= tanked and the writing was on the wall even to a starry-eyed 22 year old like myself.
Back away from the EU-SSR!

an awful lot could have been done if developers had marketed more towards even low end 030 machines with a bit more RAM

X-Wing.  I remember an Amiga magazine ran a big headline on the front like "Exclusive! X-Wing on the A1200!" but when I bought the magazine and took it home they had taken a photo of the boxed PC version sitting on top of an A1200.  I was so disappointed.

Any classic games that you wish were released for Amiga?


All Amiga games were classics... :)

However... If I really had to choose I'd say "Wacky Waiters" & "Shoplifter" from the Vic 20 should be done, now they were real classics... :lol:
