The Sentinel is great looking regardless of system. I just really enjoy those simple vector graphics and the weird perspective distortion, and it all really fits with the mood of the game.

For a less controversial pick I guess I'd say Another World.

Wendetta 2175 had good graphics, but it was totally misplaced though.

Flink and KangFu are kind of special in using chipset tricks, at least KangFu does it, not sure how Flink does it's job but it also seems very colorfull and has good character animation.

Both are AGA only too, I love stuff that tried to push the limits of the AGA chipset.

Technically speaking, Elfmania's gfx seemed like that of an arcade coin op. Ditto for Shadow Fighter on AGA - especially after enabling the speed-up hidden mode and you literally can't believe it's an Amiga moving all those things (see the subway level) at that speed!

Hmmm, thats are hard one for me as I never really experienced a massive range of Amiga games as we couldnt afford many when I was younger.

For me I would have to say (in my opinion):

OCS/ECS - Simon the Sorcerer or The Settlers or Superfrog

AGA (native) - The Shadow of the Third Moon or Slamtilt

AGA (ported) - Simon the Sorcerer 2
Escom A1200, Power Tower, OS3.9 & BB2, HD-Floppy drive, Mediator PCI, Voodoo 3 3000 16MB, Soundblaster 4.1, TV Tuner Card, 10/100MBit Ethernet card, Apollo 68060 66MHz with 64MB, 9.5Gig HD and 52xCDRom

Also one spare unworking bare A1200

I really like the graphic style of Ruff N Tumble. Looks AGA, even though it's not. I don't recall it having parallax scrolling though.

Desert Strike had nice graphics too generally better than the Megadrive/Genesis version.

There sure is some cool and good looking games for the Amiga :) It is easy to see that it boosted superior graphics in the 80s, when you look at the other console/computers from that era.
