Well here is my web page addressing my opinion...
http://members.windfire.net/mikelynn@windfire.net/gaming.html

Boy is that URL long enough.  
IF you do not want to go to the link here are some hightlights.

My BBS concept was drawn from my love of the Bard's Tale series as my Avatar reveals.  

Amiga Gaming Nexus'es (sp?)

Wings - Cinemaware tooking gaming to a new level in general poor Jim Sachs went a bid mad working so hard but but the coding and graphics really stood out on all they did.

UFO: Enemy Unknown aka X-Com still might be the best squad level turn based tactical game

Hired Guns:  Before Doom Amigan's got a headstart
on multiplayer first person shooters..  Ingenious...

Black Crypt - Raven software is still doing Amazing things only for the PC but the Extra Half Brite mode on this game was the first and best I experienced.

Wing Commander - I am a Wing Commander nut on all platforms, I hear the CD version for the Amiga is slightly better than disk version great port!

The Settler's aka Serf City - without it no Foundation.
To me it started it's own genre... RTS for Amiga like
Warcraft but before...

Civilization - another great port of one of the greatest
games of all times...

Both Dune games were different and stand outs and the guys that did Dune II went on to do Command and Conquer.  I wonder how many PC gamers know what they owe Amiga gaming.  

Other not on my list but well deserving of recognition:

Pirates, Lemmings, Out of this world, The Killing Game show, Alien Breed series.  Ishtar series... :-D
