Slam Tilt is a /great/ pinball game. Very nice music too.
 
@Rednova: Sounds like a great setup for the majority of games. Should run some of the FPS types pretty good too.
 
A few others:
 
Cannon Fodder and Syndicate (both are pseudo-tactical shoot em up type of games. Hard to explain)
 
Space Crusade (board game conversation, turn based space marine tactical game, but again, only seems to work with a cracked version)
 
Lethal Weapon (its kind of a plain platformer, but I enjoyed it a ton)
 
Shadow of the beast 3 (platform puzzler. Very hard but great atmosphere)
 
Walker (big robot thing blasting everything in your path)

Amigo:  My amiga 1200 has a 2 gig hard drive
and a 030/50 accelerator + 16 mb fast mem.
It runs super !!!


That's not enough RAM for Total Chaos AGA (It requires 24 Megs Fast RAM minimum, 32 Megs recommended) but it will run the rest of the games mentioned.

Some more AGA games worth a try:
 
Guardian
Dreamweb
Chaos Engine AGA
Flyin' High
Simon The Sorcerer
Simon The Sorcerer II
Watchtower
XTreme Racing

For some reason, I really didn't like the AGA version of Chaos Engine. But thats jsut me, its still a killer game.
 
I'll toss in recommendations for the AGA version of Alien Breed 2. Tower Assault I believe adjusts to whether you are running OCS/ECS or AGA, so no need for separate versions.

Apidya is really fun. I forgot about it, since for some reason it looks terrible with the scandoubler I use, even though everything else works great.

Nigel Mansell World Championship-there's two Nigel licensed, a crappy one disk version, and a much better two disk version.  I know most won't agree but on a fastish cpu like yours, its the best racing game for an A1200.

Deluxe Pacman

Arcade pool and arcade snooker.

Speedball.

And the king of multiplayer sports: Sensible Soccer, try the newest versions when you get good.

3D FPS: Gloom is fast, original Doom (ADoom is probably the best), Alien Breed 3 D, Nemac IV

Sensible Soccer is extremely much fun in multiplayer. Can even do tournaments and stuff.
