3 days of hardcore amiga gaming lead me to think....

The amiga had many crap games but there's classics that stand out to this day

The ones I find myself playing over and over:

Gloom, Alien breed (all of them), chaos engine, super cars 2, worms DC, Battle isle, historyline, Dune, Turrican  (2 and 3 mainly), Warlords (certainly not up to amiga spec, but a damn fine strategy game), UFO (xcom to you yanks), Lemmings 2, Settlers and a bunch others.

For long term enjoyment, RPG's, adventure games and strategy for the win.

god damn.. can't write one of these lists without hitting submit, and forgetting something. HIRED GUNS!

Theres a decent handful of titles that either benefit from more oomph (dune 2 and frontier:elite 2 spring to mind) or that had provisions for nicer stuff if your machine supported it.

In the latter case, that generally means 2 megs of RAM versus 1 though (Walker and Hired Guns f.x.)

I remember an article in amiga format bemoaning the fact that even an 030 would make far more impressive amiga games possible, but there just wasn't a market I suppose.
