FTL who made Dungeon Master; arguably the best game in its genre.

And yes David Braben's Elite I played for many years on the Speccy and the Amiga.

Whoever was responsible for Populous is worth a mention.

And who cannot forget LucasArts and the Monkey Island games; a classic series of games that are still very much playable thanks to their depth and longevity, excellent humour and engrossing story.

PS: Eye of the Beholder was rubbish in comparison.

Dune 2 was Westwood Studios, personally I preferred the first one.  Inspired me enough to go and rent a video of the movie which was also good.  Odd to see Sting in a film. O.o

So many, Might and Magic I, II and III I played to death.

I spent hours playing SSI's AD&D games; eg. Champions of Krynn, Death Knights of Krynn and a zillion others.

Sierra Online produced some quite amazing games on the Amiga.

Captive from Mindscape was a gem, unique gameplay, fun bouncing the balls of the walls, lovely map designs, unlimited levels I believe as well.  I always remember struggling to work out how to open the first frigging door/portal.

My favourite RPGs have always been on the Amiga never really got in the PC gaming scene, did playable Ultima Online once many years ago.  For the last 5 years I've been playing a turn-based strategy game in a similar vein to all the great AD&D games mentioned above.  Its called Dofus, subscription is dirt cheap about £6 a month.  Probably the best online game fantasy game available on the Mac unless you have a large wallet and love 3d games like the almighty World of Warcraft. - tbh Mac isn't exactly spoilt for choice when it comes to online games.
