Much like it’s pretty pointless deciding whether a game’s getting a score of 72% or 73%, it doesn’t really matter if Rainbow Islands is my 8th or 9th favourite Amiga game. The annoying notes bit which is a tiny bit different from last time However, that said, here are the 30 Amiga games I spent most time with and loved more than any others. On a definitely, honestly unrelated note, I had hundreds of Amiga games (ahem), so choosing just 30 for this list was bloody difficult. It was piss easy to get hold of copied Amiga games, and while developers and publishers suffered as a result there could be no denying it was a big selling point for some would-be customers.
Without beating around the bush, part of the Amiga’s success was down to piracy. Well, that’s just showing offĪlthough I never took sides in the console wars because I was fortunate enough to own them all, when it came to computers I was a staunch supporter of the Amiga, my trusty A1200 providing me with countless hours of entertainment. Oddly, although both were manufactured by American companies, both were arguably more popular in the UK, where the microcomputer market was already booming thanks to the previous generation’s offerings from British companies Sinclair and Amstrad. When these systems died out and were replaced by 16-bit computers, the war evolved and two new competitors stepped forward (because nobody counts the Acorn Archimedes). The ’80s saw a brutal three-way battle between the ZX Spectrum (hooray!), the Commodore 64 (yes, well played) and the Amstrad CPC (hahaha, aye, okay mate). The two biggest wars among gamers – in the UK, at least – were between computer owners, not console owners. The Amiga 500, the first major Amiga model Mega Drive versus SNES? Wouldn’t wipe my balls with it.

If one of your favourites isn’t on the list, feel free to give it a shoutout in the comments below ( politely though, mind) and tell everyone what it meant to you. So yes, I know SimCity and Civilization aren’t on there: deal widdit, as the kids say. In case you missed them, I’ve already covered the 30 best DS games, 30 best GameCube games and 30 best Dreamcast games.Īs before, because this is my own personal list and not a collaborative effort for a magazine or website, there will be some glaring omissions of games I simply didn’t play or didn’t like.
