I actually really like the Amiga. I've got an Amiga-CD 32 in the closet (currently with a broken disc drive
) But it has some really awesome games for it. The Amiga CD-32 version of Microcosm is really the only one worth playing, even though it's basically unbeatale without cheating. Deep Core and D/Generation are also really, really fucking cool, and outperform just about every sega CD game.
My favorites in the Amiga library are the Psygnosis games, however. No console ports of any of them do them justice. Shadow of the Beast II is jaw-dropping, even today. People wonder why the first SotB was so widely ported when they all blow, but it's because the Amiga version is so amazing.
I also really like Elvira II--the Jaws of Cerberus, though I had trouble playing it in emulation. The crack wasn't working properly. But the aspects of the game I got to see were really cool. It's a combination between Shadowgate and a first-person dungeon crawler like Might and Magic, with a super-creepy setting and awesome soundtrack. All the Horrorsoft Amiga games look awesome. I still haven't tried Waxworks. The PC version is available on goodoldgames.com, but the sound blows in that version.
Of all the 16-bit computers and consoles around, the Amiga had the best sound, even if it underperformed compared to the SNES or Genesis in terms of visuals at times. Still I think the majority of games originally made for the Amiga play best on the Amiga.
