The Best 25 Commodore Amiga Games Ever! (well my favourite)

This is the first episode of many where I showcase my favourite games for a retro system that I believe have aged very well...
For example I love Elite however I feel if I didn’t grow up with it I would probably struggle to get into it today.
Please feel free to comment your favourite Commodire Amiga games as I’m trying to achieve the ultimate Amiga games collection, your input means a lot.

Ah so many good memories .i remember when i let my older brother play Pinball Fantasies on my Amiga 500 .And the ball got stuck (u could use spacebar to tilt /push ) i lost it when he tapped the monitor to try and get the ball moving again 😂

[@Sinisteve]

Haha amazing😂😂

[@cri3894]

Used to let my Amiga on for days because of Beat Box table with extra balls. 😁

[@grzestelicki]

For me, rised in late 80's and early 90's in Poland seeing original boxes of Amiga games is something special. We didn't see original games back then in PL:)

[@Sinisteve]

I was quite lucky that I got quite a few games when I was younger, used to keep all the boxes under my bed until I stupidly threw them all away🙈🙈(I was only around 14)glad I replaced them all and a lot more before the prices went a bit crazy

[@szlkok]

my father brought me some games from his friends, large stuff. I didn't see oryginal boxes too. Regards from Rybnik

Miguel Silva kick off 2 is more of a pinball game than football😂

[@MiguelXisto1]

@@Sinisteve haha. Kick Off 2 took so much skill to master. I loved that game. I miss the Amiga. I spent a whole year nagging my dad to buy me one. I even had a poster of an Amiga in be bedroom so, everytime my dad or mom entered I immediately put on my sad face as to show them how miserable I was for not having an Amiga. Haha. I did that the whole year until school finished and my grades allowed me to have one. The first day I played until 3 am which was The Thing as I was a little kid. I know it's a stupid story but I think it was the happiest day of my childhood. Great memories. Also, KK2 IS the best! :p Cheers mate

LOVE the Amiga so much! glad people are still into it! some great games here! not my best 25, but still some good ones, thanks for the upload. Long live the Amiga lol

[@Sinisteve]

You’ve got to suggest your favourites, that’s the idea, I’ll then check them out👌🏼😉 Thanks for watching👍

[@greenkitty82]

StayCoolKeto I agree. I absolutely loved the Amiga as a child and have so many great memories from it that I would never part with it. It's so much fun to dip back into it now and then when I have time to take me back to that warm place!

[@StayCoolKeto]

@@greenkitty82 Yes, and with he world as it is now, I bet it brings back great times! I have an Amiga 600 and 1200 back in England with 100s of discs and games both copied and originals! I really wish I had it here! I'm worried the battery has leaked! Looking forward to seeing them again lol. What amiga have you got?

[@greenkitty82]

StayCoolKeto I have the cartoon classics Amiga 500+ that came with lemmings but my absolute favourite game is the secret of Monkey Island. I had so much fun with the console and that game (and the early 90s always seemed more care free and simple) that I stood firm that I would never part with it as it's important to cherish things that make you really happy. I'm looking to track down some old games I did part with overtime to relive some memories but we did have a few originals in the boxes and most of the games we had were copies from the carboot sale. That was ok though as they worked fine and also saved on space so we had many to enjoy! I love seeing that people as adults still enjoy the console 😁

[@Tech-geeky]

I'm still looking for all games for use on Amiga emulators like Winuae.. and all cover disks.... from most Amiga mags... Internet Archive seems to have most but not all in one huge file.

[@ZWGamemasterGame]

Amiga was and is such an amazing machine.

[@raymoreton3184]

Agreed, I had a 500+ as a teenager I now have a 1200 with a brand new case and set of( keys on the way) I have burnt my own Kick ROM's for it for OS 3.1.4 so I don't have to install the trick to make something work, my copyright date when I boot it up is 2018 it looks pretty good.

[@ZWGamemasterGame]

@@raymoreton3184 wauw that is amazing.

[@raymoreton3184]

@@ZWGamemasterGame Because of the type of plastics they used make stuff with they always go nasty yellow so I found people on youtube talking about their brand new looking cases and people used to retrobright their keys to make them match but they eventually go back and it can lower the strength of the plastic so I just left mine, then the same people who did the case started their second campaign for new keycaps and springs, so I thought I to get some of those, the plastic will never yellow they have also improved the design of the original things like adding vents to the trapdoor metal screw holders instead of the original plastic ends up going weak, I added myself to the 2nd key-cap campaign feb 2019, they were due to be shipped in jan because they are wanting to improve the labels design from the 1st campaign, now they have been caught in the coronavirus they have been delayed even more, going to be worth it when they arrive though. I forgot to say when I brought the 1200 the guy had 2 for sale a cheaper one with 4MB memory on the accelerator card and one with 8MB, I brought the 4MB one because I was going to add the extra RAM myself but I got the 8MB card.... :O)

[@raggeragnar]

In a perfect world , an Amiga-mini would be released with 50 games of your own choice.

[@Sinisteve]

Trouble is with an Amiga mini is that it would need a working keyboard imo, never been a fan of onscreen keyboards...then it won’t be so “mini”

[@raggeragnar]

Sinisteve Retro Gamer : When you’re right , you’re right. But I’m sure they could redesign it and release it in a , kind of , A600-style. Without the numeric keypad , but with a simplified mouse and joystick. Replaceable with more sturdy ones for those who wish to pay for the priviledge.

[@OSLP]

Hi Sinisteve! Although I did not own a Commodore Amiga in my youth (my cousin did though) I love watching those compilation videos. There are some hidden gems on these 'older' systems I might have yet to find out; recently I have been watching a lot of C64 gameplay haha. Some of those Amiga games luckily also found their way to the PC, so I'm not totally out of the loop I guess. Anyway, thank you for the video! Greetings, Ossel

[@Sinisteve]

Thanks for watching matey, I did do a top 25 for c64 too kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZC8dXmElshglZo My nostalgia glasses were firmly on whilst choosing the games though😂

[@MrFrog_]

Superfrog!!

[@AmAtAm]

Really good video and very interesting to see your choices, thanks for sharing them. It’s not an easy exercise when there are so many classics on the system. The fact there’s no room for the likes of Chaos Engine, Monkey Island, Flashback, Another World, Wings, Lotus 2 etc just shows how difficult it is. Different tastes and nostalgia for different stuff means everyone would have a slightly different list and that’s what makes it so interesting I suppose. I’ve never been that keen on single screen platformers (Pang, Rodland etc), at least since Bubble Bobble on the 8-bits, so that would have freed up some room for others in mine.

[@Sinisteve]

W B ah it was a ridiculous task to be honest....I might do a follow up video of the 10 games that could of made it...Lotus was close, great for its time, still amazing music but game a bit meh these days, same goes for supercars Thanks for Watching👍

[@SR-kv1ic]

Turrican 2 ..... one of the best games ever . Great fun topples with amazing music 👍

[@Sinisteve]

Simon R completely agree, I really wanted that Turrican release on vinyl but it was stupidly expensive

[@Debbiebabe69]

Jochen Hippel. Turrican 2 is probably his 2nd best ever score (after Amberstar of course). He is probably one of the 3 greatest computer music composers, along with Ben Daglish and Ron Hubbard.

[@Sinisteve]

Debbiebabe69 love Rob Hubbards work, Monty in the Run on the c64 is probably my favourite all time gaming score

[@worldsendace]

@@Debbiebabe69 turrican wasnt Hippel. IT was Chris Hülsbeck.

[@Debbiebabe69]

@@worldsendace ahhh.. Hippel did the ST version of Turrican (as well as Badcat and Giana Sisters), with Huelsbeck doing the Amiga version. As an Atari owner in that era, I only remembered the Atari composers....

[@mattpotter8725]

@@Sinisteve Kick Off 2 and SWOS should both have been in this list. I loved both of them. One shouldn't just be excluded because of the other. You included multiple platform games for example. Cannon Fodder should have been much higher in my opinion. There was strategy to it, not just pure running and shooting as made out in your screenshots. I know you only included games you owned, but Prince of Persia and Another World should have been on this list (Syndicate also rings a bell). I can only assume you didn't own it. There are some seriously bad games on this list though. Also I can only assume you didn't like racing games as I loved OutRun, Chase HQ, and Lotus Turbo Challenge, or Microprose's Formula One Grand Prix (which I played with against my friends).

[@Sinisteve]

Matt Potter syndicate was on the cutting list purely because of the really juddery scrolling I don’t think it’s aged great, don’t get me wrong it’s a great game but if you didn’t grow up with it I think it’ll be a hard one to go back to... Lotus probably should’ve been on there but definitely not Outrun and Chase Hq! They were absolutely terrible ports, and I did grow up with them too, I loved the arcades back in the day and I’ve owned Chase Hq and still own an Outrun and the Amiga versions are unplayable...obviously only my opinion and if we all had the same it would be a boring world.. What bad games are on there if you don’t mind me asking?

[@Jaminskii]

well watching this has reminded me of so many childhood games i acutally forgot about ...!

[@Sinisteve]

Thanks for watching

[@paulleach8949]

Had the 1200 was magic loved the football games for so many great memories from that time cheers

[@xtof1er]

so much memories!!!

[@andrewferguson7762]

Had a chuckle ah the memories, super frog was one of my all time faves.

[@Sinisteve]

Yeah same here, great game Thanks for watching

[@Britonbear]

I loved pinball games on the Amiga. Haven't played that 'genre' in years; I think I'll look a game up for a blast from the past.

[@FilipiVianna]

Thanks for sharing. I loved Turrican II.... I've just missed Desert Strike in this list.

[@Sinisteve]

I always preferred desert strike on mega drive as it was easier to fire other weapons with the 3 button pad

Subbed soon as I saw the Sinisteve graphic, used to sneak in to the local bowling alley fire exit (no kids without adults bowling) to play their arcade games & Sinistar was my favourite, we're talking early 80s so got plenty of smacks of the security guards but it was worth it, had an Amiga too! Great memories!😁

[@Sinisteve]

That’s awesome, I remember being a bit scared when I 1st saw the arcade cab😂 Sinistar was scary as fuck haha

[@lpgibbo7463]

@@Sinisteve hi res graphics & state of the art voice sampling(for the early 80s!!!) brought old skull nut to life!! The coins I shoved into that machine along with Gauntlet, Tron, Combat School, Enduro Racer . . the list is endless! Great times 😊😊

[@Beaps73]

Production overload, well make vid mate, pretty much spot on but I would of included both Xenon's with the first being no1. Also Chaos Engine, Wizball and Bubble Bobble would be in there.

[@Sinisteve]

Beaps73 I was trying to mix up genres...Bubble Bobble was on the cutting list, but I just prefer Rainbow Island and Rodland, same as Chaos Engine...Alien Breed pipped it And surely you can’t tell me the slow and sluggish Xenons are better than the other 3 shooters I have on there😉😂

[@Beaps73]

Not a fan of Rainbow Island, probably because I don't get it. Xenon easy top 3

[@Sinisteve]

Beaps73 I won’t argue with you on your birthday 😘

Some great games in that lot, slam tilt is awesome, I actually own most of them games now since the making of this video, although lion heart I only own the disk, stunning graphics

[@cessnaace]

Blaze Entertainment recently announced that they would be releasing Amiga collections for the Evercade beginning in 2023. As I don't own an Amiga this is great news for me. They've thus far released 300+ games for Evercade as part of Arcade, Computer, and Console/Handheld collections. So far this has included games for the Atari 2600, 7800, Lynx, Nintendo NES, SNES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Intellivision, Sega Master System (as a hidden game on the Evercade Vs console; there're several that have been discovered thus far for various systems), Mega Drive, and Commodore 64. All cartridges are multicarts holding between 7 and 20 games each (one only has two). They have three lines of carts. Console/Handheld (Red cases), Arcade (Purple cases), and Computer (Blue cases). They are compatible with their original handheld models, the new EXP model handheld, and the Vs console. And no, I'm not a shill for Blaze, I merely collect and play the carts.

[@HaileMecael]

this was the golden age of pure gaming in my book

[@Sinisteve]

Yeah loved it!

[@Tech-geeky]

Golden Axe yep.

[@electro_manolin]

I love it Amiga, its my favorite PC of 90s decades. I bought the Amstrad CPC, but my neighbor has the Amiga and was wonderful years 😍😍😍

[@Sinisteve]

My best mate had a CPC with an awful green monitor back in the day...when we got an Amiga we couldn’t get rid of him haha

[@turricanrocks1552]

One word: *Turrican*. Seriously. I LOVE the Turrican series! The music is beyond epic!

[@turricanrocks1552]

Growing Perspective don't worry. I won't buy that sh*t :)

[@turricanrocks1552]

Growing Perspective thanks. :) And if you want a good system to mod. Get an SNES Classic.

[@turricanrocks1552]

Growing Perspective I feel sorry for your loss. It's a good mini console. No doubt. But some games are missing. Like Phalanx. Super Turrican 1&2. Earthworm Jim 1&2. Chrono Trigger.

[@turricanrocks1552]

Growing Perspective yeah. That's annoying. At least I have an emulator.

[@Sinisteve]

Sony Sucks yeah turrican is a classic!! Could’ve easily had all 3 on here

[@pnvgordinho]

There were many amazing games. Some that you didn't pick: Hired Guns, Ruff n Tumble, Chaos Engine, Toki, Zool 2, Jim Power.

[@Sinisteve]

I do own hired guns but never played it, I didn’t own Jim Power before making this video but I do now and would definitely make the top 50... I might go on to make my top 100 as my mind changed daily😂chaos engine and ruff n tumble were so close to getting in this video, as was syndicate

[@bdoeden64]

@@Sinisteve Psygnosis also did a game called Blood Money which should have been on the list just for the music (kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3jZqqJ-m9Coa7c). Of the games you presented, Lemmings would have been number 1 for me. Also, I would have included games like: Reach for the Stars (Turn based strategy), Cyber Empires (Mech builder / real time combat / Turn based strategy game), Dungeon Master / Chaos Strikes Back (RPGs), and Battle Chess (Normal chess + combat animations :)).

[@daxxravebusters]

So much stuff to remix. ♡

[@rayraysworld]

oh maaan. some amazing games on here. inspired me to get my Amiga out but can't get it to work yet on the new style TVs.

Pick yourself up an old crt, you’ll never be happy with Amiga gaming on a new tv😉thanks for watching

[@simonwebb1216]

Cannon Fodder is such an epic game! I really wish someone would re release a proper version! Can you still download any versions for the PC?

[@Sinisteve]

Simon Webb just play the Amiga version on your pc via winuae👍

[@sviru007]

Flashback, Another World , Theme Park and Settlers missing!

[@greenkitty82]

sviru007 and The Secret of Monkey Island!! 🐵🌴❤️

[@wilrivera2668]

... I am glad you included moonstone. You should have shown the battle with the big red dragon's head. The cinemaware basketball game was quite good too ... so was the game with a bunch of gangs in New York city ...

[@Sinisteve]

I captured all the footage myself and it was taking far too long when I got into a game, think I played buggy boy for over half hour for a minutes footage😂imagine how long I would’ve been playing moonstone for to get there lol Yeah tv sports basketball was great back in the day, not sure it’s aged great though Thanks for watching

[@SecretOfMonkeyIsland784]

Psygnosis were the kings when it came to doing beautiful paralax scrolling effects and video game box artwork

[@Sinisteve]

100% That’s why the majority of their games are still so sought after, I’m going for a full set myself, around 15 needed I think, the artwork is amazing

[@SecretOfMonkeyIsland784]

@@Sinisteve Yep, i miss the box artwork of the 80's / 90's . Modern day stuff is often far less creative

[@SecretOfMonkeyIsland784]

@@Sinisteve Forgot to say, the theme music for Shadow of the beast gives me the nostalgia feels everytime i hear it.

[@emils7749]

I would add Lord of the Rising Sun, Wings and Powermonger! Great Video! 👍

Cheers buddy, one of my best mates loved powermonger

[@mertersun]

Aaah that Moonstone on number 15!! I am now 40 and clearly remember the game I managed to kill the dragon and got that sword! Brilliant game!

[@Sinisteve]

Quality game, I never had an original copy growing up and I’ll always remember searching for one in the early 2000s, baring in mind I was picking Amiga games up for next to nothing Moonstone was around £50-£80! I remember getting one for £40 and upgrading it a few times, now it fetches £200+ Iconic game

[@rendezvous-2129]

Zool, Meglomani, Super Kick Off 2. These were the days... thanks for a nostalgia blast Uw... Knights Of The Sky

Yeah I played Zool quite a lot as a kid but don’t think it’s held up that well, thanks for watching👍

[@jamesrizzo295]

Thank-you for the memories! You might have just pushed me over the edge on buying a second hand Amiga and restarting the collection! Your collection of original boxes games is amazing. Have you kept this up from back in the day or did you get back into starting up your collection later in life?

[@Sinisteve]

Yeah pick one up! They’re cheap enough if you look around...I’ve still got all my disks from back in the day, I had around 50 boxed games then but I threw the boxes away stupidly as they were taking up too much room under my bed🙄 Luckily I got back into it around 2004 and was picking games up from eBay for pennies

[@jamesrizzo295]

@@Sinisteve I'm having a great time watching all your content. Have you ever considered doing a bit of a "tips and tricks" video for anyone thinking of jumping into starting there own retro collection?
