I had an Amiga (too young to think what kind of model it was) I remember my parents had some decent games for it though: Miami Vice, Cannon Fodder, a star wars one and some other ones.

The 1990s were the golden age of gaming, no doubt about it. :love:

Correct. Bizarrely, I never really got on with Robotron (on which it was very strongly based). But Llamatron was amazingly addictive.

The only computer games I've ever really liked have been:

Citadel on the Acorn Electron in about 1986
Lords Of Midnight on the ZX Spectrum in about 88 or something
Dragon's Fury on the Mega Drive in 92 or something

Anyone remember Dragon's Fury? Utterly amazing pinball game that was actually more like a shoot em up. Stopped playing computer games in about 93 or something.
