Default Which AMIGA game features the MOST beautiful/marvellous graphics???

Hoya!

YES, another one by me! ;-)

I would say:

SOTB (I am the FIRST one in this thread, nah! ;-))
Unreal
SpeedBall2 ;-)
Turrican 3
Battle Squadron
MoonStone
SWIV

OK, that is all for now.

Your move, creeps! ;-)

Be funky

Greetings,

Nice graphics comes to mind.

SOTB (really nice parallax)
Jim Powers (nice parallax too but gameplay don't like)
AlienBreed 2 and >
ChaosEngine
Turrican II and III
SuperFrog (cute)
Brian the Lion (very cute)
R-Type II (hard to play it though)
Arkanoid I
Defenders of the Crown
SIMCITY 2k(cool)
Zool 2
SuperStarDust (tunnel part only! rather play the demo)
Lotus III
Silk Worm (solid playing)
FlashBack

Thanks MAD!

Good day to all Amigans! :-D

Nothing can beat Microcosm for graphics, which in addition to being graphically impressive is also technically impressive given the specs of the CD32. Shame about the gameplay though.

The detail and animation in the AGA version of Simon the Sorcerer was excellent.

I thought Turrican 2's gfx were better than 3. Turrican 3 appeared a little more clunky in comparison.

Shadow of the Beast was a definite yes, but it's a little spoiled by the four colour sprites which don't go well with the glorious backdrops - particularly on the Plains level.

Battle Squadron? Pure, old-skool shoot em up in the style of a myriad of arcade games and I liked the graphics for it.

Here's my list of games I was most impressed by - not necessarily THE best you understand.

Nebulus
Turrican II
F15 Strike Eagle II - Those copper skies were nice.
Lotus III & all the Lotus series
Shadow of the Beast
Super Stardust
The intro for Stryx

Well...no, I'd say universe is better looking. Hundreds of colours on an A500...although Lionheart comes close ...and super stardust's tunnels were gob smacking.

But why stay old school? Tales of Tamar, genetic species, T-zero (especially) and Napalm are all good looking too.

I think comparing new games' gfx isn't enough exciting. today's games has just average quantity in any form unlike the all-time classics.
By the way, Shadow Of The Beast II has the best demons and environment to feel the mood
