With its unique design with powerful graphics handling and sound capabilites, the Amiga has always been considered a games machine, but this requirement is now being actively pursued on every other platform now that relatively cheap graphic and sounds have become readily available. The simple games of yesterday are now becoming larger and often much more complex to play, many requiring high-end machines to take advantage of the options available. Depending on your particular tastes there is a wide range of games to choose from, loosely broken down into the following categories - Adventure games, Arcade games, Bat and Ball games, Beat-em-up games, Educational games, God games, Platform games, Puzzle and Quiz games, Racing games, Role-playing games, Shoot-em-up games, Simulation games, Sports games, Strategy games and War games.
