Some that have been running through my head and I had to jot them down before I forget.

Weird Dreams. Heh, this game actually used to scare the hell out of me. you play an accident victim who is on the operating table fading in and out of consciousness. You begin to dream, some horrible twisted dreams including little girls with huge knives, killer bees, statues with ostriches legs, footballs with huge teeth and other twisted and scary crap. You have to make your way through these nightmares without getting eaten or stabbed to death. if you die in the dream, you get to witness yourself wake up briefly, before your heart stops. nice.

Badlands. Great multiplayer 2D car racing action a la super off road. set in an apocalyptic future. good stuff

Cabal. A bit like operation wolf only 3rd person, you blast people, tanks, helicopters, armoured cars and all sorts. what was different was when you cleared a level, you ran up the screen with your arms in the air like a little sissy girl, with appropriate music. laughed my ass off at that one.

Any strange titles you can remember ?

one day i'll get round to getting Workbench on WinUAE, just so i can play Workbench Asteroids.. which ruled all! :)

Anyone remember a very basic flight sim where you could have two player split screen? The ground was simply a grid and the missiles you fired were just chequered spheres. Your planes were wireframe but you had a choice, including a paper aeroplane!

Can't remember the name, though ... :^(

I played that game for hours on ends. I wished they'd've done a version where you could connect two Amigas together and played against a mate.

Ha! Skychase, i thought i was the only one to buy that game.
