Title: UK Amiga Games Charts Dec 1988 & May 1991
Post by: ComSoft6128 on 09:03, 26 May 22
Sorting thru piles of boxed computer mags for disposal this fell out - the "Amiga Games Supplement" from issue 135 (June 1991) of New Computer Express. One article, "The Halcyon Days of Amiga Games", shows the following:

UK AMIGA GAMES CHART DEC 1988             UK AMIGA GAMES CHART MAY 1991

 1) Operation Wolf                                             1) Lemmings
 2) Double Dragon                                             2) Speedball 2
 3) Thunderblade                                              3) SWIV
 4) Batman                                                         4) Fantasy World Dizzy
 5) Football Manager 2                                      5) R-Type
 6) Pacmania                                                      6) Final Whistle
 7) Elite                                                               7) Little Puff In Dragon Land
 8)Return Of The Jedi                                        8)F-19 Stealth Fighter
 9) Daley Thomson's Olympic Challenge         9) A-10 Tank Killer
10) OutRun                                                       10)  Super Hang-On

It looks to me that the 1988 chart might as well be the CPC games chart for that year, I think most (all?) of the games listed were released for the CPC as well as the other home computer formats.

There was a lot of cross over in the late 80s before the 16-bit machines really started getting titles which flexed them beyond what the more humble 8 bits could pull off.
