Here is a nice website (http://www.back2roots.org/News/)

this website has an EXTREME number of games for the amiga computer, Both disk and CD based, and so much software it's hard to keep track. It's insane, and it's all legal.

so you may be looking at that site saying "Interesting, thats alot of games, how do i play them?", well, you need to get a amiga emulater, i would go with winUAE (http://www.winuae.net/)

However, in order to run winUAE, you need a "kickstart" rom, which you can find online.... but it is illigal unless you own an amiga. HOWEVER, you can spend a little money and get "Amiga forever" (http://www.amigaforever.com/) which is winUAE, with alot of different kickstart roms and OS versions (from the 80's to the 90's) so all the games and apps will work. It's a great program.

I remember playing on a real amiga before, and if you take the two side by side, they are one in the same here (in my opinion), you can change so many opitions, because there are so many different versions of them.

Yeah I used to have an Amiga 500 and whole shitload of disks full of pirated games. What a great system. I use WinUAE myself. I also have the version of it ported to my Xbox.. Good times. Team17, Bitmap Brothers, Psygnosis, etc. own j00.
