MARATHON FOREVER!

That's classic gaming, that. It's what made Bungie big.

Monkey Island series, Ive completed them sevral times, and I almost kill myself of laughter everytime.

"How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?"

"A wood chuck wouldnt chuck any amount of wood since it cant chuck wood at all."

"But IF a wood chuck could chuck any amount of wood, how much wood would a wood chuck chuck?"

"Even if a wood chuck could chuck any amount of wood, it wouldnt chuck any amount of wood. It has no use"

or something like that:P

I've been playing a lot of Diablo II recently but i Don't know if that's really considered old...

Kaydron 08-22-2003 02:29 AM

Hmmm Diablo 1 and 2 and a little Starcraft now and then;)

and some times Thief 1, 2 and Homeworld

Hah! I really wanted to get I76 to play the other day, but it did not work on XP! That was a great game.

quantumburnz 08-22-2003 01:15 PM

Duke Nukem, ahh, those were great days... I've never gotten to play it again, but those were fun, and bubble bobble! That was great!

Hrothgar 08-23-2003 06:39 PM

I'm having fun playing Sanitarium at the moment. I downloaded it from underdogs and it is funny playing a mental patient.

abormen 08-23-2003 07:03 PM

X-Com is still one of the best games created, and I'm playing it through again at current.

Homeworld is always fun, esp. if you use mods now and thne to shake thigns up.

Age of Wonders is always good for a play through in campaign mode once in awhile, and is, in my opinion, much more fun than the Heroes series.

And a game thats getting on in its years; Alpha Centauri. Play this on lan with my friends when I can. gg Planet Busters :lol: .

moe121086 08-23-2003 07:46 PM

JBX 08-24-2003 07:24 PM

I want to play Quarentine, but i cant get it to run at all, any advice from someone who has played the game?

Arc101 08-26-2003 10:27 AM

Bards Tale 1 - Still a great RPG
Elite - Yes I still give this a go on my old C64
Choas - This was a ZX Spectrum game which was very addictive

AL9045 08-26-2003 10:30 AM

Hmm, I don't really play really old games, although I do play those old Sierra classics once in a while.

Aaron0000 08-26-2003 11:42 PM

Age of Empires series.

Walson 08-27-2003 07:41 PM

Nethack! Yay!
I'm also addicted to Star Control 2 right now.

PC
- Fallout 1 & Fallout 2
- Quest For Glory series
- Grand Theft Auto

MAC
-Fallout 1 & Fallout 2

Yes, I really like Fallout, it is a great game to play on a laptop between classes.

phoenix1002 08-27-2003 10:31 PM

lets see.... (rooting through CD rack)

Fallout 1 and 2 (ahhh... burst at point blank)
Descent (classic robot-killing fun)
Halflife (I suppose that's kinda old now?)
C&C (classic rts)
C&C Red Alert (before it was just Red Alert...)
Diablo 1 and 2 (tap tap tap splat!)
Total Annihilation (um.. still can't tell the units apart, but its still fun)
Unreal Gold (haven't played that in a while... think I might have to bust it out again)
Wing Commander Prophecy
Freespace (two of the best space combat sims, IMHO)
Oh, and Starcraft never dies

edit: and yes, I still play these pretty often. That's when I get tired of my newer games, uninstall them, and actually have space for the older ones...

aarchaon 02-02-2004 04:55 PM

Starcraft and Wolfenstein 3D for ever...my brother plays Commander Keen sometimes.

jujueye 02-02-2004 05:28 PM

Quake 3
Unreal

Enka 02-02-2004 05:32 PM

Might not be all too old to you all, but I have yet to find a flight game that compares to this...

oh yeah
freespace 2 beat this game
more capital ships + bigger capital ships = more fun

Mr.Deflok 02-02-2004 11:11 PM

Doom I
Doom II
Quake II
Day of the Tentacle

and FUTURE SHOCK and SKYNET if I can figure out how to make 'em run on new machines :(

Jack Ruby 02-03-2004 06:59 AM

XCOM UFO Defense is still the greatest PC game ever, and it's great to see several new games trying to capture its turn-based alien-shooting gooshiness.

sapiens 02-03-2004 07:22 AM

Dopewars! A text based drug dealing adventure!

Kagh't 02-03-2004 07:48 AM

someones probably said it, but the first ever lemmings, so much fun confined in such a small space!

Lucifer 02-03-2004 02:00 PM

Dune
Believe it or not! It still is one great game to me

Redjake 02-03-2004 02:24 PM

I still play some Unreal Tournament every now and then, and some Quake II.

02-03-2004 03:23 PM

i wish i could still play kings quest series.. but no more dos, blah

Nevus 02-03-2004 03:41 PM

Infocom
 
I still play X-Com and TFTD.
Master of Magic and Master of Orion 3 also are still kicking around on my hard drive. So is Arcanum (although thats not that old yet) =P

Lokus 02-03-2004 03:49 PM

The only old games I play regularly are X-COM: UFO Defense and a bunch of emulated SNES and NES games.

Every once in a while I reinstall these goodies:
Lords of the Realm II
System Shock 2
Command and Conquer
Full Throttle
Fallout
Baldur's Gate
Quake 2

Man, just hearing Descent mentioned brings back memories. I used to love that game, God bless the bucket o' sunshine!

P.S. Hello Krycheck :D

Crack 02-03-2004 05:11 PM

Starcraft! come on people... it's a classic right?

healyk 02-03-2004 05:50 PM

Sword of Aragon
Fantasy General
Dungeon Master

And of course, Starcraft.

VitaminH 02-03-2004 08:21 PM

STARCRAFT FOR LIFE.

I...just....can't....stop....


Oh, and ZORK was possibly the coolest text based game. EVER.

keef 02-04-2004 02:10 PM

i still play quakeworld...

but a really cool older game that i think everyone will enjoy is called dungeon keeper, i saw it in teh store teh otehr day (with dungeon keeper 2) for 10 bux!

Lokus 02-04-2004 05:37 PM

Work harder! *slap*

Ah good old Dungeon Keeper. You've just inspired me to reinstall it :D

I completely forgot that Oregon Trail existed, I have to play it now. I always lost everyone to Cholera, damn that cholera!

also wolfenstein 3d and duke nukem 3d

Confederate 02-04-2004 08:57 PM

I started playing streetrod 2 lately, plus all of the original leisure suit larry games

Tracer 02-07-2004 05:41 PM

Every now and then I pull out my Quest for Glory games (formly named Hero's Quest). Love 'em. A fan-based company called Tierra is supposedly remaking QG2 with VGA graphics.

I definately remember wasting a lot of time playing Ski Free (though I don't know where my 2001 windows games CD is to re-install it). All I remember is getting to the bottom of the slope and that damn dog tripping me. Micro Man was another cool one off that disk.

I really enjoyed Command & Conquer back in the day (with my then-awesome Pentium 100!!). I used to deathmatch my friends in that every night (caused quite a few fights too ;) ).

Baldur's Gate II (if that's considered old... it came out in like 2001 right?)

Anyhow, my computer is getting pretty ancient so I probably won't ever be playing "new" games on it. Therefore all my games are old! :D
