What are some old games that you really liked? Alot of the old games I like actually either don't work on XP, or there's too much trouble getting it to run on XP. I'll list some of my favs:

-Dark Forces - too lazy to use DOS box to make it work, lol

-Claw - a platformer developed by Monolith games. It had animated movies (aka cartoons) for cutscenes, which made it really cool.

-Jedi Knight and MotS - obvious reasons why I like them

-Wolfenstein (for DOS) - I believe this was my first game

-Duke Nukem 3D - humor made the game kinda fun

Assuming we are talking only of old computer games:
-Doom and Doom 2;
-SW: Dark Forces;
-SW: TIE Fighter.

Is 1998 considered 'old'? If so:
-Fallout;
-Baldur's Gate;
-Half-life;
-Diablo;

I still play these games a lot, except for TIE Fighter and Dark Forces.

Rogue Squadron was one of my favorite games. I only got to play the first one though.

Asteroids
Mario Kart 64
Super Mario 64
Pokemon Red (playing right now actually )
Earthbound
Super Metroid
Super Smash Bros.
Super Mario RPG
Basically everything in my Gameboy box

Commander Keen
Lemmings
Dark Forces

Good games...

Lords of the Realm II. A pretty darn good game for its time, and probably the first PC game I ever played.

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. That one was so much fun on the Tatooine levels, I always went on a Gamorrean Guard massacre

Siege of Avalon.

I dunno why I liked it, graphics sucked, but the gameplay was nice...

I would also recommend DarkXL (currently in development, but mostly works)

Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D

My first star wars game, I remember playing for hours on end with my friend.

Asteroids

Dude...I remember that game, I think it might have actually been the first game I ever played on a computer if we're talking about the same one. Black and white, the spaceship was a little triangle that started out in the middle of the screen? And of course, the weird little buzzy-beeping sounds from your laser.

Others I liked back in the day(a lot of these have already been mentioned, actually):

Star Wars: Racer
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
Super Mario 64
Super Smash Bros.
Pokemon Snap
The other pokemon games for the Gameboy (I had Yellow and Silver)
Goldeneye

And even older, the Mario games for NES. Who cares if they were made a good five years before I was born, they're amazing.

Wow, lots of great games you guys. A few I forgot:

-Episode 1 Racer

-Rogue Squadron 3D - how can you not like it?

-Pokemon Silver - closest I ever came to filling up the Pokedex. Too bad it lost the ability to save.

And also, thanks for providing links on how to get DF to work, Tean and AQT.

Fury III by Microsoft. I used to play it in elementary school on the school computers.
