Old games that you like
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

Re: Old games that you like
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.

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

Re: Old games that you like
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.Asteroids
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.

Re: Old games that you like
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.
