So Old I'm Losing Radiation Signs
Since were all FO fans, I think it goes without question that were not |337 gamers that like to play the 'pretty' games but rather ones that we enjoy, even if its quite old.

The basis of this thread is simlple, list the OLD games you play still.


Ok, heres my list.

Fallout: A post Nuculear Role Playing Game
Fallout: 2 (when easter eggs attack)
Klingnon academy
Starfleet command 1
Starfleet command 2
Starfleet command: The Orion Pirates
Age of Empires gold edition
Age of Empires 2 gold edition
Star Wars:Galactic battlegrounds (including the expansion)
Empire Earth
Operation Flashpoint:Coldwar Crisis
 
Right now I'm playing old adventure games: Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max and Flight of the Amazon Queen. I also got Ultima 7 recently, but I can't run it! Damn game wants more EMS memory, even though I changed memory settings for file ultima7.com to 16 MB of EMS. Anybody got any ideas what to do?
 
Dreamweb (1994, Adventure) is about the only old game I play, as it is one of the first games I've played and is a part of my childhood. It's seriously one of the best cyberpunk games ever made because of the enormous amount of atmosphere in the game. A lot of people here probably like to play some truly old-school games made in the late 1980's, but seeing as the classic NES is older than I am, I was too young to be a part of that scene.
 
I still fire up Sentinel Worlds I pretty often. The Quest for Glory series also sees some action occasionally. I played Defender of the Crown pretty regularly also, then for some reason the jousting started crashing the game so I stopped.

I used to play Colonization and Pirates! a fair bit also, but they are finally losing their magic. Oh and Conquest of the New World. My French cavalry dominate everyone, including those filthy filthy Dutch.

That's nothing, a few weeks ago I played the original CGA version of Arkanoid. Now that's old.
 
take into account that im only 16 before you read what i play:
Snes, nes, commodore 64 (last ninja trilogy rules!!), ZX spectrum, amstrad CPC, acorn electron, master system II, mega drive, arcade (thats just the computers and consoles :D)
as for pc games, i play:
doom 1+2
quake (1-3)
dizzy series
fallout 1+2 (obviously)
C&C
civilization 1+2
diablo 1+2 (addictive as hell)
screamer
blood 1+2
simcity

GTA 1
XCOM 1-3
prince of persia 1-2
micro machines 1-2
Xenon 2
dynablast
abuse
indiana jones and the fate of atlantis
zak mcracken
discworld

so basically, a lot of old games :D
 
I still play jet set radio and jet set radio future, the only good skating games i know of.
 
Nice thread idea...

Starcraft (ok so its never gets old)
Deadlock (one of the best underdog strategy games IMO)
The Megaman X series (love the music)
Dink Smallwood (modder's forever! Six years counting as a matter of fact and the community is still vibrant)
Various Shooter games especially Galaga (the ones with ships fighting alien hordes)

Sincerely,
The Vault Dweller
 
Sentinel Worlds was a great game. The oldest I ever play is War In Russia. I loved Empire before Civilization came along.
 
Hmmm... good thread.

Doom series,
Star Control II,
Fallout 1/2
SimCity 2000
The Need for Speed (Still the best on the 3DO)
Any of a dozen classic NES games, along with whatever strikes my fancy at the time. I'm a huge Interstate '76 fan but it more-or-less requires a steering wheel and I'm usually too lazy to set mine up. Just got a new PC and I'm actually not sure what will run on it yet...

Thanks bro, I'm looking forward to diving into the happiness. However, happiness will have to wait another few weeks, because Half Life 2 and Vampire Bloodlines have threatened to kill me if I don't play them.
 
No problem, I'm in the middle of bloodsucking everything that walks myself.

Then HL2 awaits.

Halo 2.

Too much to play, not enough time.
