Other games of note: X-com: Ufo Defense, X-Com: Terror From the Deep (I still play this one!), Civilization 2, all the Dooms, DukeNukem 3d, and I'm sure many others that I can't remember. Another note they sell new versions of X-com called the Collector's edition that will play on 2000/xp without DOS. You can play the old ones but you won't have sound.

OMG ... I have to have this. Thanks for the heads-up.

Edit: Damn. Amazon has some on their marketplace, ranging $80-85. Ebay has two for sale, final sale price seems to be $65+. I love the games, but not that much. I already bought Apocalypse, I'll have to make due with the illicit versions of the other two.

I found mine about 6 months ago online for about $15. I can't remember where I got it though sorry. I can't seem to find it either. Hum.
 
Rogue (not the ascii one, the early graphics atari one. anyone know of a good windows version of this?)
All the sierra games mentioned above (king's quest, roger wilco, leisure suit larry, quest for glory)
DaggerFall (morrowind sucks compared to the original)
