WOW! Lemmings was an awesome game. Played that back around 1990 or so in High School. Was so cool beacuse it was a total thinking game but they were so cute to watch just kill themselves. heh heh.

If anyone has any of those lemmings games, let me know. 🙂
 
Pitfall, Enduro, Spider Fighter, Combat, Tron Deadly Discs, Berserk, Barnstorming on the atari 2600

bit more recently Space Quest, Kings Quest, Liesure Suit Larry on an 8088. EGA graphics, circa 1986

yet more recent: King's Quest 5 or 6 (can't remember the version) on a 486

UT, Zork: Nemesis, NFS series on a Celery 366


 
Man i loved playing the sierra games. Gold Rush, Kings Quest, Police Quest, Colonel's Bequest....... back when games required thinking.
 
One of my favorites was MASTER OF MAGIC. That was a very early Sid Meier game, btween Civ 1 and Civ 2. Very kewl. I actually found it about a year ago at a flea market in the original package. I bought it for $3!

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. These have full sound support and play great!
