Who still plays a really old PC game? (at least semi-regularly)

I still login to WoW to chat with my old buddies. But all my characters are still level 85s and I have no intentions of taking them any further. Gave a couple away to my old guildies.


I also like to play C&C Red Alert and Sim City 4000


As for console gaming, I'll pick up Castlevania SOTN, FFVI, FFVII, and Mario 64.
 
I'm replaying Heroes of Might Magic 3 complete again now, for the 20th time probably.

That's a great great game... Although I thought it was a lot better in the early parts - the maps are just prettier and then the later tactical stuff gets weird with dragons and angels.
 
Also, I regularly play Master of Orion 2.
I keep an old crappy laptop around for that sole purpose! It won't run on a 64-bit OS at all and I haven't found a version that'll work with DOSbox (which has fewer audio glitches than the Win95 version.)

In searching for a fun image, I may have stumbled on a fan-made remake!

Ah! Looking like a distinct possibility! http://www.pcgamesn.com/master-of-orion/master-of-orion-trailer-shows-off-two-races-and-first-gameplay

I occasionally go back and play Full Throttle all the way through.
It was a terrible day when the sequel got canceled... gawd what an awesome game!

We need a modernized version of Leisure Suit Larry.

It's been done!
