The older games thread.

[DarkBliss]

The only pc games I liked were the Sim City 3000 series and The Sims collection. I also played Star Wars Galaxies but my comp wasn't very good for that.

 

[-CC-]

But wait. There's MOAR:

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee

Skullmonkeys

Legend

Ehrgeiz

Die Hard Trilogy

Alien Trilogy

Grand Theft Auto

Future Cop: LAPD

Metal Slug

Simcity 2000

 

[DarkBliss]

Oh, Oddworld. I always wanted to play this game.Need to download it or smth.

Jazz Jackrabbit 1 and 2 should be mentioned. Excellent classic platformers.

 

[Satanstoenail]

I forgot about Oddworld, played that heaps.

 

[Valerie]

Metal Slug was one of the best arcade games.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

This is what made Bungie a great company.

 

[DarkBliss]

And then they released Halo...

J/k, I know there are many hardcore fans of the game here. I've never understood what's so great about it.

Bubble Bobble anyone?

I remember playing a game called Smuggler's Run addictively back in the day, not sure what console that was, but fuck that was awesome.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

FUCK Parappa the Rapper. Ugh.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Bubble Bobble anyone?

Yeah I played it on C64. Gayer than two men fucking, but I played it nonetheless.

 

[waif]

Metal Slug games are awesome.

 

[Doomguy]

Blast Corps.

I nostalgia'd.

Some more:

MDK (PC)

Clock Tower (PS1)

Treasure Island Dizzy (ZX Spectrum)

 

[Onder]

Hehe, I played MDK but I didn't find it very good even back then.

 

[Blind Guardian]

Commandos:

Vandal Hearts:

Love Vandal Hearts, it's like a terrain chess version of Final Fantasy

 

[Vilden]

Old school games ftw! Old RTS-games like Total Annihilation, Dark Colony, Mech Commander, C&C and Warcraft are great.

Other classics I loved back then and still love are:

Little Big Adventure
The Incredible Machine
Road Rash (OUTSHINED!!!)
Full Throttle
Carmageddon
Sim Tower
Transport Tycoon
The X-files The Game
Blood
Blood II
Sin
Postal
Commandos
Ganja Farmer (;D)
Ignition

Still playing lots of them, actually finished the Mech Commander campaign again not too long ago.

Edit:
One of the best multiplayer games ever!!! NETSTORM

And then they released Halo...

J/k, I know there are many hardcore fans of the game here. I've never understood what's so great about it.

Not a Halo fan either.

 

[Matt]

Halo is a highly competitive, teamwork orientated shooter that is pretty fun. Also ample opportunities to make money off of it.

edit: the only thing good about it is the multiplayer.

 

[Nightmare_Heaven]

Whoever posted Grim Fandango here, well done. Seriously, that might just be the most underrated video game of all time. Apart from that, it's all about Doom, Heretic, HeXen, Descent, Terminal Velocity, Age of Empires 1 and 2, Shogun and Medieval Total War, Worms 2/Armageddon, Duke Nukem 3D, Wolfenstein 3D....all on PC of course. Great to see great old stuff like GF and Heretic being recognized still amidst all this Halo etc faggotry...HAIL OLD SCHOOL

 

[SWAT]

Day of the Tentacle

This game was awesome back in the day.
