I was playing the original Command & Conquer a couple of weeks ago
No screenies though

I'm currently half way through Warhammer Dark Omen, which is twice as far as I got when I first played it waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in 1998. Too bad I can't find Shadow of the Horned Rat.

At work I've got a few computers running Windows 95/98.
Warcraft & Doom 2, still great games !

All my old games rock in various ways. One that I'm going to eventually try one day (as I only ever played the shareware version) is "Blood" that game was one of the most friggin hilarious, morbid, sick and awesome all into one. It's similar to doom but WAY better IMO. That game is SORELY in need of a remake.

Lol! Yup. I never even got to try all the weapons in the shareware version but it had a bunch of twisted weapons like voodoo dolls, igniting aerosal spray cans etc. You could pop off heads with the pitchfork then kick them around like soccer balls. Probably my favorite I used was the flare gun. Enemies would run around on fire screaming "it burns! it burns!" lol.

Fallout 1, 2
System Shock 2
Deus Ex (playing for first time )
Transport Tycoon Deluxe (now OpenTTD)
EDIT:
And original System Shock too.

Close Combat 2: A Bridge Too Far.

A truly great game. Masterpiece of its time and still completely playable.

Hopefully they will someday continue the series.

Blood. That game was awesome funny. I remember lol'ing hard when the Tommy gun toting monks appeared.

A couple of months back, I downlaoded SimTower again. I then spent about 2 weeks playing it nearly non-stop. Fantastic job

Too many great old games, too little time...

Anyone played Syndicate? Man I LOVED that game....

[[-project.rattus-]]

How's about moving it to the Gaming Forums?

 

[Murphy]

MarioKart 64. At least twice a week. IT never gets old, so I'm not sure if it qualifies for this thread.

 

[[DA]DIZ]

^^^Syndicate hell yeah !!! That was a great game !!!

 

[Nestor Makhno]

Syndicate was teh pwn as was UFO2 - Terror from the Deep. Lovely sinister sound fx.

The entire close combat series was good - I particularly liked the Battle of the Bulge one (#4?).

The original Thief was good but the original Hitman was waaaay worse than Hitman 2.

The entire Civilisation series (and Alpha Centauri) has been responsible for far more, "Wha..? where did the day go?" scenarios than I care to mention.

 

[Dumba [cro]]

Oooh, oooh, original UFO.... that was ominous and creepy!!!

 

[Skew]

God you're old!

I'm playing Fallout 2 atm, but I must say, Deus Ex was one of the first, and still is, the most enjoyable games I have ever played. It never ceases to amaze me, there simply hasn't been any single player game since it's release that has even gotten close to the perfection of this game.
