Recently I've been finding my old games and replaying them for nostalgic value. They're still so fun :D

 

Lets see, here's a list of games I'm playing/just re-finished:

Space Quest series (took 2 days :P remembering most of the puzzles helped)

Leisure Suit Larry series

Cannon Fodder 1 and 2

Ultima 8 (haven't really started yet...)

Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? (so fun)

Where in Space is Carmen Sandiego? (same as above)

Commander Keen 6 (couldn't find the early games)

 

And I'm planning on borrowing the Kings Quest series from my friend :D

 

If you want to look for some you remember, try this site:

Not all are downloadable but the ones showing the floppy disk are. To play them you'll probably need to use Dosbox, a DOS emulator basically. If you need help with it just ask.

 

Oh, and got any recommendations on games I should play? I prefer adventure type games when dealing with these oldies.

sometimes I sit down and plug in my (surprising still working) super Nintendo and play games like "The Seventh Saga"

 

thats a *real* old game from Square that was a big hit, but got ground under by the success of Final Fantasy

could always try bauders gate as well, also age of empiers 1 and 2.  one unique one i had at one time was hunt for red october.

oh yeah, i tried the original Lords of the Realm and ugh... so overloaded with information

ok, i have to revive this thread to show you this:
