Quake(world) and Unreal Tournament are my top FPS games ever. Total Annihilation is an epic RTS, that is still lots of fun today. Giant Citizen Kabuto! The game is split in three parts that play completely different (third person shooter vs monster on a rampage vs third person RTS). It has loads of humor and is a blast to play. Made by former members of Shiny Entertainment that also made MDK (another highly recommended game). Dungeon Keeper, or any other game made by Bullfrog :) You need to build a dungeon, amass vast amounts of gold, slap your minions around, and slay all the heroes that enter your domain. Homeworld, might a bit too recent, but that game was so freaking awesome. Its basically a RTS in 3D space. There was recently a remaster for this game that also includes Homeworld 2. Have not tried it yet though, so cannot say if its any good. Sadly the expansion Homeworld Cataclysm is not included, as the source code was lost :( |

Doom 1 & 2. We used to LAN the crap out of it when we were kids. Lots of fun. Not sure how far back we're going back, but I played a ton of rollercoaster tycoon. The original game and. Age of empires 1, I don't think anybody mentioned grand theft auto 1. I'd like to get that running in dos box through my frontend use a steering wheel like super sprint style.

Alrighty, thanks to this thread and others I've been adding to my "list of classic games I really should have played the first time 'round". Currently it stands at: X-COM Fallout Heroes of Might and Magic III The Secret of Monkey Island Zork I Syndicate Planescape: Torrent Master of Orion StarCraft Ultima VII: The Black Gate Crusader: No Remorse Diablo/Diablo 2 Wing Commander/Privateer Star Control 2 Populous AD&D Gold Box (Pool of Radiance, Eye of the Beholder, etc...) Man, that's a lot of games... |

Some of those games are ridiculously long... that'll keep you busy for a while. What about Jazz Jackrabbit? It's not the best platformer in the world, but it's still worth playing. |
