The golden age of PC gaming - classic games

Hah. Yeah, I don’t doubt that.
But they’re not especially relaxing games!

No they not, but when you play you relax, I guess :smiley:

Of course they’re not relaxing games! They’re not supposed to be! The Doom manuals describe the games as “not a cumbersome adventure game, but a lightning fast, virtual slugathon”, so the games were meant to be fast-paced shooter games with not much of a story, not like in Doom 3 where there’s more exposition.

Oh, just comes to my mind: have you played Drakan: Order of the Flame? That game was really epic.

Slamscape - it’s mainly just nostalgia that drives this game for me, because it is ridiculously hard. There are 4 levels, and I still cannot get to the last one.

P.O.D. and Episode 1 Racer. I am terrible at racing games and I hate them, but these two were great enough that I got good at them anyway.

Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2. One of, if not the best Star Wars game I’ve ever played.

Morrowind. Huge and endless amounts of stuff to do. When I first played it, I played for over 20 hours before I actually started doing the main quest.

Raptor: Call of the Shadows. An awesome scrolling fighter game like Raiden, but in between missions you can spend the money you earn to upgrade your fighter.

I’m sure I can probably think of some more.

You think Dark Forces 2 is one of the greatest Star Wars games of all time?
Someone hasn’t tried KoToR

No, the best star wars game is Republic Commando

Looks like some people people have forgotten what it’s like to be in the office of a rebel starfighter:

Yep, Tie Fighter was superb.

Superb to shoot to pieces.

Some of my personal favorites. Every one of these images bring back hours of nostalgic fun. (wonders if anyone can actually name all of these… without looking at image names)











I remember playing Silver, it was released in 1999 though, but it was great nontheless.
It was the shit back in the days.

Well, KoToR is a good game, but I found it too slow. It wasn’t so fast-paced, since it’s a RPG. JK1 was a fav of me, but I found the 2nd part of the JK trilogy the best. Jedi Outcast just rocked the hell out. I prefer linear storyline (and I missed that from JK3).

Wtf is this game?

Also, this made me love robots:

It’s Doom II :what:

Micromanmicromanmicromamicrommicromicro

Chip’s Challenge

Hugo’s Horrific Adventure (House of Horrors)

Microsoft Pinball Arcade

Comet Busters!

Duke Nukem 3D

Heretic II

The Labyrinth Plus!

I got this one for Christmas, when the film came out. The best HP game imo :3



This was the best Star Wars game, fool:

I nostalgia’d hard in this thread then made a mess.









Actually still have an original boxed copy of Blood.

And going even older.
