I still have an old copy of Sentinel Worlds: Future Magic, A game by Electronic Arts. Game designer: Karl Buiter.
(c) 1988

In intresting game, that I played on a Radio Shack 1000HX with no hard drive, and 512K memory. Ahhh those were the days

DOS based "Marble Madness" for the original Tandy 1000 (which I had up until a few years ago when it got tossed.)

I also had for the same system, "King's Quest", a fairly original and very difficult RPG, one of the first I'm sure.

I'm playing through the "Wing Commander" series currently, and I'm just about to start the final installment. Yes I know, it was released in 1997, but it's still an "old" game in my opinion!

I've still got a copy of Wolfenstein 3D on floppy...

It's not PC platform, but- an old Sega 32X game called 'Shadow Squadron'- six levels, but a fighter based storyline- you even get to choose your ship, a choice between a light but resuppliable ship, or a heavier ship that was far more durable. The enemy had it all- Carriers, battleships, destroyers, etc, and your job is to take 'em out. 3D universe, just not much to see..

The best part was the ship library- images of all the ships you see in the game including the ones in the 'cutscenes' and the stations, too. For the time, a good space sim and one I still play to this day when the mood hits. If you will, a 'short story' type of game

Favorite has to be WC IV
starcon2 period now remade for newer systems called the ur-quan masters
all wc of course
Quest for Glory 1-4
heretic
wolf 3d
phantasmagoria
gorillas (i still am a bannana throwin fiend)
Red Storm Rising (dust it off every few years )
these are all played by me within the last year or so

I loved Frontier:Elite 2,wing commander: Prophercy and Space Hulk-Vengance of the blood angels.......still trying to find a copy of that that's not like £15 on ebay

i have mechwarrior 2 and the original monkey island game, as well as the first game of imperium.

oh lord ther are soo many lol.
back when the commador64D first came out I had a WW2 sub game that I spent many free hours on, but I cant remember what it was called.

heres one of the early greats: Zelda, the very first one
I also remember many fun times with pong and later haveing a coligovision (sp?)
and the many fun games on that, like burgertime and cops & robbers(?).
is that old enough games for you? OR would you like for me to talk about "car war" and other paper&pen games I loved in my teens.

Blessed Be to all those that still dream of the flight to the stars.

I second TA. It has got to be the funnest RTS I've ever played. Can't wait for supreme commander to show up.
