Tidal wave of flashback for me. About half of of the games checked I remember playing somewhere or have played the demos/trials for. Some of those I had to dig up screenshots for to recall. The rest, well, are mine.

Back in the day, a month of PC Gamer or a similar magazine gave you a disc full of enough demos to keep you busy for quite awhile. Now, everybody just downloads them.

If there is a demo at all.
I used to do the same when I was younger. We got Interwebz really late, so I had no alternative.
An article on RPS suggested that many of that "golden" demo age still play a wide range of games, containing pretty much everthing throughout the genres, instead of a few selected ones for long periods of time. I myself am one of those who barly sticks with a game for more than half year.
Scored 114 out of that picture, but many are missing.

I remember those days well...

CDs of demos and 1000s of Doom levels. Good times...

I really need to play the old Fallouts and Elder Scrolls games. Oh and Deus Ex and SS2 just so Miggle's head will explode.

I can remember playing golden axe when I lived in melbourne, so <4 years old. And some other game about a circus. and one where you are doing some pest control or something. AND BATTLE CHESS!!

e: and the box art style of warcraft and warcraft II brought some butterflies to my stomach. some nostalgia right there even though I mainly saw dad play and most of my memories WAS the box art.

Probably because you have never played a good example of "those types of games".

Baldur's gate has the greatest story of any game I have played. It was like playing an interactive book. Most RPG's start and you know exactly what you have to do, go kill the evil overlord or go save the world from X, Y or Z and become the hero. Baldur's gate had none of that, you only got parts of the overall story as you moved through the game and your end point was not know until the end. You were also not the "hero" for which any number of people could have taken your place, but rather working towards a more personal objective, more or less behind the sences which inadvertently saved the world. The story is so much more personal to your character then any that I've seen before or since, the only other one which come close is BaK. BGII was a fairly distance third, but other aspects of the game made is a worthy successor of BG.

My buddies showed me Baldur a couple times. I know both games are considered very good, but they just don't appeal to me for some reason. Dunno, maybe it's the magic stuff or something that doesn't get me that excited.

Yeah, they were really huge, big like textbooks.

The last proper box I bought was for "The Ship" in 2006, which came with fold out maps.
It only was in the DVD box size.

Fun thing is, that regularly I see budget re-releases of newer games (2-3 years old) that come in those age-old, huge boxes.

I've been meaning to do this but just never quite got around to it till today:

http://static.bf2s.com/files/user/8171/Games%20I%27ve%20played.jpg

Keep in mind I was only born in 1992 and if it wasn't for my brother who's 11.5 years older than me, I probably wouldn't have played much of anything from the 90s. I've been meaning to try Myst especially though
