If you haven't played it, you really must. It has the best story I have seen in any video game (and I've played a lot of games).

Pity Invisible War sucked so much, who had the stupid idea to make all the ammo exactly the same?

Interesting what some of you classify as classics. I'm starting to feel old.

@JON.ANTONSSON
I liked Grim Fandango and Monky Island 4 too. But I think they'd been better in the old style. Not lowres like MI1+2 but Point+Click instead of this 3D stuff which I found quite annoying sometimes. 3D Point&Click would be a nice concept.

Age of Empires: Age of the Kings if thats classic. Its still one of my favourite games because the music is so damn relaxing.

I have the menu music for AoE II and the expansion in Mp3.. I used to sleep to it. The most cosy Main menu of a game ever.

Super Street Fighter 2 was great and Doom - the original deathmatch (even if it was limited to 4 players).

Single player - The Lucasarts and Sierra adventure games were great!

Sam & Max, Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, Space Quest etc. Oh and Discworld.

They don't make 'em like they used to. Who needs 3D graphics anyway.

How do you make all those games work, from that page. There are loads of old games that I would like to play again. There is something you should do about DosBox or whatever it is....

BTW here is another game that I played all the time before, I was always Harkonnen.

Well you gotta be Harkonnen - much more fun, and the evil looking mentat just sweetens the deal.

I find Dune 2 too cumbersome to play now though, only select one unit at a time, very frustrating.

Betrayal at Krondor
http://koti.mbnet.fi/jonneweb/img/pelit … ondor1.jpg
The first RPG and what got me hoocked on games, read the entire series of books too.

But my all time favourite game was Baldurs Gate.
http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Ar … s-gate.jpg
It had so much to it. So many different things to do and so balanced. BG II was also good but a step below BG.

All of you stop typing now, Baldur's Gate wins. I thought Baldur's Gate 2 was better, but only because of Irenicus and his tree of life thing going on. Plus he was a total badass.

Jesus the memories in those 2 games. What did people do before nostalgia?

Well, the moonstone stuff freaked me out to no end. You just uncovered childhood memories for me. I have recurring dreams about that game, and now i remeber watching my brother play it whils i must have been 4 or 5.

M1 Tank Platoon (1989), Microprose. - Like BF2 with more tanks and no infantry...ahhh heaven

Panzer General (1994), SSI - tabletop wargame on a computer monitor - brilliant
