[Zina]

Hide and seek.

[TheDXM]

Chess,
Devil May Cry 1, 3, and 4,
Deus Ex,
Ultima 7 TBG&SI, ( I wish my 64 bit OS didn't have such a problem with it )
Thief 1, and 2, ( sigh, incompatibility... Deus Ex didn't do this to me! )
Left 4 Dead,
Team Fortress 2.

At least those are the ones I don't see myself setting down for a long time.

[Tapewolf]

Ultima 7 TBG&SI, ( I wish my 64 bit OS didn't have such a problem with it )

Ultima 7 is essentially its own OS, at least where memory management is concerned.  It's been a problem ever since Windows 95 (Windows 3.1 you could get rid of when you wanted to do stuff)
Run it inside DOSbox with EMS switched off and it should be happy as Larry.  If you want, I can give you the config file I use.

Thief 1, and 2, ( sigh, incompatibility... Deus Ex didn't do this to me! )

So far, so good, though I'm still running those in W2K at the moment, I haven't tried them in W7-64 (Deus Ex worked).
I hear Thief and SS2 are getting a bit finicky in terms of graphics cards, tough.  Or rather, the manufacturers are getting lazy and dropping support for the video modes they use.

Metroid 2

Strange, never seen someone say that Metroid 2 is one of thier favorites

Metroid 2 has always been one of my favorites.  I'm part of that tiny tiny minority that actually enjoys that game.  I got my mother in on it too.  We go back and forth, trying to see who can finish it the fastest.  She's currently in the lead with an hour and eleven minutes.

I hear Thief and SS2 are getting a bit finicky in terms of graphics cards, tough.  Or rather, the manufacturers are getting lazy and dropping support for the video modes they use.

They are.  I believe that nVidia stopped supporting their graphics features after the version 147 drivers, and any card beyond the GeForce 8500 IIRC.  I can only run those games on my laptop, which is using an ATI Xpress.  The Catalyst drivers don't seem to have a problem with those games.

I wonder why?  I wouldn't have thought that emulating a 16bpp buffer on a native 32bpp display in software would really be all that hard.  Surely you'd just need a 64k lookup table.


Anyway, some of my old favourites:

8-bit
Jet Set Willy (Original ZX Spectrum version)
Monty On The Run (C64 version)
Auf Wiedersehen Monty (Spectrum 128k version)
Alchemist (ZX Spectrum)
Riptoff (ZX Spectrum)
Repton 3, Infinity (BBC Micro)
Citadel (BBC Micro)

PC
Doom, Doom 2, Heretic, Hexen
Simeon the Sorcerer
Monkey Island
Loom
Beneath a Steel Sky
Ultima 6-9
System Shock 1&2
Thief 1&2
Deus Ex
Arx Fatalis
Morrowind
Oblivion

...and probably many more I can't think of right now.

[Corgatha Taldorthar]

Ultima 6-9

Holla, you *liked* u9? 

[Tapewolf]

Holla, you *liked* u9? 

How can you not like a game which allows you to climb up mountains using a bottle, kill gardeners and children without any penalty at all, and cross oceans on bridges made from loaves of bread?

[Corgatha Taldorthar]

By remembering all the previous Ultima canon that the brutally butchered? I cried when I saw the broken glass in the  museum, from the case that held the runes that were stolen decades ago.

UNREAL 2

The trick is to pretend it's not an Ultima game.

Playing it right now

[Tapewolf]

I forgot to mention, although I spend an inordinate amount of time depriving Necromancers of their immortal souls in Oblivion (and finishing the anti-walkthrough one day, I promise) I am currently taking Mr. JC 'Joshua' Denton on a tour of New York committing random acts of terror peacekeeping.  Hence the picture that Ren drew.  Or rather, I am currently doing this because of the discussion Ren and I had while he was drawing the picture.

[hapless]

Hmm... Doom, Doom ][, first Unreal, first Half-Life, Deus Ex, Wizardry 7 and 8, Jagged Alliance 2, Earth 2150... and that would be it. I haven't played a game since quite a few years.

[TheDXM]

I hope it's almost as good as locking Walton Simons in the closet and putting UNATCO into the state of a functional mad house.

Best wishes, oh Lord and Master of Mischief.

[Brunhidden]

i miss Dungeon Keeper 2

oh vista, why must you hate my games so?

[Forycles]

I 'lurve'(is it rude to put it in quotations?):

Disgaea DS
Soul Calibur II for GC

A lot of the games I own, I guess.

Bit of a spoiler: I almost cried at the end of this game!

[bill]

this almost almost makes me want to play Unreal II, it was received badly when it was released, if I remember right
