favorite "old" games

[James]

EDIT: I probably tried a hundred times to run Duke Nukem 3D on my 486DX2, but it just couldn't handle it. I believe the requirements for that game was a 60mhz system? And a 486DX2 is already max'ed out to 50mhz. I did play the game though on a later Pentium 2.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

I still have a 486 in my spare room here and it is a 66mhz

The only game I ran on it was DX ball 2

Wolfenstein 3D, Doom and its sequel; I loved chain sawing those four Commander Keens in that secret level! They were alright on a 486SX

 

A good FREEWARE RPG for the PC that ran only on DOS was Betrayal at Krondor. The game was released for free as free publicity for its sequel. I would post the link here but it's very easy to find!

Got an Amiga later. Cant remember actually what i played besides Kick off, but "It came from the desert" and "nuclear war" are some i remember.

 

On PC one of my fav games is Resident Evil.
