Really old games which are really good

[Captain_ClutchKick]

Quake 1, and its expansions. 12 years on and still very much among my favourite games :rolleyes:

[Who]

Toy Commander for the Dreamcast, much missed, as it is my favourite game ever. still play it occasionally

[Speed]

Tekken 3.

 

First game I completed.

 

Brilliant.

Midtown Madness <3

Motorcross Madness <3

Monstertruck Madness <3

Rollercoaster Tycoon <3

Zoo Tycoon <3

[Nige]

I agree with Mb:

 

Midtown Madness was the best game ever, I literally spent hours upon hours of just cruisin' around Chicago randomly :thumbsup:.

 

 

I only wish I could play it on my laptop but I can't :cry:.

 

Same goes for Midtown Madness 2 & 3 both excellent games but I can't play them :cry:.

NFS 3: Hot Pursuit

Half Life

Quake 2

Metal Gear Solid

[CarboyZR1]

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2

Midtown Madness 1-3 (Amazing game, but 1-2 only work on Windows 98 and I wish 3 was backwards compatible for the Xbox 360.)

[YeOldeTDUMan]

I remember playing DOOM for hours, over and over again. I used to be so good at that game. I had to sneak onto my dads old 486 when the shareware first came out

Quake was awesome also but the first game to have a huge impact on me was the original Unreal. It was just such a beautiful game! And so massive aswell, i spent hours just epxloring the maps. It had the precursor to UT, with bots too. Still have it in its original packaging along with Quake (that I borowed from a mate and never returned :o) and Anno 1602.

Still play them all occaisionally.

[Turkey Twizzler]

Dangerous Dave or something like that. I played it before 3 years. A neighborhood boy gave it to me on a Diskette - and now I don't now where is the Diskette and I can't find the game - it was on my 2nd computer :(

[GTAMADDOG]

Midtown Madness <3

 

:D

 

That game was excellent in the days of Zone.com. I used to come home from school every day find a new mod to download and install then I'd spend all evening online. Shame I was on dialup internet in those days, I always had to disconnect and reconnect before I'd been on for a full hour to apparently keep down the cost of me being online all the time.

 

Midtown Madness 2 had some great downloads. Had to love the Mustang GT with NOS which was capable of an insane speed of something like 1300MPH. Before I had downloaded it all I saw were a load of red Mini's flying around at 1000MPH. It made me laugh every time.

Midtown Madness 1 & 2, I used to go on Zone.com to play online, too bad they don't support CD games anymore :(

BRILLIANT GAME! I loved the intro movie to it, with the green Porsche crashing into the logo... classic.

[ShadowGT]

OMG i loved Test drive 3 as a kid as well as street rod 1 & 2. You can download them free from those links.

[DriftNismo]

- NASCAR '95 (my first ever game), brilliant game, the worst graphics ever but amazingly realistic.

- Tekken, another brilliant game. Stupidly hard, but very good. Same goes for 2 and 3, but they weren't hard.

- Gran Turismo, fantastic. At the time it was such a brilliant game, same goes for 2.

- Unreal Tournament, somehow so weird but so fun.

- MDK, another weird game that was fantastic.

- Pokemon Blue, the greatest handheld game of all time.

 

Will think of more later, off to play GTA:IV a bit.

[Guest RB26DETT]

Pokemon Yellow! Much more difficult than Red or Blue. :thumbsup:

 

NASCAR 98 was my cool too.

I actually quite enjoyed Midtown Madness especially the Mustang Fastback :D

 

Also I was really into the Crash Bandicoot series. I got one of them for Christmas a while back and spent the whole day playing it. So addictive!

[Little_ghost]

A lot of games I'd mention are already said but where are:

For consoles I can still remember the first time I played Mortal Kombat on the Sega Megadrive 16 bit, and ghost busters on my Atari 2600. :D
