You said it all guys, Doom, Worms 2D, Prince of Persia, Nemesis/Gradius, Keen, awesome games.
Fun fact, I'm taught at my school by the developers and creators of Appeal, AKA developers of Outcast, I was pretty amazed when I found out about it. Too bad we'll probably never see outcast 2, got to stick with CryENGINE's version...
You better study well then ! =)

bunch of loosers for not mentioning:

Golden Axe (amiga)

and

Warhammer Dark Omen

fun fact:
warhammer dark omen is still played, and got even monthly tournaments ;]



cannon fodder (amiga) - didnt knew what saves are back than, so we played those games on one run back than ^^
sensible soccer (amiga) - and its immortal tournaments with everybody from the Neighbourhood
barbarian (c64) - first game i ever played ;] how much effort you had to put to calibrate the tape to get the game working back than ;] and on our forums its very similiar version to what i remember

My first computer addiction was all games that played on a commodore 64.

1) Defender of The Crown:
(click to show/hide)

2) Power at Sea:
(click to show/hide)

and finally Gina Sister:
(click to show/hide)

Dune 2 should have an honorable mention as well. My first game on a 386 with a soundblaster 32.... damn that sound!

I love going trough games like these :D I always find an old game that I never heard of and I can track it down and play it. So much good old stuff :D

Although I am kinda worried since a lot of games I played when I was a kid is here.... Am I getting old?
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

Also, this had so Epic music, I was blown away back then at 1998. Frank Klepacki is a fucking genius at music writing.

Do I really have to link these two classics?  8-)

Are we all old farts here?

Here's a C64 game:
Red Storm Rising. A sub sim, truly primitive graphics. I have not found one as fun since.

Star Control 2

The X-wing games.

All things Bullfrog, especially magic carpet.

Heavy Gear - Unbalanced, and to top it off, occasionally defeating an opponent so bad his character gets deleted after a funeral scene. Mechs on roller skates.

Mechwarrior 2, 3, 4

and...
Jane's Longbow. Disguised as a game, a helicopter training sim. Two hour stealth missions, woo hoo!
Alas nodachi
remembers glorious spring
a tin can's hatchet.
