The only old games I can play are real classics. Civ2 and Colonization (even t hough I have the latest versions, I still like to rock it old school sometimes) are brilliant games and after about 1-2 minutes, you don't even think about the graphics. HOwever, I tried to play an old NFS and it was just sooo..... urgh. Old Fifa? Blergh! Old PES... well......... PES 6 was the greatest of the series and I still play that form time to time, but with 09 going back to its roots, it should be a thing of the past. I dunno, it depends. I mean the largest online mod is for a game thats like 8 odd years old. Go figure...
i dig the lesuire suite larry games and games like it.....why dont they bring games out like that any more?, those were so awsome.
i think it was larry 5 were you are in that hotel resort and had to try and get that lady in the penthouse, well thats what it came to anyways. even now when i think of it it seems so fun. so find all that stuff and put things together to go with the story.
I download many games from Abandonia... Very good website, IMHO. They even have the downloads for Red Alert (which became "freeware") a short while ago. Some good classics on there include Star Control 2, Blackthorne, The Goblins Series, Cannon Fodder, etc... Sooooooo many good classics!
