The only thing I'll boot up an old Windows install for is Roller Coaster Tycoon or Sim City 2.

I'll occationally go back and play Ocarina of Time too.

As for the not-so-old games, I have a lot of find memories playing Halo with my sister, and I would love to get another game of halo going with her again, possibly at thanksgiving, but it would involve several hours of fiddling around with software to get it working because I no longer have an XBOX.

And for the extra old games, Go takes the cake. It's almost 2600 years old!

Good old sim city 4! Came out in 2003 I believe, actually not only do I play but I have made several mods myself for it!

C&C tiberian sun

now that one was good. If you liked it, you'd also have liked Total Annihilation.

i too love both Star Wars Battlefront games.

My favourite old game is Ascendancy. Its a great 4X game with turnbased spacebattles and strange Alien Races

It had 3 Dimensional Star systems and Starmaps and a great soundtrack.

I tried to learn Ascendancy once. It's very complicated.

It is hard at first but once you get the idea it is a great game. i even prefer it over Masters of Orion.

[General Rarity]

Every game in Command and Conquer, The First Decade. I also like the early versions of Trainz railroad sim.

[Spartwo]

It introduced me to gaming(In 2003 though)

[Grove]

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and Vice City. And Sim City 4 of course.

[nyrath]

Ogre

WarpWar

Triplanetary

Homeworlds

[The Destroyer]

hmmm.

I'd say baris.

Or roller coaster tycoon 2. I played it for years.

Correction!

Motorcross Madness!

[Tremzack]

Ahh, my favorite would have to be the first Ratchet and Clank, in 2002

[AntonioAJC]

Halo Combat Evolved ^.^

One of the first FPS games I've played that I spent years playing.

[Capt.Joseph Kerbertson]

Mechwarrior 3 coupled with my sidewinder force feedback joystick... sweetness.

Me and the guys at my fire station had delta force land warrior set up on lan... 16 fire fighters after hours going at it... hilarity ensued every shift.

[Xeldrak]

Thats easy: X-Com: Enemy Unknown

Not, not this one...

This one!

Oh, how many nights have I spent defending Earth from these aliens?

[MalletFace]

I have seen many titles I still play every single day in this thread. There is Age of Empires II, Command and Conquer, Roller Coaster Tycoon, And Battlefield 1942.

If I had to pick one game from way back when, it would have to be Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2, and its expansion. The campaigns' stories were extra cheesy, and the game looked like you were playing with toys, but that is the game I have probably loved the most.

Seeing the name of this game mentioned anywhere outside of a Command and Conquer forum also makes me a little happy, especially when a picture of Yuri himself pops up.

Yes very complicated I heard that they are currently making a sequel though.

[Rosco P. Coltrane]

Red Baron II/3D from 1997, probably the fest flight sim I know. Man I played that game sooooo much. Too bad I can't make it work with a modern PC.

And Age Of Empires II, I still play it on a regular basis.

[Mr. Pseudonym]

Lego racers. Hands down the best racing game ever. Seriously.

[Awaras]

Besides the original XCOM, the two games that I have sunk by far the most time in are Elite II: Frontier and Master of Orion II.

KSP is the only game that came close to these classics in recent years in my mind...

I always wanted to play it, but could never get it to work.
