Old Games!

by m1ke • 25 Nov 2011, 10:26 • Journals
Hello!

Inspired by the journal about the games that just got released (MW3,BF3,Skyrim,Saints Row etc.) and seeing i don't have the computer to run that shit I decided to look for some old games i used to enjoy.

Oddworld (Abe's Oddysee,Abe's Exodus,Munch's Oddysee,Stranger's Wrath)!

Might & Magic is toch door Nederlanders gemaakt?
Parent

Domi 25 Nov 2011, 14:16
QuoteMight and Magic (MM) is a series of role-playing video games from New World Computing, which in 1996 became a subsidiary of The 3DO Company. The producer of the series was Jon Van Caneghem.[1]

Might and Magic is considered one of the defining examples of early PC role-playing games, along with the Bard's Tale, Ultima and Wizardry series.[2]

Ultima 4: Quest of the Avatar
Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri
Planescape: Torment

Greatest games ever made as far as I'm concerned. Most computers will have no problem running these games. Although Ultima 4: Quest of the Avatar may be hard to get into due to it's unusual controls and manual 'DRM'. Planescape: Torment is an easy RPG to get into though, especially if you've played Baldur's Gate. Civilization and strategy players will feel right at home with Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

Also, Ultima 4: Quest of the Avatar is free.

http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/ultima_4

For you The Elder Scrolls and especially Skyrim fans, you may want to try the games that inspired them in the first place: Ultima Underworld and Ultima 7. I haven't played them myself, but a lot of old RPG fogeys hold them on a pedestal.
