    Sam & Max Hit the Road is one of my favorite DOS games EVER.
    The Dig and Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis are right up there with Sam & Max, as well.

    Edit: Oh, and don't forget Day of the Tentacle.
     
  5. I remember playing command and conqueror tiberium sun and red alert..waaaaaaayyy back in the day
     
  6. The origional sim city has just come out of license... you can get a freeware version (I had it on linux)... its great fun for a while.
     
  7. Oh also I'm not sure when it came out but roller coaster tycoon 1 and 2 are fun and graphically light weight. If you get 1 its advised that you get the expansions. Both come on one disc.

    If you get roller custer tycoon platinum the graphics are superb..but you need a good graphics card to run it without lag..i love that game
     

  9. Daggerfall is fucking RIDICULOUS..... its one of the biggest games (in terms of the size of the playable area) there is.... The size is compared to the twice the size of Great Britain..... you can fast travel of course, but you lose time and skill points doing it (well, you dont lose points, but you miss out on the massive amount of shit inbetween locations to level up your shit...)

    But be warned... since its so old, it has serious issues keeping itself running, on almost any OS after fucking win 2k.... save often, it will crash lol
     
  10. I have a friend who swears by the original Battlefield Vietnam. He's a huge gamer nerd and still talks about how great that game is. I love the vietnam DLC for battlefield bad company 2.

    Its so cheap I've thought about buying it too. I'll admit he's led me astray before though. He convinced me to buy MAG. Good premise. Shitty game.

    BF 1942 and Vietnam are so awesome hahahah that franchise has come a long fuckin way. But I also agree.... MAG is just lacking something... I don't own it but I've played for many hours at my friends, I dunno what it is, but its not grasping
