Baldurs Gate 2: Shadows of Amn

Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain

Final Fantasy VII

StarCraft

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic

I think Fallout III will eventually reach a spot here, though it's hard to compare it to the above games I simply haven't had the time to play it through as many times or come back to it after a long break and still be enamoured by it.

Knowing how you feel about Fallout III, those must be damn good games.

I forgot about Baldurs Gate. I played the first one, which was a lot of fun. I tried to play the second one immediately afterward, but I thought that it was just a bit redundant.

...

And Angra reminded me... Monkey Island for PC was fantastic, as well as the Maniac Mansion games.

I loved Mario Cart, though I only played it for the Gamecube.

Baldur's Gate 2, managed to reall endear me a great deal more. The mechanics and design is much the same whereas the scale and probably somewhere around triple that of the original and the characters are that much more fleshed out. I still get a giggle of some or the absurd Minsc would randomly proclaim or the advise he'd offer from his "Space Hamster" Boo. It was also much darker in tone, comparatively I look at the original and it feels a little too "Fluffy".

Plus it had Jon Inrenicus, a wonderful voiced pompous arch villian and one of my favorite antagnists.


And Angra reminded me... Monkey Island for PC was fantastic, as well as the Maniac Mansion games.

Oh Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle and Sam and Max... the laughs you gave me. I am not ever a fun of those puzzle click and point adventures but the sheer hilarity of thoes games endear me enough to see them through.

That skull in Monkey Island... so funny.

YES! Sam and Max and Day of the Tentacle were LOADS of fun! I can't believe that I forgot about Sam and Max! That was such a silly well-constructed little romp. :D

All of the Monkey Island games were great as well as the Day of the Tentacle's prequel Maniac Mansion. I loved those old adventure games, from the irreverent Space Quest games to Full Throttle which was like a playable animated feature. The Dig had a kick ass story line too... I need to go get dosbox.

When I was like 7 I played this PC game... It was almost like Duke Nukem, but I think it had 'gold' in the name, and it's name was the main character.
I can't remember the name of it, and it's really bugging me... :(
I loved that game!

A lot of apogee games were pretty similar.
There was duke nukem, the commander keen series, there was dangerous dave, there was jazz jackrabbit, blake stone (one of those had gold in the title?), hocus pocus, crystal caves, and my personal favourite "secret agent".
Good old games they were - most available for free download now ha.

Blake Stone!!!
Ok, maybe the gold just stuck out for no reason at all...
I'm an odd little duck when my mind deserts me.

Ok. Fine. I'm just a ditz. :rolleyes:

All great games. I remember playing all these old DOS games back in the day. Hocus Pocus and Jazz Jackrabit are great, Duke Nukem goes without saying.
Remember this intro? classic!
