Retro PC favorites go!

Off the top...

Ultimate Doom, Doom II, Final Doom (if just one, Doom II. All the games were great but I like to pick a single game from a series in 3x3s)
Quake1&2
Blood
Carmageddon1&2
Blade Runner
CS1.6
C&C Red Alert
Prince of Persia DOS original
GTA

What can I say lots of FPS... but it used to be a damn good genre.

- Descent and Descent 2. Descent 3 is okay, but I'm not sure if it really counts as "retro".
- Monkey Islands, Sam & Max, The Dig
- Gateway (see pic) and Gateway 2. Somewhat obscure semi-graphical sci-fi text adventure games.
- Quake
- Duke 3D
- Blood
- The Incredible Machine games

I always liked the Monkey Island games. I played the first and second games and always wanted to try out the later ones. Tales of Monkey Island is pretty cool but not retro. I'm wanting to play more of the LucasArts adventure games.

>>1712641
They were both released in 1998 you ignoramus.

The add-on, made by Sunstorm Interactive (who also did the best addons for Duke3D, Blood, Shadow Warrior, etc), it's really good and tries to hide all the flaws of the origianl game.

Also the sequel, Rides Again In Arkansas, is FANTASTIC and VERY underrated. It fixes most of the flaws of the original game and has some incredible level design. Also those motorbike and swamp-vehicule levels are unique!
