Commander Keen (esp. 4 and 6), Doom, Jill of the Jungle, Xargon, Jazz Jackrabbit, Tyrian, One Must Fall: 2097, ZZT. Those DOS games pretty much defined my childhood, at least for computer games. Honorable mentions to Crystal Caves/Secret Agent and Monster Bash, as well.

Does anyone know where I can fin that SUPER old Red Barron game?

mid 80's, Purple/pink plane, and you go back and forth dropping bombs on ground targets. On the second or third level a plane shows up to shoot you.

Graphics were on par, or worse than the first Invader side scroller.

Q-basic Gorillas.

Played and loved over 40 of those (diskette sections). Some of my all time favorites there. However, right now I can also think of a few Epic Megagames I also enjoyed like Solar Winds and Zone 66 which are not on that chart. Also, I loved the Legend of Kyrandia games which I cannot find on that chart either.

I had so much fun with DOS games back then. There was rec.games.computer those interesting dodgy warez sites/IRC channels which also helped in exposing me to games I wouldn't have originally tried/bought like UFO turning out to being one of my all time favorites. So hard to pick just one. I kept a 486DX4 all the way until 2008 when I by some madness I thought "DOSbox is plenty good now, may as well toss this old thing" and now I regret trying to escape my hoarding nature.

Here, some sounds to remember the times with:

mother fucking D/Generation. Every few months since I was 16 I would search for it from a vauge "old game I would play on my brother's dos comp as a kid that had an isometric point of view and neon colors" description, and a few weeks ago it showed up on a DOS essentials images someone posted. It's a great puzzle game and though controls can be frustrating, about as good as Another World .

Wizardry was my jam son. 6 and 7 on DOS, and even 8 later on Windows is pretty good. I never could beat any of them but it didn't matter because the journey was the best part. Hell even the character creation was interesting, races had actual different abilities. Sucked if you didn't know what you were doing, you'd find out many hours deep into the game that your party sucked. I've been feeling another bout of Wiz7 coming on as a matter of fact
