ITT: GRIT.

Post gritty games, rusty, covered in grime stuff, depressing ambience is a must.

Duke 3D is even more amusing when you consider that it's a group of Texan's impression of urban California.

Pretty much every game by Irem in the late 80s/early 90s is filled with either gross monsters or dystopic cities. I love it!

the original max payne was great for this. dingy apartments, junkies, mobsters, sad piano. also the tvs that would be running with those creepy shows. unfortunately the sequel didnt capture this vibe at all (except for the first time you go through that funhouse was kino)

I really do feel like LED/ LCD monitors still don;t really do older PC games justice. I remember playing Duke 3D on a Windows 98SE machine at 800x600 VESA mode, and the first environment Hollywood Holocaust would be completely drenched in black shadows. Even on the highest brightness settings, Duke 3D was a dark game. But then again, so was Quake, Carmageddon, Unreal/ UT, Aliens vs Predator, Thief series, and just about anything else I can think of. Even with some of the later source ports, Duke 3D always looked to bright on a LED screen.
