And I killed that horrible husband of Dink's aunts after a while, by punching him in the head through a wall about 3000 times. That was a great glitch, he used to kill me every time I tried hitting him fairly, but then he got stuck. :D
That game was pretty cool, such a nice little chap too (Dink) :D

@ fable

That game reminds me of Harpoon, if only I had that game *sigh*

Another great game from Koei.

Inindo (Way of the Ninja) would be another one I have played on and off for years.

Paid ..$5.00 for it used. :D (One of my better deals)

I too, still play uncharted waters on the SNES; along with FIFA int'l soccer/football.

On my NES, RC ProAM and SMB3 still get use.

The SEGA system is still turned on once in a while for sonic the Hedgehog 2 and 3.

Occasionally, I'll try to turn on the appleIIe for a game of Lode Runner or Telengard.

I can't leave out Dark Castle and Crystal Quest for the Mac.

Def scorched Earth (freeware!), the X-coms (i even have the new X-com, X-com interceptor where you fly in space), Civ 1, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Antlantis (the voices dotn work for some reason now, maybe cuz its too old of a game?) Sam and Max, Prince of Persia, and Simant, simtower, simcity.
It's pretty easy, I mean just go kill a dragon, get laid.

Hm interesting thread :)

Old games let's see. I play a lot of old games every once in a while. My favourites are:

Ultima 6/7/8 no comment :D

Ultima Underworld I/II The legendary first persons RPGs need no reason to be played. I just love the vastness of this games and the difficulty they have.

Gabriel Knight - Sins of the fathers A masterpiece adventure from the once-best-adventure-game-developer Sierra. I don't know why i like this game so much, i consider it the best adventure game ever, and i still play it :)

Darksun 1 & 2 This games are probably very old. The first D&D games i've played.

That’s all i can remember for know :)

Ogre Battle for the SNES. still keeps me entertained for hours.
Here where the flattering and mendacious swarm
Of lying epitaths their secrets keep,
At last incapable of further harm
The lewd forefathers of the village sleep.

Goldenaxe! I also love Sam & Max Hit the Road, although I'm not sure it's seven years old....Why all these discussion threads all of a sudden BTW @Fable :) ?

How about chess? No?

I still go through a phaze every so often of needing square-eye arcade games from way back, and find myself downloading hundreds of dodgy Shareware Breakout clones...

Absolutely. So was Bandit Kings of Ancient China. Btw, if you like that kind of thing, @Weasel, check out King of Dragon Pass, at http://www.a-sharp.com. Very similar in some respects to the KOEI games, though with more RPG elements.

I do miss you dearly

Man weasel your sooo right, Uncharted Waters was a BAD ass game. Pirating on the open sea... so much fun... I miss it.

I jump on my Mario Bro's all the time outa boredom. But a good game that I miss horribly that I would play constantly if I had the system was Mutant Leauge Footbal...

For me, it was first X-wing, but then my obsession for 3 years was Tie-Fighter. Best game ever. Chalk up another for Lucasarts. ;)
