alot of old console games are classic and we just wana (and actualy do) play them again. because of their simplicity and fun but i never hear about pc game classic ppl play again. it's like they are just not cool or something.
we all remember old console game with nostalgia but never any pc games. sure we loved some pc games back in the days. but it's like we would never install them again. id rather have fond memories about games on pc i played than loading them again. i expect an old console game to look how it does. i tend to amplify the graphic of old pc game and when i see them im shocked in horror or just dont seem to see what i used to.

I think it's been mentioned elsewhere in this thread, but use http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/. Since 0.62 there are very few DOS games it cannot run.

Ah yes, I forgot Mech Warrior II.
If you haven't played it, you're not a gamer. Period.

Hm.. I think I tried dosbox once before but had problems getting it to work at all. And now that I have 2 computers it isn't really a problem anymore. Thanks for the tip anyway.

I still have a copy of Might and Magic VI kicking around that I play fairly regularly. I've also got all or most of the King's Quest, Space Quest and Leisure Suit Larry games kicking around somewhere. Lemmings was definitely a childhood favorite, too. Also, Fallout.
I've always been bummed at how frustrating it can be to
1) get a hold of old games
2) Get them to run
3) Get around some copy protection BS that is irrelevant these days (Sure the code books were fun, but to use ahalf tattered PDF?)
4) Get around some interface confusion or gameplay pitfall.
But if you get past all previous 4 steps, shit gets awesome.

Hahaha, what. Right now I have the following old games installed: Jagged Alliance 2, Fallout 1 and 2, Wizardry 8, Starlancer, Majesty + expansion, Populous 3 and Dungeon Keeper 2. And I don't even play them because of "LOLNOSTALGIAGOOGLES", I play them because they offer something games nowadays don't.

Myst indeed, brother. Playing that at a young age in an empty room made it the first game to scare me. Now, what about You Don't Know Jack?
