Ah nice! A nostalgia topic :)

 

PC 1994:

Descent

Doom

Those are the first games I played on the PC.

There were other games and platforms prior to that and alot of other games on the PC after 1994, but I'll stay on topic.

i remember battle chess, it was awesome. it was unofficially my first hgame... haha, i liked to kill the queen with every piece i had the chance.

i saw gorillas many years ago, but never played it and of course the diablo and war craft series were awesome. i think i didnt have any social life... there are justa few games i didnt saw or played... well atleast i didnt played the 2d duke nukems, i found them terrible. :P

I rapidly fell away from PC games, as where I lived at the time didn't have much in supply. My family's computer wasn't that great, anyway. It played Battlechess fine, but anything above that and I think it might have melted. Instead, I went full console for years and years. I was a major SNES and Sega Genesis girl, then eventually Playstation and PS2. But once the latest generation of consoles came around, I found I just couldn't get into them. The systems were too expensive, the new controllers too gimicky. I returned to PC gaming a few years ago, and I realize now how superior to console games they really are. I just regret that it took me so long to make the switch.

 

But yeah. Gorillas was awesome.

ohh i forgot heretic. i didnt like it too much because was very similar to doom (of course john carmack and idsoftware). to be honest, id software were my favorite company until they made Rage. i really hope they can get my like again with Doom 4.

 

- Albion - one of the few i didnt played

-  Odyssey - one of my favorites

- Alone in the dark - i playeed the old ones until the console version. i hated it.

- CastleVania Series - i loved everyone of them (except the n64 version) and Symphony of the night its still the best. unluckily this is a console game. :P

-   Leisure suit larry - O_O?

- Blackthorn - just saw it but never played it.

- Metroid  SNES - loved the nes, gameboy(advance) and snes versions. i never had a n64 myself nor a game cube so i lost track of it.

- Abuse - didint played it.

- Xcom - loved the old ones.

- Settlers - amazing sim game. i enjoyed it a lot.

- The Frontlines - heard of it but never played it. :/

- Star Wars DOS game - I "almost" played all the SW old games. i had a rich friend who had them all and he lend them to me. :P

- Blood - Didnt like it too much. but still enjoyable.

- Daggerfall - I got a little dizzy playing this one but i still enjoyed it.

- Battlespire - same as daggerfall.

- Arena - curiosly, im a fan of TES games but i never played this one. :s

- Morrowind - loved it. cant say more.

-  MDK - woaaaa!!!!!!!! i remember this one, was very cool!! the hero was like venom + alien fusion. :P

-  Counterstrike 1.0 - i played CS, Condition Zero and Source. but from all, i loved the 1.0

- Halflife 1.0 - i still have a copy of the first halflife here in my shelf.

- Team Fortress 2007 - never liked too much.

- Painkiller - didnt like the fact the hero looked like Max Payne.

- King's Quest - Never played it.

- Might of Magic and heroes Series - Some of them i loved and some others i hated them.

- Ultima - pretty cool game.

- Dungeon siege - still playing the series.

- King richard - never heard of it. O_O?

- Stronghold series - played once. i need to check them out.

- Dragon's Quest - there are a lot of dragons quest, but if you are talking about the NES game, i loved it.

- Legend of zelda - i got the two golden nes games and the snes and gameboy. but as i didnt had a n64 console, i lost track of it.

- Wing commander - im not sure if its the same, but if this is the combat fly simulatar i loved it.

- Starcraft / Starcraft Expansion set - I waiting for the zerg exapansion, so that says it all. All hail Raynor.

- Warcraft/Warcraft III - i played the 3 series. the second one is still my favorite.

You're really missing out if you've never played the Metroid Prime series. Even if you don't like FPS, it's that good. Though Metroid Prime 1 is what purists consider to be closest to the "true" Metroid experience (that meaning, it's the most like Super Metroid).

 

However, do not touch Metroid: Other M with a barge pole. It is one of the worst games ever made. This is not subjective. Anybody who says otherwise is wrong!

yeah most people told me that. also that i missed the best Zelda games. the problem was that i didnt had enough money to have a sony ps and at the same time a n64 or game cube. when ps2 was released i even sold my old ps1 to get some games. at the same time i still bought pc games wich completely wasted my allowance. :(

now that i can afford those consoles (or an emulator in any case) i still have a lot of games i have to complete ... :s
