Title: DOS game discussion
Post by: Mizuki on November 16, 2008, 01:19:43 AM
I'm a sucker for old games, heck it's where I started playing. Everything from Ultima VII, to Halloween Harry, to Doom, I've played a lot. Anyone out there still play them?

TIE Fighter ran on DOS.  That game was awesome.  Too bad it doesn't recognize any of my new fancy joysticks.

Oh the memories. You can not understand how happy I was to find a copy of that one day while at a local video game store. Haha. I played for hours straight. Good times.
I love playing Duke Nukem, Doom, and Doom II still. Can't remember if they were DOS or not, but the original Lovecraftian inspired Quake games were my all time favorites as a kid. :)

Tie Fighter was awesome, also Dark Forces, the Star Wars Doom clone was dope too.
