Playin' with all my old amiga games thanks to UAE and amiga in a box. What are you favorite games of old? To me it was anything Psygnosis (lemmings, walker, SOTB, etc)and some other stuff like Knights of the Sky, Wings of Fury, Starglglider 2, Another World, Flashback, Sim City, some AD&D games(Death Knights of Krynn stands out), Defender of the Crown, Populous, and Star Control.

There's prolly more but memory fails me. Damn I miss those days. Oh and Sinbad! How could I forget Sinbad =P

I've always been a total adventure whore.. especially anything by Sierra (especially King's Quest 2, my all time favorite Sierra adventure).. Beneath A Steel Sky was quite amazing as well.

Anything by Cinemaware .. when I was a kid, that stuff was the tops. I still remember seeing It Came From The Desert for the first time in a coputer store when i was like 12, totally blew me away. It was no Rocket Ranger or Three Stooges, but hey.. it was good :)

> Shadow of the Beast 1 & 2

Shadow of the Beast had totally AMAZING music.. but man those games weren't that good. They were just too damn HARD. But oh yea.. the music was tops :)

yeah, those games were not the best gameplaywise, but I like the atmosphere in both parts (besides the first Shadow of the Beast was a real eyeopener back in itīs day)

Yeah I remember being floored by the amazing musical score they arranged for that game. It was a bitch of a game but disciplined myself until I could make it to the castle in one try with a good chunk of energy. I couldn't even imagine now....I'd have no patience =P Thank god for trainers.

Some others I've always liked that weren't on your list:

* Nebulus by Hewson (a.k.a. Tower Toppler from Epyx)
* Night Shift by LucasArts, and anything else from LucasArts for that matter, like Loom, Monkey Island I and II, Maniac Mansion...
* Gods by Bitmap Brothers, and anything else from Bitmap Brothers for that matter, like Magic Pockets (what exactly was he doing with his hand in his pocket?), Chaos Engine, SpeedBall I and II (Brutal Deluxe!)...
* Populous II by Bullfrog (OK, so Populous was on your list, but the Trials of the Olympian Gods let fry your enemy with lightning bolts and Rain of Fire--gotta love it!)

I grew up with an Apple IIc.

My favorites then ans still some of my all time favorites now are

Any of the Infocom games.

The Wizardry series

The Ultima series. BTW, a group of fans are remaking Ultima 1 with modern technology.

The Bard's Tale series.

Anyone remember Spare Change

Penguin Software's (now known as PolarWare) Transylvania

Legend Entertainment's Spellcasting series

Aztec

Castle Wolfenstein (The Original)

and there more and more and more...

Should I go on?
