Post your favourite old games. I remember back in the days of the Powermacs that every school had around here, there were these two games, one called Macninja, and another called stuntcopter. Stuntcopter was probably the funniest game I've ever played.

Another really good one I remember from when I was like 8 was Cobra Triangle, for the NES. I've searched and searched for another copy/a ROM of it, to no avail.

Hypercard!

I have a Macintosh SE and I have a TON of old games for it. What comes to mind at the moment is the original Dark Castle and Sim City B&W.

It sucks that you have to leave all the bison meat you blasted behind, sometimes.

i remember playin a game when i was like 8 or 9 on computer... i think it was called "lemmings" or something like that...... but the best game of all time in my opinion has to be Final Fantasy VII!!! it's not ALL that old, but it's the greatest!

I used to play these with a 386 Intel:

Dune - a good game. This was needed to create Dune 2
Dune II - the mother of all strategy games.
Commander Keen (all of them)
Duke Nukem 2D (all of them)
Wolfenstein 3D - the mother of FP games.
Doom II - the revolution of FP games.

Ah, flashbacks...

Oh and may I add to my list Quake 3 although that's not old in my oppinion as I played it about 2 or 3 years ago for the first time...

Dune!!
We played that ALL the time! It's like Command and Conquer/Warcraft, but DUNE! It was so awesome!! Ornothopters! Saboteurs! The Insidious Ordos!

My brothers and I and our friends also played Commander Keen!! Classic sidescroller platform action!!!!!

I also played old school games like Carmen Sandiego (we had Where in Europe and Where in the USA) for Apple IIGS! And Tetris, of course.

Some NES games I loved were Faxanadu, the FFs, Ninja Gaiden, Double Dragon. One of the best games I ever played for NES was Teenage Mutant Ninjas Turtles 3. Holy that game was good. Faxanadu was my second favourite, I think. I also liked Lemmings, but I didn't play it until the SNES version came out (I remember being blow away by the graphics on Zelda for SNES! It's 3D??????)
