Forums - Gaming - Looking to play some old PC games

And I'm looking for suggestions. Thus far, I think I'm going to go back and play Deus Ex, Planescape, and Grim Fandango again. Maybe toss in Baldur's Gate while I'm at it.

Any ideas on what else I should search for?

Arx Fatalis is a pretty awsome action RPG

System Shock 2: if you like Bioshock.

The Path: really creepy, atmospheric game.

The Secret Of Monkey Island




Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Looks like Duke Nukem 3D and Vampires: The Masquerade - Redemption are six bucks a pop.



You should try out Fallout 1 & 2.



BTW, you should buy those good ol' PC games from http://www.gog.com/en/frontpage/ if you weren't going to already.



X-COM, X-COM. I can't recommend it highly enough. I think they even have it on Steam. I know I got it with the 2K pack, or one of the other multitudes I bought.

Also Heroes of might and magic 3. That sucks up hours and hours of time.  I also highly recommend Alien vs Predator 2, much better than the one that just came out. I played a lot of Warcraft 2, but that's one game that had games top it. I'd also suggest

Edit: Looking at my CDs here some more. Thief 2, definitely Thief 2.

Edit 2: Duke Nukem 3D, if only because of the shrink and freeze ray, and the strippers.

i'd suggest age of empires (take your pick whether it be 1, 2, 3, or any of the xpacs) but those games only really shine online. There not the best single player games but may be worth a look.



Nox perhaps? Have you played Stone Prophet? One of the coolest RPG's of all time!
I also always return to the two first Thief games every time I play Deus Ex again (roughly once every year) and I'm currently playing Syndicate!

Oh my god... I forgot about Nox. I used to play that game so much before I got Diablo 2. The wizard was broken in multiplayer.



Buy The Ultimate Haunted House.

I don't even know where you'd find this game these days, but it's so worth buying.



 

 

Ooh, forgot about the Thief games. I'll definitely add those.

I just played Fallout 1/2 less than two years ago. No need to revisit those games.
