    Great old and forgotten pc games

    Hey guys. I run around a lot looking for some older games that i didn't get to play back then when some things were fresh. I was hoping people could list some of the older games that you might not be able to find just anywhere in the popular list like on steam or youtube searches and what not. One such game that I have found is "Indigo Prophecy"


    And another great oldie is the game Prey

    this game is not that old by most pc player's standards, but I loved it and played it to death It started off as a mod for unreal tournament, then released as a standalone game. Its basically a CS clone, and even had some of the same maps, dust 1&2, aztec etc. The difference was that it was fast, and didnt have crouch firing, so it was more about running around and really having a blast

    this video is of a really imba player

    Don't know if people remember this game - Diablo II. I thought it was a pretty good game for it's time.

    Does Freespace count as old? I miss that whole genre, where'd it go?

    Warzone 2100 was one of my all-time favorites. Especially when you unlocked Howitzers.

    I also absolutely loved Tribes 2

    Ultima VI, VII (both Black Gate and Serpent Isle). Both great games for their time. Probably need to play them on DOSBox or something like that. Great story to each of them.

    Star Control 2 is now available free to the community and is the predecessor to games like mass effect. It is easily one of the best games ever made.

    “A man will contend for a false faith stronger than he will a true one,” he observes. “The truth defends itself, but a falsehood must be defended by its adherents: first to prove it to themselves and secondly, that they may appear right in the estimation of their friends.”
