What computer games did you used to play?

I'm talking early 2000's maybe even into the late 90's. Games that didn't take half your hard drive and didn't have the best graphics and huge worlds.
MMORPG's excluded.
My list goes something like: Lords of Magic Ceasar 3 Heroes of Might and Magic Return to Krondor Command and Conquer
What you guys got? I'm looking for a good time killer.

Jedi Knight II: Outcast. Excellent game, SUPER fun to play, very very cool game I highly recommend it.
Civilization 3. If you like strategy games, this one will suck your life away. Fun, but steep learning curve.
Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption. Earlier game, really really cool story line and great graphics for its time.
Thief II. Shitty graphics, AWESOME gameplay. This one is so much fun, and in my opinion, much better than Thief 1 and Thief III. Play it, it's great.
Baldurs Gate II. And the expansion Throne of Bhaal, if you can get it. I seriously believe this is the greatest expansion pack to any game ever made. Baldur's Gate II was a great game, so if you like RPGs, try it out. You won't regret it.

playing fallout2 is an ABSOLUTE NECESSITY!!
have you ever got pissed how you have to pay for everything in rpgs? not anymore, just steal it!!
ever gotten bored and pissed you weren't allowed to attack NPCs? shoot that little girl in the face, massacre an entire town, or kill every person in the game if that's your fancy!!
the original fallout is probably good too, but I haven't played it so i can't recommend it.
(tips: patch the game BEFORE you start, QUICK SAVE HOTKEY OFTEN!!!!!, playing a good guy will make the game easier but playing a bad guy is much more fun)

For me it went Wolfenstein 3D -> Doom -> Doom 2 -> Duke Nukem 3D -> Half-Life (and then Counterstrike)
That's the start of 3D gaming (for me) to the beginning of the 2000's.

xenogears [the original]
final fantasy 7
metal gear solid
starcraft
counterstrike
porsche unleashed
i also played asheron's call for a while and made some money doing it [sort of like World of Warcraft, but it came out about 5 years before it and was much, much more fun in my opinion - WoW SUCKS]
any games with donkey kong
i miss games from the 90s, they relied so much more on deep plots, strong character backgrounds, and excellent gameplay than fancy graphics alone

I used to play this terrible MMORPG way back in the day by Sierra... pretty much the only thing to do was kill rats.
I can't remember the name. It was simplistic. "The Realm" maybe. That sounds right.

Planescape:Torment. Maybe the best pc game of all time and no one has heard of it.
Civilization II.
Alpha Centauri. Picks up where Civ 2 left off. One of the best games no one has heard of.

Yeah they made some really anime looking sequel on the ps2 I think, it was total crap I heard it was so lame I never considered trying it myself. I was told it didn't follow the original story very much, the voiceovers sucked and cutscenes were long, complicated, and long.
Some other favorite games of mine were Star Ocean, Shattered Galaxy (still, very fun) and Super Smash Bros (good god, I must have spent at least a year of my life in waking hours playing that game with friends - so addicting)

Back in the early/mid 80's (high school for me) I had an Apple IIe. The only game that I remember playing a lot was Castle Wolfenstein.
Then I was out of it for 10 years or so. I finally bought a state-of-the-art IBM Aptiva in '96. The first game I played on it was "Myst". I fell in love with adventure games and have played them since. The entire Myst series has been epic, and the Zork series was great also. And theres a bunch of others in the same genre that I've played. I get them all mixed up anymore. Recently I've been playing Schizm II (played the first one a couple years ago).
Oh, and I played a lot of flight sims for a while, but not in the last few years.

Hmmm, well a long time ago, games like Dark Forces, DOOM, Wolfenstein 3d, Full Throttle, Cyberia, Need For Speed 2, and the Descent series were my daily bread.
No One Lives Forever 1 (2000) and 2 (2003) are probably my all-time favourite games though. They were just simply fucking mindblowing.
More recently, I've really enjoyed Fable, the Grand Theft Auto series, and Half Life 2 (especially Deathmatch, which I pretty much dominate).
Can't forget to mention World of Warcraft, either... Man what a game. I was the world first player to have a Felstriker (then 'Deathstriker') dagger, heh. The first year of WoW was just so damn much fun, before item databases and websites like Thottbot spoiled the mysteries of the game, and turned it into a damn grindfest.

I was a poor lad, so i didn't always have the best up to date systems. I still make each PC last 5-6 years via upgrades. Anyway, i tried a lot of games, but stuck with a select few(*):
Doom* X-WING* (so underated. Best space flight sim of its time) Starcraft* Half-life Black and White Worms: Armaggedon GTA 1 + 3

I do dig risk, stratego, and chess, but I'm looking for a serious "I have an hour to kill between classes" strategy type game.
I just went through and beat the game Lords of Magic which haunted me throughout my middle-school years, it was a lot easier now. Anyway it's a fun little fantasy strategy game with genocidal undertones, it's great.

ever gotten bored and pissed you weren't allowed to attack NPCs? shoot that little girl in the face, massacre an entire town, or kill every person in the game if that's your fancy!!

I won't list all the games I've played since it sounds like you're just looking for games you haven't played yet. So here are some suggestions.
-Dungeon Keeper 1 or 2 -Seven Kingdoms II - The Fryhtan Wars -Asheron's Call (Costs to play, and populations are dwindling, might stay away from this one, but I played it for over 5 years) -Star Control 3 -Maple Story (Free MMO that can kill some time) -Anarchy Online (see above) -Shadowbane (^^)

Back in the late 80's, we had a Zenith IBM Compatible home computer. I don't remember the hardware specs, but we had two 5.25" floppy drives. I played games like Ms. Pacman, Space Invaders, Ikari Warriors, Win Lose or Draw, Funhouse, Wheel of Fortune, Casino, etc. We had a 3 color RGB monitor, no green screen for us!
The only drawback to having a home computer that early in the game was that my parents used it as an excuse for the next 10 years to NOT buy us any real game consoles. So that Zenith computer was all I had for gaming until about 1996. :/

I started on HG when the game came out, but switched over to DT as soon as the server opened. I spent most my life on DT, but would level characters on other servers once PKl came out. If you were around when that happened...

Nah, I bailed and saved my soul a while after the first expansion came out.
That shit was a serious addiction, and I honestly felt liberated when I let it go.
However, I must admit there is a twinge of nostalgia at the idea of playing again.

Haha, that's what kept me around all that time, the damn nostalgia. The 5 years wasn't solid, but more like one of my friends saying "Hey, I have an account that I rarely play anymore. If you at least level a little bit, you can use it."
And I would, because I missed the game. The addiction never ends, I still want to go back and kill some people...

That's the kind of list I was looking for. I'm going to check out the first two and go from there. Probably won't go to full MMO but I do remember Shadowbane being talked up quite a bit when I was still playing Evercrack however many years ago.
