Default Your favorite classic games of all time.

I was wondering what are your favorite classic games of all time, any platform you like, DOS, Win95, Amega, Amstrad, Spectrum, SNES, etc

Personally I loved the interactive fiction like Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and Bureacracy, and also the trashy old cyberpunk games like Neuromancer, Hacker and the wonderful B.A.T. 2: The Koshan Conspiracy.

Once you've told me your favorites I'll go and source them and then test them with the methods that I've shown in the article to make sure you can get them working.

New Zealand story !

Anyone know where I can get a hold of it for my pc?

I also liked magic pockets and rainbow island lots.

At the moment I like playing settlers, which you could class as classic as its been around for ever!

Not heard of those, I'll have a look for some sources for you, and of course have a play myself

Valhalla, Sherlock and The Graphic Adventure Creator all on the 48 ZX Spectrum. Ah, those were the days when for £100 you could have the latest cutting edge technology in your own home and it came with a decent manual that actually taught you how computers worked! And decent games could be had for £1.99 (like Dizzy).
