Another thing that was stupid was if you would randomly kill someone in the middle of nowhere, all of a sudden every guard in the entire kingdom would suddenly know about it.

I recently found a copy of Dungeon Keeper 2 and although it was a bit of a struggle to get it to run on Windows 7 64-bit, I got it running. It's still a great game, and I needed a break from my PS3.

I love gog.com (Good Old Games) for finding the classics. They get old games, patch them up and tune them up for modern OSs then, if needed, package them with a preconfigured DOS box setup so it plays right out of the box. Most games are dirt cheap too which is cool. I've bought quite a few games from them to relive the golden days.

Never came across this site. Finding some classics and some great looking games I never had a chance to be exposed to. Nice!

Wow, what a great site Tom...After scrolling through I saw Lords of the Realm, one of my favorites from long ago. I feel the need to play that right now.

Yeah I have actually repurchased games that I had the discs for just cause they already did all the work for me. Beats the hell out of having to mess with DosBox or fight with compatibility issues when you can buy it there for 5-10 bucks.

aww snap! nice thread

since my wife and i moved in together we have been decorating our place "modern boho" which means we don't have a TV or anything, just a retro 50's radio, an old typewriter, and some art hanging on the walls above our retro steamer trunks. that means no consoles.

so i rock the mac osx emu scene pretty hard. SNES9X, DOSbox, Yabause for Sega Saturn, Genesis Plus, busted out Final Fantasy 7 on the PCSX (i still have my original discs that play in my mac now).

though i've stopped playing recently, one modern MMO did catch my eye for a long while, the French anime-stylized Dofus. Anyone do that one?
