What's your favorite old computer game that you still have one your computer and still play.

Mines Oregon Trail. A great classic game. I've had it since it originally came out and still put it on every computer I own. It's one of those silly games that breaks the average routines of the day. I'm not even sure if anyone even remembers it. For those of you who don't, it was one of the few games that schools endorsed and let you play in school. Or atleast they let us play it when I was in elementary school.

We played Oregon Trail for a grade in my history class in 3rd or 4th grade.  Good game.

X-Com: UFO Defense is also an amazing game.  Different aliens are invading the earth, and you have to stop them.  Simple concept, amazing implementation.

guywithoutsocks:
Oregon Trail was a good game.  I don't know how many times my family died because I couldn't kill a stupid deer though.

For me, though, the mother of all old computer games was Karateka.  Simple, but just hard enough that I never got sick of it.  I also loved the fact that it had a 'bad' ending.

kokeyjoe:
Oregon Trail was crack for 3rd graders back in my day.  The days we got to go to "The Computer Lab" to play that was like Christmas.

And Karateka on Atari was the bane of my existence as a kid.  Those fights where the guys had birds to help them? Freaking impossible.

The oldest game I have that I'm still working on (and by that I mean I will probably never get around to beating it) is "Alice."  It's only from 2000, so it's not all *that* old, but I got soooo far on it before and then my hard drive died.  I've heard the ending is worth beating it, so I've never given up hope!

Don't we have this same thread in like a million different variations already?
