What PC games did you play as a kid?

Well the first game I played on our own Family PC 7-8 years ago would have been rollercoaster tycoon and expansions. But my two top games from my first era of computer gaming was: Red Alert 2, Age of empires II: Gold edition and Shogun: Total war (currently very much in to its latest big brother Medieval 2: Total war). But years before this my family did have an Amstrad (which is still in the loft somewhere) from what I remember I had Top Gun, Gauntlet. And some others I have forgotten.
 
does cartridge and tape games on the coco2 count? :). I cannot remember many, lets see.

Dinowars (cartridge)
baseball (cartridge)... cannot remember name.
Pong (tape)... or it was a pong style game.

I just cannot remember!

Commodore64 at school games

- Pac-Man
- ghostbusters
- some caveman dude on a stone wheel, cannot remember name!
- airwolf (I think)
- dig dug

There was more but I cannot remember at this moment :(.

I played Red Alert, Red Alert 2, Tiberian Sun, pretty much all the original C&C games, Total Annihilation (still play this), Half Life (still an awesome game), and a little Myst. All on my cousin's old PII over several summer vacations.
 
Age of empires and sim city.

Well thats the only darn games that would work on that system:D

Lets not go down this road again, I for one couldn't care less how old ADE is, more over what it says in his profile.

As for me, Chips Challenge was a fantastic game along with Commander Keen and also Krypton Egg (The "breakout" of windows 3.1 lol)

Oh oh and also Pipe Dream, man those were good games, don't get classics like those anymore

Day of the Tenticle! I was maybe 9 when my dad bought me it and I thought it was the funniest game ever! Also Mega Race, Lord of the Realms, and Arthur! :)
 
Lord of the realms...that sounds familier....what was it about? Was it about this one kid..er something like that and at one level he.....uhh....gets buff like he just took some super steroid?......why do i have a feeling it had something to do with Earthworm Jim? lol. And Mega Race. I wish I still owned it. I beat it once, then whenever i got to a certain level it would freeze up....
