What PC games did you play as a kid?

When I was younger, (elementary, like 7 or 8 or something) I played Challenge of the ancient empires, it was installed on the computer we had in the classroom.
 
Doom One. was the first shooter I ever played. Then came all the rest. Forsaken, Blood, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Descent, Some of the early Star Wars stuff, Unreal and Unreal Tournament. Duke Nukem 3D.
 
Manic Miner (Jet set willy), comedore64
Lotus Turbo, Amiga
Curse of monkey island, Amiga

How could i forget the duke! My step-dad had that game on his PC way back, awsome game. Funny too. I remember it was alot cooler then than it is now : (. Now its kinda boring, but i still have it on my PC. Fun to play every now and then.
 
I used to play Heroes of Might & Magic (the original) when my brother-in-law would visit. Only time I could play computer games since we didn't have a computer in the house until I was a junior in High School... After that, probably Starcraft (still play... :)), Diablo, that's all I can remember right now...
 
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....

lol no lord of the realms was kinda like a rts game. wow, so that was so long ago though! And ya, mega race was crazy! I remember the insane story line, crazy car guns, and the graphics! Blew me away. I know i still have it lying around somewhere...

Hey, I bet you played interstate 76 a little while after too, eh? :)
 
monkey island, and return to zork were the shizznit

and the pc version of mortal kombat blew my mind

my neighbor had it, and i was soooo jealous

i had the lowly game gear version

also once windows 3.0 came out, i got a tight game called adventure at the Smithsonian or something to that effect, made by sierra, which was also AMAZING

it was a collection of mini games and puzzles

Well when I was a kid we didn't even have a computer. We got our first one when I was like 14. I remember the first games I played when i was a teenager. These games are awesome older games and if you can get a hold of them, and run them check them out.

- Doom - the original
- Duke Nuke'em - man I loved shrinking people and then giving them the boot
- Original Warcraft
- Fallout series - the whole series was awesome highly recommended
- Day of the tentacle - just weird and funny
- Full Throttle
- Mechwarrior
- Command and Conquer
- Monkey Island (the original where you fight enemies with insults, it was funny)
- Kings Quest - that series was cool for a bit but always ended up impossibly hard
 
I totally forgot about the much older games I played a lot.
Sopwith Camel - For PC from 198x
Mario Brothers -NES
Duckhunt -NES
Rescue Rangers -NES
Bigfoot - NES
