I still have StarCraft: Brood War installed and until recently had Diablo 2 as well. I still occasionally play an RPG called NetHack which has been around since the mid 90's and continues to be updated by various programmers to this day.

X-Com and Star Control II are perennial favorites. SimTower is also great fun even today. SCUMM games will always be entertaining especially if you've never played a specific title - and with so many of them, who has played them all?

If MAME counts, I've got 4000+ games installed on a hard drive and there are literally hundreds of classics I still enjoy today, such as Crazy Climber, Golden Axe and Smash TV, not to mention playing your favorite arcade fighters (Street Figher 3rd Strike!) in their original, raw and unadulterated form.

Do play old games from time to time but I really wish I could get toonstruck working again.
by far the best non lucas arts point and click adventure for pc. Gawd I love that game.
Just to check, you've tried both DOSBox and ScummVM? Those are what I use to get my old point'n'clickers working.
And on topic, I play a lot of old point'n'click games.
yeah DOSbox works for me now although the audio is kinda fuzzy and I hate the cd loading times >:

Startopia. An old Muckyfoot game that is truly awesome.
I love that game, still play it every few weeks. :)

I also break out Birth of the Federation very few months, as well as MOO 2.

Morrowind, and both Fallouts count as old yet? Hmm...

Age of Empires 2 and Empire Earth. I pretty much only play old RTS games on my PC (Partly because it sucks).

Big on Star Control 2, Master of Orion 2, and X-Com. Also tend to dick around with Castle of the Winds quite a bit, if anyone remembers that old gem.

also adding to the list AOE2, Thief 1&2, Diablo and if i could get it to work Carmageddon.

Minesweeper and this pc only thread is discrimination to consoles every where.
Don't forget all the threads regarding console exclusive titles.

Or were you being sarcastic?

Oh boy, I get carried away with threads like these....so I better just list them all and be shush after that.

Deus Ex
Dungeon Keeper 2
Baldur's Gate 1+2
Fallout 1+2
Freespace 2
Unreal Tournament
Monkey Island 1-3
Alpha Centauri
Half Life

These are the most frequent oldies I guess, there are some others that I dust off every year or so but I end up removing those from the HD.
