Hmm, my pc currently has installed Diablo 2:LoD, Starcraft:BW, Freelancer, MDK2, The Incredible Machine (yeah that's right, the first one!) and Rogue....

I'm not sure Starcraft counts though, because I'm not actually replaying it
i also regularly pull out Alien Legacy (sierra ~early 90's strategy game), Alien Versus Predator 2 and Primal Hunt, Jedi Outcast and Academy, Age of empires 1&2 and Civilization 2.

I've long given up trying to get syndicate to work on a modern computer, but Syndicate Wars runs albeit a little fast.

Also i had to laugh last time i tried to install Wing Commander 3- I got an error message telling me the game would not install as my CD-ROM drive was registering as being faster than 4x and as this was impossible, I obviously had a virus. I was instructed to run my antivirus software before trying to install again.

The Longest Journey and Age of Empires II. And C&C: Red Alert, if I could get it to work with XP.

Worms World Party. It got me through my End of School exams. Been playing the same copy ever since it was released! From that game onwards, the series went down hill

I still am also hooked on The Incredible Machine and Leiro. Anyone Else?

I still play Starcraft, Disciples II, Space Quest series, and Seven Kingdoms. Those are great games no matter how old they get.

I play all the old games, but people should know that by now, considering how much I flame the new ones.

Monster Bash (as well as many apogee games), halloween harry, the quest for glory series and some old SSI titles like curse of the azure bonds and eye of the beholder. Gotta love having a fully functional 386 :D

Geez, you guys consider "old" to be something that's 3 years old?
Come on, nobody here played Duke Nukem 3D? Dune (omg talking in a video game!), Alice? Wolfenstein/DOOM, Heretic? Myst (admit it, you spent DAYS playing it), Simcity/2000?
With the exception of Starcraft, I'm not seeing much of what I would consider "old".
P.S. Half life and halo are not old!

Mostly, just stuff like the occasional bit of Half-Life, StarCraft, Warcraft III, Diablo, Age of Empires II, Command & Conquer, etc. All those games I grew up playing are every bit as fun to go back to these days, even if some have aged noticeably.
