The first "good" old PC games you remember playing.

[Lopsided Weener]

Command & Conquer: Tiberium Dawn, Homeworld 1... ah those were the days.

 

[meece]

For PC I think it'd have to be Red Alert 2. I still compare all RTS campaigns to that bar....and they invariable fall short. Exceping Homeworld.

 

[commodore96]

Star Wars Tie Fighter, it still is the best game ever

 

[TheKruzdawg]

Age of Empires 1 and "helping" my dad play Myst.

Also, Duke Nukem III when it was on DOS. God I played the shit out of that game.

 

[DaphneRose]

Probably Myst. But I was too young to get very far in the puzzles myself.

 

[KissofKetchup]

TIE FIGHTER!!!!

Although I was like 7 and I sucked at it

 

[hermes]

Pitfall on a friend's PC (although there it was called Tarzan).
On my own PC, the first game I played was FX Fighter...

 

[binvjoh]

Decent.

It was really cool, used to play it with my dad.

 

[TheAceTheOne]

For me it was "the incredible machine". A kind of puzzle game where you could build hilarious contraptions and the like or solve puzzles. I put sooo many hours of my life into it, I really should try to find it or some other game like it again.

That was incredible, I remember that.

I second both the feeling that it was incredible, and that it was my first good game.

 

[Fetzenfisch]

Doom , Dune , Dune 2, Civilisation, Colonization, X-Wing, Tie-Fighter, Wing Commander Privateer, Might and Magic
edit: yeah Red Baron ! how could i forget that one

 

[wammnebu]

The Duke Nukem 2, Dark Forces 2, and Jazz Jackrabbit

i used to play them on my uncles old pc when we would go over

 

[Optimus Hagrid]

Myst.

Yup.

Grew up with a Mac, played Myst, Marathon and Mr Potato Head.

 

[Declaro]

Myst and Riven. I literally played them on my dad's knee. (Gaming runs in the family.)

 

[Zinaxos]

Zork.

 

[pluizig]

The Secret Of Monkey Island. Good times

 

[Paularius]

Exile: Escape from the Pit
Flashback: Quest for Identity.

Fuck. I feel old.

Ninja'd on the Exile games! Still prefer Exile to the remakes they released even if the made 6 games in the series.

 

[Strixvaliano]

Full Throttle
Duke Nukem 3D
Yoda Stories
Dark Forces
Wolfenstein 3D

Those were all the games I remember that got me into pc gaming. Always played them at a friends though.
