my favorite oldie?
hmmm
Red Alert (never played the original C&C... only the few fan-made remade C&C missions for C&C generals)

I also liked the short part I played of planescape torment (I'm trying to play it again but it seems I lost CD 3)

another great oldie (IMO) is Broken Sword

Some worthwile games that I know are abandonware,

- Master of Magic
- Master of Orion
- Mechwarrior 2


lots of others no doubt but these are the ones I can think of at short notice. I plan on doing a review for Master of Magic once I am done with the civ2 review.

hmmm
Grim Fandango also springs to mind
not THAT old (compared to red alert)
shame that it never got as widely known as Monkey Island
In my opinion Grim fandango was an excellent mix between humor and a story... well it had a better story than Monkey island!
I mean think about it, stealing soules, communist demon-bee dockmasters!

MOO( ) is a great game too bad it is not available for download on this site

Here my votes:

1. Puzzle: Tetris
Being nearly as old as the computer itself, Tetris is a forever legend that still lives to this day. I still play around 10 mins of this game nearly every day, just to warm up to other things! Tetris is programmed in EVERY platform I have come across, thanks to its simplicity, and is enormous popular, thanks to its elegance. All I have said is perhaps unecessary, because if you do not know Tetris, you are probably not a gamer. To an extent, the world economy in 80's and 90' still see Tetris as culprit for global decrease in productions, as people in most office is more interested in playing it than their work...

2. FPS: Doom
A pioneer in 3D FPS, Doom is holding a lot of people at my office staying up all night and fight for their, uh,... freedom. Doom is true channels for our natural aggressiveness, and it's 3D reality is quite amazing, with extremely fast speed at the time it was released.

3. Strategy : Xcom 1 UFO Enemy Unknown
This game is the best game in 1994, and I am sure this game is also top 10 of the best game ever. The game is a mix of strategic thinking and turn-based squad battle, and it's unpredictable enough to keep you interested. The sound will generate terror if you play the game at night, and the feelings you have when facing aliens with not enough TU's is quite unforgettable! Now a lot of utilities is made that make the game more challenging and exciting, so the replayability is limitless.
There are a lot of sequels after this game, but no games lives up to the predecessor, and it's proving again that the simplest is the best.

Starcraft isn't downloadable yet

top games I've played
Starcraft/Brood War
Civilization 2
Master of Orion 2: Battle at Antares
Warlords 3: Reign of Heros
Fallout 1 & 2

Yes, Mad TV... this game caused many frustrations for me. First version I ever obtained (around 8 years ago) had a virus and wiped my HDD clean. Second version I obtained kept freezing my computer. Third version I obtained worked, but I couldn't figure it out. Recently I started playing it again, just to check if I was maybe too young and didn't get it, but still no luck :?

I hate it :evil: But if you like it, hey, add it, and be sure to include the manual :P

Doom 2 (I was rather good in it as a kid(In MPof course) )
Fate of Atlantis
Monkey Island
