Awesome PC Games from the 90's [and DOSBox appreciation] Thread

[Great Rumbler]

I know how to work DOS, but that doesn't make it faster than this:



All my games are in one place with all the details laid out for me to peruse at my leisure. No mounting, no trying to figure out which file boots the game, and I know exactly what each and every game is. I can even save my CPU presets.

Also, I played two more games extensively today: One Must Fall 2097 and Flashback. Both of them are still pretty awesome. Flashback, of course, is an action platformer with lots of science fiction added in. The CD version has some awesome CG clips peppered around and they definitely add a little spice to the experience.

OMF is actually a fairly deep game, I'd forgotten most of what the game is like until today. You've got a pretty good range of robots and pilots, some interesting levels each with their own environmental hazards, and the tournament mode where you gain money to update your robot and purchase new and better ones is a pretty cool addition. It lacks the combo depth of a game like Street Fighter 2, but it makes up for that in other ways.
