I was talking about this at work a few months ago and If I had a time machine, I would absolutely go back to the early 90s NO QUESTIONS ASKED. As a general rule, I don't think things have ever been better before or since then.
@@canman87 You have a point with that, but....playing as a kid on an NES in the 80 ist still a bit more comfy. But living my life growing up with all these stuff...give me my NES/S-NES AND! my C-64/Intel 368/Atari ST and i would die of joy.
@@MrHFAlucard I was born in '87, so I was a little too late to be able to relate to growing up in the 80s, lol. But I totally hear ya. I started on a Commodore 64 as well, so I'd take one of those, a NES, a SNES, and I'd be perfectly content!
these mb games still worth 50x more valueable than today’s graphics focused games. The games in 80,90 were fun to play, had great story and gameplay elements, element of surprise, great soundtracks, dialogues
I remember the animations of Battle Chess being funny, but I'd forgotten how funny. Plus, playing it as a kid, I hadn't yet seen Monty Python Holy Grail, so I didn't know that the knights fighting was referencing that.
My recommendations: Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space, Heroes of Might and Magic, Master of Orion, Sword of the Samurai, Red Baron, Wing Commander series, X-wing, Tie Fighter, Diablo, Knights of the Sky, Jagged Alliance, X-COM, Crusader No Remorse, Crusader No Regret, Castles 2 Siege and Conquest. I wasn't allowed to get a gaming console after the NES in the 90s due to my parents thinking it would distract from school. Little did they know the games available for the computer!
And because of these games many kids learned how to configure computers so they became self taught tech support agents for the company that hired them. Learning how to customize autoexec. bat and config. sys was a core skill of a gamer.
I love Ultima Underworld! After so many years I'm still waiting to forget all secrets, just to play it again for the first time a second time in my life 😍
Hmm... What about Dangerous Dave 2, Flashback, Prince of Persia 1&2, X-com, Under the killing Moon, Mortal Kombat 1-3, Descent, F-19 Stealth Fighter, System Shock, The Dig, Lost Vikings, Lands of Lore, King's Bounty, Jagged Alliance, Master of Orion?
I would mine every piece of gold and cut down every tree and wait to wipe out the enemy to get the highest score. Some funny rankings they came up with.
DoomII was unbelievable when it came out - still love it to this day. The era when WatcomC was the main staple of developers was the coolest... so much crafty engineering. Later on it all became more and more streamlined and boring.
@@spearPYN Absolutely - the amount of technical expertise which is featured in the Quake source code is second to none. So many clever algorithms(+OS based init routines) and most importantly the Pentium specific code sections which actually delivered real world performance gains. Overall it was a gargantuan achievement by Carmack, Abrash and the id crew. I chose DoomII because I prefer it as an overall experience. Quake only wins for me in LAN based Deathmatch... especially "The Abandoned Base".
Streamlined and boring? I should say not so, i would say the problem has become increasingly that the amount of knowledge required to spin up a modern game codebase from ground up has become impossible to grasp for any single person or a small group of people. As something i find particularly impressive i point to GPU driven rendering and GPU driven geometry culling first made by Sebastian Aaltonen in Assassins Creed Unity. This is almost mind bending stuff. And there's more of that thing going on every day. Perhaps we did have an era of boring video cards dominating and streamlining the industry in the interim, before shaders came along. To make things worse, they were already not thoroughly supporting palletised textures.
@@doom5895 Id say since Half Life 2 (not counting indie, which however also suffers from sameness due to engines...)

DOS games rule. I've played a number of these over the years, mostly around the time they were new, and they sill stand up today. Hell, I've been playing Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold a bit over the past week or so; I still love that game so much!
Played most for countless hours and believe me nostalgia is better left in the past to keep the good memories intact, as we'd be disappointed by most of them except for Day of the tentacle!
SSI's general series. Panzer General, Allied General, Civil War General, Fantasy General, Space General ... There was a Warhammer 40k game they put out that used that same format, too. Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat was good too.
A few more recommendations… X-Wing and Tie Fighter Wing Commander 1-4 Descent 1 and 2 Lands of Lore Might and Magic 3, 4, and 5 Ultima VII: Part 1 and 2 Heretic Blood
Settlers 2 was originally on ms-dos however is now available on windows, can be bought on Good old games and has a 10 year anniversary edition. -Cheers
Interesting choices! Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is severely underrated. Massively influential to the entire adventure genre yet often overlooked in favor of Fate of Atlantis (which is superior but Last Crusade is still a great game worth checking out). Also Eye of the Beholder! One of the greatest D&D games in my opinion. The Sega CD version is worth checking out too because of its weird techno soundtrack that shouldn't fit yet somehow does.
Would definitely add Little big adventures /Relentless 1 (name depending on region). Goblins, Sierra adventure games, Hi-octane also runs nicely on dosbox.
I still have the first game on floppy disks, though they sold it under the name Serf City.I remember Magic Carpet, Civilization,Colonization,Retail,Uprising 2 , Redneck rampage, 7 kingdoms etc.
The mainstream games were FPS. Simulation and scifi games are often disregarded by UA-camrs. So it is more likely to find nostalgia videos about Mario and Doom than about Battlezone or Freespace 2 or Independence War Deluxe Edition.
I remember playing blockout as a kid and everytime our computer crashes, I had to remove the RAM which are tiny IC's and a bunch of them and reinsert each one back hoping that the computer will boot again.
I still play Transport Tycoon (Deluxe), Wing Commander 3-4, many Sierra, Virgin, Lucas Arts and Psygnosis quests. C&C, Dune 2000, X-Com, Ecstatica 1-2. Lots of 1992-1998 MS-DOS games are timeless pieces of Art.
What's amazing is I remember the graphics seemed so advanced at the time. Any of the Microprose strategy games or SSI RPGs, this is my era of video games. Also MOO2, RotT, UT, Wing Commander; so many great games.
People have already commented with more games, I want only to add: Ultima Underworld II (a game I was very fond of), and Elite: Frontier (an entire universe on a 720 floppy disk).
Es fehlen die drei Spiele, die ich viel mit meinen Brüdern gespielt habe: - Der Patrizier - Bundesliga Manager Professional - Bandit kings of ancient China Und natürlich der erste Teil von Monkey Island.
Some more i can think of: Rogue (Hack, Nethack) X-Com Indianapolis 500 Master of Magic Kings quest series Space quest series Quest for Glory series Grand Monster Slam
Choice is a mixed bag. The second part of the series were usually better: Settler 2, Fate of Atlantis, Command and Conquer (or was the latter in the 90s). And no Sierra adventure games in the list!??
Stil playing Master of Orion, released 1993. It was fun as kid and is stil today. After u finished playing, it literally gives you the option "Quit to do Dos" 😊
A great game but far from being the first FPS! With Terminator Rampage there was even already a Terminator themed FPS game earlier which wasn´t the first one either.
Thee were FPS games before Terminator Future Shock (Wolfenstein, Doom, Dark Forces, System Shock, Ultima Underworld), but TFS was first game which had real 3D with full mouse look and aim .... Quake 1 and Unreal 1 with same technology came after. If I am wrong and there were another read 3D FPS before TFS please correct me :-). I think it was solid game with some flaws and bugs but the control and look and feel was revolutionary. If you climbed to some high structure you could get vertigo :-)
THere is an old DOS game called 4d boxing. Man I think I put more hours into that game in the 90s than I have any game since including GTA4/5 and Skyrim.
Surprised Epic Pinball didn't make the list. Its hard to find good pinball games, they usually get too complex, But Epic Pinball is still up there with Space Cadet and Pokemon Pinball imo
i prefer 3d games that don't try to look too realistic. If they just rebooted the old ones like duke nukem, hexen etc with more updated gfx, they would be awesome.
16:44 now thats one i didnt know about! I had it for the genesis.. the dos versions music is just that much more better! Did they make lion king for dos too?
Is anyone familiar with the PC game USA quiz (maybe was titled United States quiz) from the 1990s? I originally played it on an IBM compatible computer. It played the first few notes of The National Anthem upon starting up. The game provides multiple choice questions about state capitals and state birds and such. You also need to answer individual questions before the timer ran out. I really want to find an emulator online, but I've come up empty so far. Any info about this game would be much appreciated! I no longer own an IBM compatible but would love to be able to play this game again.
All DOS games are worthy of playing now and forever. The 80s and 90s was the peak of human civilization!
They were just plain fun for fun.
No such crap as paying an additional amount to get some trivial advantage.

Slipstream 5000, Simon the Sorcerer, Terminal Velocity, Conflict:Freespace, Euro 92, Supaplex, Crammond's F1 Grand Prix :P
Prince of Persia and Lost Vikings were awsome!
Flashback is available for PS3.
I play "Block Out" from 1989 since then.
Because of the highscores including the date of the scores new records keep being highly motivating.
Love it!
I´m a huge blockout fan as well. Is there a proper remake of this game?
@@svendaennart There are some Windows-clones, I guess. But I wouldn't change it because of the old scores to beat in the original. ;)

Unbelievable how Warcraft 2 is looking so much ahead of its time.
Its still fun to pickup and play the 1st Warcraft game not to much.
I still play it.

When gameplay delivered joy. Today companies compete to deliver short term improved graphics, forget about gameplay.
As it should... I just hear the Settlers 1 music became feeling myself in my childhood's best days.
That Sim City music.

Dune II looks and sounds like the same guys that did command and conquer.

Westwood studios was great until EA bought them and ruined the company

Great games. Thank you for reminding me.
Settlers wasnt done by Ubisoft. They just purchased the studio and the license 10 years after release.
Resolution of 320 x 200 Pixel, 256 colors (VGA) and 16 Bit-Sound (I believe at 22,05 kHz or later 44,1 kHz). But we had FUN with the great gameplay...
cause it ruled babe
Now, you need $1,000’s worth of hardware to run a game that you can beat by holding one key.
Hexen haven’t played that for along long time, spent so much time on that game
