    I can't remember whether Jagged Alliance 2 or Fallout came out first...probably Fallout...but those are the two oldies I play most often. X-Com and Age of Wonders every so often, too.

    NES classics like Super Mario and the like; age being between 1983 and 1990. Have to admit that majority of them rely too much on trial-and-error method (with a load of 'repeat').

    Doom is probably the oldest I've played. That's mid 90's. Besides that I would have to say Starcraft, I swear I play that game almost every day since I got it. It never gets old.

    Actually I have been playing some Spectrum games online and some are very fun and some are just bizzare (brings me back to the 1980's).

    PM me if you want the link!
