StaceyPowers Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 For those who are old enough to remember the DOS era on PC, what were your favorite DOS games? A couple I remember fondly are Return to Zork and Heaven and Earth. @DylanC @killamch89 @kingpotato @The Blackangel @Alyxx @Aerielle del Rosario @Executor Akamia @skyfire kingpotato 1
skyfire Posted September 15, 2019 Posted September 15, 2019 A lot I can think of. Contra, Pooyan, House of Dead, X-men, Street Fighter. Some of those games were ported to DOS which were arcade only.

The Blackangel Posted September 15, 2019 Posted September 15, 2019 ZZT, MDK, Pac-Man, Frogger, Maze Craze, Space Invaders, and a couple other dot matrix games. I can't think of the titles at the moment. I've been out of bed for all of 5 minutes.

The Blackangel Posted September 15, 2019 Posted September 15, 2019 Am I missing something? It seems everyone is talking about NES and Sega games, not old DOS games.
skyfire Posted September 16, 2019 Posted September 16, 2019 Space invaders is definitely classic and I'd say it kind of reminds of those old slow days of internet and computers.
Executor Akamia Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 I can't think of a single game I played on DOS. I think it's a bit too old for me; the oldest games I ever played all ran on Windows 95.
skyfire Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 So what are some of those games which you played on Windows 95? I remember shadow warrior being one such game on Windows 98, which was DOS game though.
kingpotato Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 Doom, Contra, Command & Conquer, I believe almost all the ones I've played have been mentioned already, It was the good old days.

skyfire Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 House of Deads the DOS based version was rad. Also there was one rocket league type DOS game of which I forgot the name.
