What old school games are you still playing?

Lately I've been playing MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries. A REALLY fun game that's heavy on Joystick use if you're using a joystick. I couldn't get MechWarrior 3 to work even on my XP partition. Luckily I have MechWarrior 4 working, lol. I've been having a blast playing this game.

I spent a nostalgic hour or two last night playing the original C64 version of Battleships.

On this i7 quad-core??!!........:-)

Loved that game 20+ years ago, hadn't played it for years, but found a browser-playable version online.

Along with a couple of hundred other old C64 games. I'm happy with that!



**Confession: I do still have the C64, and yes, it still runs!**
