Marutia Ortia -> Replaying old games (5/7/2014 8:28:44 PM)

Do you like to replay games, which you`ve had played before? Which ones do you like to replay over and over again?




Aurelian -> RE: Replaying old games (5/7/2014 9:31:32 PM)

Total Annihilation.




Twotribes -> RE: Replaying old games (5/7/2014 9:49:06 PM)

Still playing Advanced tactics ) Occasionally I play older games. just depends.




Lützow -> RE: Replaying old games (5/7/2014 9:51:13 PM)

The old Infinity Engine titles: Baldurs Gate, Planescape Torment and Icewind Dale.




aaatoysandmore -> RE: Replaying old games (5/7/2014 11:12:59 PM)

I find myself playing "The Guild or The Guild 1400" over n over. I can't get enough of that Sims type feeling an action in Medieval times. Much better than Sims Medieval.

Of course the wargame I play over n over would have to be Combat Mission and Panzer Osfront or Norbsoft's Scourge of war series which probably leads the pack and Steel Panthers.




zakblood -> RE: Replaying old games (5/8/2014 4:42:01 AM)

far too many to post here in this thread, all old dos games, and still play most of them tbh with Arnhem being the one that sticks in the mind and any of the v 4 victory ones




Gilmer -> RE: Replaying old games (5/8/2014 11:28:14 AM)

Mostly just the wargames. I play War in Russia still and Pacwar.




Hertston -> RE: Replaying old games (5/8/2014 11:34:57 AM)

All three STALKER games, my favourite FPS by a mile. It was fun revisiting System Shock 2 when GOG released it, too.




wings7 -> RE: Replaying old games (5/8/2014 7:11:12 PM)

The Campaign Series (TalonSoft) has always been a favorite. [:)]

Absolutely (both) …….. just not a big fan of the pitcher and fielders rating system in APBA ,prefer SOMs pitcher lefty/righty breakdowns along with its fielder range and error probability being calculated separately along with all its depth pertaining to player individual ratings . Even though APBA quality blows SOM away (game components and cards) and probably calculates a more historical team outcome at the end of the day I enjoy Som’s detail in (super advance)

I play a lot of draft leagues and APBA gears their rating system toward historical “team” results as Som’s is geared to give you the cold hard facts of every individual player making it more adaptable towards draft leagues




Deon -> RE: Replaying old games (5/26/2014 7:51:49 AM)

I still find myself playing the old Colonization. The Civ4-based one is just different, so I tend to return to the old one over and over :).

Also, speaking of Old, Shadowrun from console. It was a fun RPG. I don't really "replay" it, but I keep coming back to it once per year or two.

why?

i do, i use windows 8.1 pro 64bit, and downloaded a free program called dosbox launcher and all my old dos games work fine, same as any for win 3.1,98SE plus any version as well tbh, ME,NT 4.0, vista and xp & win 7 any version using the compatibility tools included in windows 8.1.

tbh not had a single game as of yet that couldn't be run so far




m10bob -> RE: Replaying old games (5/27/2014 11:46:59 AM)

I was playing Steel Panthers clear back when my dad was still alive..I showed him the game..He felt it was a decent portrayal of the war..Since then...I still play SPWAW..Ever grateful for all who have worked to keep it fresh...........

Now I really long to play The Guild or The guild: 1400.

I play that and Age of Empires frequently too. No reason to stop playing the classics.

Had every baseball & football season from 1970-1985. Probably should have hung on to them but got tired of moving them from state to state. Also had the college football game.

No computer game has been as good although MicroLeague and Earl Weaver Baseball is why I stopped getting the Strat teams each year.


To answer the OP's question:

Jagged Alliance 2
Baldur's Gate 2
WitP:AE




t001001001 -> RE: Replaying old games (5/30/2014 1:48:11 AM)

First game was Racing Destruction Set. Dialed into bbs using a 600 baud modem to post my opinions [8D] When I was 12 I knew everything.




Jafele -> RE: Replaying old games (6/1/2014 12:58:33 PM)

I never get tired of playing Left 4 dead 2 (FPS); Combat Mission; Advanced Tactics; John Tiller Campaign Series and Flashpoint campaigns: Red Storm. [&o][&o][&o][&o][&o][&o][&o][&o]

There are many others I like, however these are the ones I spend more time playing, perhaps because of their replayability[:D]




operating -> RE: Replaying old games (6/5/2014 4:53:40 PM)

Take Command Second Manassas was one of my favorites from Mad Minute Games




E -> RE: Replaying old games (6/5/2014 10:39:10 PM)

I did a long long time ago. Even had the cards that came in those small envelopes. Collected for years back in the 70's. Tried new ones like Big League Manager and Negamco. Always came back to APBA though. Then I think it was 95' I went digital for a couple of years and then got hooked on Front Page Sports Baseball in 98' (wish they would bring that back) mostly been playing OOTPBB up until the 2013 year then got tired of just paying the guy $39.95 a year for a roster list and not much improvements to the game. He's since changed his style once again by going 3D but not exactly what I want. A floating ball on the screen is not my idea of 3D baseball. I wanna see players and I wanna see action again like Front Page Sports Baseball.

Front Page Sports Baseball 98' was the best of them all. Gave you good statistical outcomes and good graphics to boot. My favorite fan line was : You ain't Nothin" you shouda heard the guy when he said it too funny.
