    I've been playing a lot of Mortal Kombat 3 recently on the PC but if i was to choose a favourite old game it's got to be Streets of Rage II. Never gets old.

    For me it's Buzz Aldrin's race into space.. a real blast (off) from the past, but still has a huge amount of enjoyment and tension through it.

    Silent Hill or Final Fantasy 7 on PS1, great games.

    Many of the old tycoon games are still such great fun. They're not too complicated and the ones with 2D graphics work better than many newer games with 3D graphics.

    Rollercoaster Tycoon is a bit favourite in my household.

    Lords of Midnight.

    Loved playing this back in the 80s on my Commodore 64, played it again via an emulator around 10 years ago. Tempted to have another bash soon.

    Tombraider!

    When I first played TR1 I was hooked, I actually went out and bought TR2 - thats the ONLY game I have ever bought for the PC (until recently).

    Now I have steam and am buying games cheaply.

    I am stuck battling a tyrannosaurus rex on Tomb Raider Anniversary at the moment and and rather peeved that I cannot just bypass the level.

    The youtube vids have not worked for me :(

    Back to running & gunning. :)

    Shining force; bought for the Megadrive as I liked the picture on the box and {although now on the PC through Steam} have played {and still do play} them :0).

    Do you know that there's an online multiplayer version with new maps and everything - MidnightMU.com, there's also an active forum to go with the game :)
