Currently looking for good pc games from about 1990-2005

Hi, I'm looking for good pc games, mostly action or adventure which are from about 1990-2005 bcoz i cant be screwed to get a good graphics card.

 

Re: Currently looking for good pc games from about 1900-2005

...I'll give you a few suggestions-sorry if they aren't in the age range...


v8 super cars 3 9racing-but it's fun)

devil may cry 4

halo

Halo2

quake 4

quake-original (first one)

doom-any and all



The doom/quake card requirements should be fine...the other games...hrm...


(next time I suggest graphic specs and not age-you'd be surprised in what power games need in the year 2000-in which a few of us know that they may need a fair bit of power-even if you aren't in the computer know-it's handy to know if one's laptop can handle devil may cry 4 )

You cant run DMC4 if you look for 2005-
You should try Jazz Jack Rabbit 2. Its an awesome platformer.

And you should try

if it says OK everything else but Graphics, you can play it.

Now that you mention it... yeah, I don't see games before 1990. I was bornn in 1996 so I only see games made in 1992 to present.

Anyway,
suggested games...Devil May Cry 4?

I was starting to wonder if anyone would catch that as I scrolled down.

As for older games that I've played (and can remember)

Portal
Monkey Island Series
Sam and Max: Hit the Road
Full Throttle
The Dig
7th Guest
11th Hour
F.E.A.R

Oh yeah, lol i meant 1990. I'll change that. Thanks to the guys above for mentioning those games

 

Hey, I love FPS games, so can you suggest any good fps apart from COD1 coz I already have it.

Thnx... btw, loonylion may consider that to be warez.

 

warez is stuff you need to pay for online-but you bypass it.


Kinda like buying an r4 and downloading roms thus bypassing the cart cost

 

Yeah, but if there's something missing then it can recommend something which you can download in order to play the game.

 

Monkey Island and F-22 Raptor. (realy old games

Besides that I belive that any Snes/GBA/N64 emulator should work fine on any computer.

 

GBA is touchy on older systems as well. I actually got Visual Boy Advance to load up on a Windows 98 system once, but good god it was slow.

 

yeah- some games don't work on project 64 like kirby . But other good games do like Zelda

lol, guess that ps3 emulators are definitely not what you want. a friend has a really good computer with awesome graphics and he had a ps3 emulator. the computer was really new so not much space was taken up, but it was soooo laggy!

 

What about the PS1 emulation scene, it's awesome. If your looking at a good game on the PC from 1990 - 2005, Unreal Tournament 2004 is awesome along with Warsow. Warsow is free by the way and has low requirements.

 

what's warsow? sounds interesting.

 

You Should Try Psychonauts. Its a great adventure/platformer

 

cool- checking that out now
