    best/good COMPUTER games

    I went looking for some old games i used to play back when i was using windows 95 and 98.... and just thought... what were some awesome games for PC? im not talkin over 20 yr old games... but for me... the best games were...

    7th guest,
    Roger wilco
    Space Quest (most of them)
    King's Quest (also good)
    I bought MYST and it was ok.... but really not THAT fun.
    Need for speed was okay too.... but im more into those advernture games...
    (GTA was nice)!

    so can u guys name some games that were good that i may have not tried in the past 10 years or so?

    I wholeheartedly agree with the following:
    Oregon Trail
    Carmageddon I & II
    King's Quest
    Myst series

    I'll add:
    The Worms Series
    Commandos
    You Don't Know Jack was a great party game
    Scorch (might be older than 10 years)

    Ohh, some good ones eh?

    Well, how could you forget Total Annihilation and it's expansion The Core Contingency? Those were some great games.

    Other than that, the civilization games, I liked 3 and rise to power.

    MechCommander
    Worms

    Those two were good aswell.

    Police Quest 5 was the last I played and best of the series. It had an extremely high production value for its time. Lots of sets, some authentic gritty crime scenes, good voice acting and ambiance.
