This is what my first computer looked like:


IBM PS1... I could play Mario Teaches Typing, Loader Larry, X-COM: UFO Defense, Doom, Hoyle (card games), and Starwars X-Wing simulator, which came on 6 floppy disks!

mine was a little better than that, but very close. it's in a thread somewhere.

I upgraded to an IBM PS2 in high school... It had Windows 3.1!

For the life of me I cannot find a picture the first computer we owned. It was an HP Pavilion, probably around 1998 though the model itself may have been a year or two older.

I beat it a couple years ago. One of the best action / puzzle games made imo. I plan to rebeat it with the updated graphics on android. Looks like the guy who ported the game on android did a huge overhaul, and updated it with HQ graphics and sounds that are true to the original. As seen in the link below the video.

I think another game to note on 3.1 / dos that i played was the original Jurassic Park.



these were the only two games that didn't look like sticks that we had lol.

since i brought up the sticks games lol. this was the other game we had, which is like a dk knock off, but with more items and stuff. i had lots of fun playing it. never beat it like the other 2 i posted.

got a download for those retro games?

[DaJ4ck3L]

hmmmm, for pc you would have to use dosbox.

http://www.dosbox.com/download.php?main=1

download and install that. then unzip these files below, and just drag the .exe file into the doxbox shortcut.

my personal favs were Supaplex ofc and jp (Jurassic Park - great action adventure game), but I played the hell out of all of them. Tyrian probably one of the best plane shooters made for dos. I never had the full game, but the shareware version. you can find more dos games on the web. i have more but too lazy to upload them, so i just uploaded the ones i like.



tyrian video.
