How old are you? And for the oldies, What's your favorite DOS game?

38, best series were probably Wing Commander and Tex Murphy.

Actually learned a lot of my english on the old Sierra games. Used to play with an english/french dictionary in hand just so I could figure out how to get the game to understand what I meant. Still fire up those Lucasarts/Sierra classics from time to time via ScummVM.

I'm 16.
Yeah.
I remember playing Gex, and Age of Empires I and II. Memories <3

20, 21 in November. I recall one of my favourite games being some awful knock-off of Mario called 'Aldo's Adventures' [1987] Tell me this isn't a knock-off... minus the treasure There was also some RPG called Castle of the Winds [1989].

am 21, dont recall sk8 disks, but do recall Crazybytes disks, with some of the newest games on them etc.

22, and most Apogee games. God damn I loved and still do love some of those games. Cosmo. <3

I'm old enough to have an Atari 2600, so do the math. My favorite DOS game was probably X-Com but Starflight and Star Control II are right up there too. My favorite C*64 game was probably Wasteland although Alternate Reality: The Dungeon comes in a close second.

36 here, and I started gaming on an Apple II+. Favorite game on there was Conan - always got to the end screen, never was able to actually beat the board. There was another game I remember, but no idea what it was called where the disk had gotten corrupted and wouldn't load - so I'd put a different disk in the drive for a couple seconds or so, then quickly take it out and insert the game disk... only way I could get it to work was to use the first disk as a bootstrap to get things going (the synopsis of the game was you had to guide your rocket/missile from one side of the screen to targets on the other, while avoiding obstacles and other structures in the way. It was a side scroller, but I found it easier to tip the monitor on its side and play it vertically... still wish I knew what it was called).

For DOS, there's games like Wolfenstein, Doom, Fallout, Duke Nukem, the King's Quest series (all of 'em), Betrayal at Krondor, etc. Also text games like Zork, Planetfall, and Adventure. I always did enjoy Epic Megagames' "One Must Fall 2097" (still have the 3.5" disks for that, though it's now freeware).

I am 36, but I don't think I ever had a favorite DOS game. I can remember running DOOM on a TabWorks machine back in the day, and I loved MUDs and Talkers, but that is the most I remember.

I'm about 47, and my first games were on a teletype. I smell a Wumpus!

Then, some time later, they came out with microcomputers. That was different! We used to play "Adventure" (an early version of Hack) on the Commodore PET. There were a few games in the arcade, back then (Pong, Breakout, Space War), but the ball didn't really get rolling until the ATARI 2600 VCS came out and changed everything. Hack, Rogue, and Urogue continued to be around for many years, but the ATARI VCS ushered in the video-game industry as we know it, today. The VCS had two cartridges in particular that everyone played: Combat, and Adventure.

I can ramble on and on about computers and the video-game industry, seeing as how I lived through it, but I think that's enough for now. Favorite DOS game? Probably Ultima IV.

Im 23. I dont remember too DOS games I have played but Duke Nukem series was good. I blue screened my mom's work computer with it :P

Tyrian, Extreme Pinball and Jazz Jackrabbit. Out of those 3, I LOVE Tyrian (which is free at GOG.com)

16 and Elder scrolls Arena

i dont think its of DOS, but i loved Full Throttle when i was a child

I'm 30, and my favorite DOS game was Castle Adventure, followed by Lemmings.

When I got older, and games got color and stuff, I was a fan of Monkey Island and Indiana Jones games by LucasArts, and the early King's Quest games, all of which I ran from the DOS prompt. I can't say I like the remakes of any of those, or the newer ones, nearly as much as my brother and I liked the old ones.

27, and I can't really remember the names of the games. But by name I remember of Prince of Persia, Aladdin, and Out of This World. But one of my favourites are a boxing game, but unfortunately I can't remember the name of this game.

In '90s i didnt play on pc, i played on SEGA i PS 1. Mortal Combat on SEGA was so awesome i adored that game so much... i'm smiling right now memories :D
I started on PC in 2001, and my all-time favorite is MAFIA. I dare you not to like it :D
BTW, almost 25 now

I'm 19 and grew up with Windows 95 (that's not DOS is it?). Anyways my favorite games back then included some awesome racing game (idk what it was), Chip's Challenge and 3D Body Adventures.

Today I'd say my favorite DOS game is TES II: Daggerfall.

16 , And I think I didn't play DOS games that time ,the first game I played was sonic on my Ps2 :(

I'm 31. My favourite games were probably;
Transport Tycoon
Ripper (FMV game with Christopher Walken and Burgess Meredith)
C&C Red Alert
Quake
Doom (obviously)
and Descent. My god, I loved Descent.

Edit: I however didnt start gaming on PC. Used to use a commodore 64 (i believe, could have been a spectrum) at my cousins to play Dizzy. I owned a BBC Acorn Electron and played a Paddington Bear game on it when i was like 4 or 5.
But my first real gaming was on the Sega Master System and until last year, I owned over 150 SMS games, but had to sell them. I never really played the NES, but would play games like Ghostbusters 2 on my friends Atari ST once in a while - and Robocop, I think.

Edit 2: I just remembered MDK, KKND and Magic Carpet

Only 18, but my favorites DOS games were Duke Nukem 3D, Day of The Tentacle and Sam & Max Hit the Road

Im 11.....
I do know a lot of classics. Even though I wasn't around that time.
Im pretty sure delta force is on a dosbox. But that's pretty much my fav

24, Had the original Mac, first game I think was space invaders, then got an Snes and Super Mario, Super Metroid, Donkey Kong, then got a PC and got Doom, Unreal, etc...

Good old days, games seemed to last longer for me then....

42, yes, I'm old. I loved the Zork series, all the Lucasart adventures in 16 and 256bit versions (I still have all the floppies), X-wing and the great Falcon 3.0, one of the first games who needed MS-dos 5.0 and 1MB of RAM, I had to change my PC for that game.

18, almost 19. Favorite DOS game is Jetpack. My brother showed it to me years ago, loved the game ever since. Still play it even on my Windows 7 computer.
