Ditto! This game has the best music I've ever heard too since it is linked to the plot not just background crap. When you hear that erie music start up you know something bad is about to happen!

Ultima Underworld I & II, why did they have to have an end??

I don't miss Civ 2 as I still play it, but not as much as I play CivNet. (Both installed on my computer and I've played them in the beginning of this year)

Space fighters: X-wing (The original before Tie-fighter) and the two Freelancer games, goodies!

But apart from the Ultima Underworld games and Civ 1&2 there's really no old game I'd play again, (kind of a lie as I play old arcade games on the MAME emu...but thats something completely different!)

For the Last 6 months I haven't played any game except SEIV.
Will have to brush up on some other games as we're having a LAN weekend this autumn though;
Unreal tournament, Heroes of might and magic IV.

I know Ruatha, they were great, I have all the older Versions boxed away.

What was it - I thru IV was Commodore 64

Then V-VIII DOS or windows 3.1 a few were a little buggy as I recall.

Then Ultima IX Ascension for 95+

Ultima IV and Ultima IX was my favorite. However I never Finished V-VII
My son loves ultima IX Ascension.

I never have time to even try the On Line Version, besides once I am on, I will never get off, so I don�t dare

Paradise Isle I still play it (ALOT), great game.

Has anyone tried the Sierra series games of Caesar, Pharaoh, and the new one Emperor?

My wife and I play Emperor LAN when possible and it is fun. New upgrade has just been released and adds much more to multiplayer...

Right, Hunt for Red October was the C64 sub game

Red Storm Rising was in my opinion Tom Clancy best work. Is there a game Red Storm rising, this would be centered around a all out war with NATO versus USSR with Jack Ryon to the rescue
