After all these years, Flatout series (made by Bugbear) just got new updates: workshop support, steam cards etc. some devs are just different and rare in today’s gaming world.

jj4211,

The biggest drawback that may offset the enjoyment of a lot of the 90s JRPG are the random encounters, and the “wait for bars to fill” systems that makes nothing happen for long periods of time by either side.

Star control 2

jj4211,

You can get that free as Ur Quan Masters that has been ported to modern operating systems, with optional new renditions of the music that are pretty good.

Age of Empires II

Karyoplasma,

The remaster is one of the few remasters that are not just a rip-off.

The C&C remasters also did an excellent job

Many of the old Sierra and Dynamix adventure games are great. Kings Quest IV through VII are probably the ones that hold up best. The adventures of Willy Beamish, Heart of China, Police Quest and Space Quest.

Need for Speed Underground 2 was a great game. Not sure how much nostalgia ia in there but it just felt good for a racer.

Bloons TD holds a special place in my heart and so does Runescape.

Don_Dickle,

I know I am old and you don’t have to call me it but F Zero was my first forway into racing.

Karyoplasma,

I loved F-Zero on the SNES and an old game called PoD: Planet of Death on the family PC.

Akrenion,

I sure hope you get your sequel eventually. I only ever played the super smash stage.

Red Faction (PS1, PC) - Just one of my favorite series. One of the early FPS’s with destructible environments. Continued with a series, RF 2, RF: Guerrilla, and RF: Armageddon. RF 1 and RF: Guerrilla are the best imo.

Indigo Prophecy, a.k.a. Fahrenheit (Xbox, PC) - “Interactive Drama” with a wild story. From the same studio and precursor for Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls, and Detroit: Become Human.

These ate just a couple off the top of my head that I haven’t already seen posted here.

Populous The Beginning

ObsidianZed,

Many many many hours in computers class in grade school was lost to this game. Best game of what I only found out later to be a series.

Maybe I overlooked it, but I didn’t see any mention of Jade Empire yet. This is one of the master pieces from Biowares golden age. The setting and story are wonderful and they aced the characters and how you interact with them.

And Diablo II is also still a master piece of action RPG. The flow in playing it is masterfully done.

Pretty sure you drag it to pico 8 to open it. The game is in the image. Then once it is loaded you can save how you’d like.

Quake 3.

Pure, unbridled, FPS action.

I am not sure if tfc (team fortress classic) still has servers running in any capacity, but it was one of the forefathers of role based, team shooters. It’s influence and by proxy TF2’s is still huge in competitive gaming.

Those games defined my late teens and early 20’s.
