Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid.
Sid Meier's Colonisation, my 10 year old laptop that I replaced last year only had enough power to play that game and I put so many hours into it when I didn't have access to my main pc. It's just a shame that my new laptop doesn't upscale dosbox the same way my old one did but I think that's just because of the differences between MacOS and Windows.
(Edit: wrote the wrong game series somehow)
So many amazing games to choose from such as all the D&D based ones, Morrowind, the SimCity ones and the Championship Manager games, but my absolute favorite was Fallout 2 for sure!
Syndicate and Wing Commander Privateer
Shattered Galaxy, it marketed itself as an mmorpgrts. The depth of gameplay was fantastic. While the graphics look a little dated, I would still play it if there was any server population left.
MGS 1 for obvious reasons.
Blitz and NBA street 1&2 were definitely some faves.
Jet Moto series.
Jet grind radio had so many hours sunk into it.
Resident evil 1-2 was absolutely terrified of these games but couldnโt stop playing and quickly became a favorite of me and my dad.
Subspace - Meet people from all over the world, and then kill them.
One of the first online multiplayer games. It has a very long skill curve, and a ton of variety in game types.
It's still alive in Steam as Continuum!
The 90s were peak gaming for me - a lot a creative things were going on, new genres being explored. And we were spoilt for choice with all the blatant piracy.
But if I had to choose one game that really blew me away, that would be Thief.
Seven kingdoms
I loved the game Tomba! 2 The Evil Swine Return, it was creative, intricate, and very far ahead of its time, I would love to see the series get a reboot or a remaster
Star fox 64
- Half-life
- the Doom games
- the Quake games
- Shogo
- POD
- Outlaws
- Soldier of Fortune (it was released in 2000 tho but it's almost the 90's lol)
There are so many... Here are some that I probably spent the most time with:
- Master of Orion
- XCom (the original)
- unreal tournament
- Elder Scrolls Daggerfall
- Falcon 3.0
- Mechwarrior 2
The Secret of Monkey Island Super Metroid Yoshi's Island
