[2012-05-05 17:07:53] danekjovax - Nice video. It ...Nice video. It sure brought me back to my teen years when I was growing up with my VIC20 and Commodore 64, and playing with my friends' ATARI 800, IBM PC XT, Apple IIe, and TRS80 ("Trash 80") I can tell you were more of an action arcade player, as most of the really good adventure RPGs are strangely absent here. I would like to know if you knew about these: Archon, Ultima I through IV, M.U.L.E., Sentinel Worlds I: Future Magic, Elite, Starflight and Alternate Reality: The City?

[2012-04-19 14:51:42] kookoon - WOW you made me ...WOW you made me remember paratrooper! Almost forgot about that, really nice game. I had CGA card so there are many games I don't know about. Lode runner was my favorite.
[2012-04-18 23:49:25] AmstradExin - How about Alley ...How about Alley Cat? The PC version is really great to control. :D
[2012-04-18 05:10:32] Buldinn - WHAT? Sopwith Camel ...WHAT? Sopwith Camel deserved to be on this list! It's much better than Paratrooper!
[2012-04-18 05:01:19] Buldinn - Mean Streets " ...Mean Streets "Flight Simulator" is just the Wing Commander engine. It's the actual cockpit and everything.
[2012-04-17 02:53:01] DOSBoxMom - The ballroom ...The ballroom dancing sequence in Pirates was very difficult! Oregon Trail was fun (my favorite version was OT2, though). We had Battle Chess (might have been the C64 version, though). Pool of Radiance was my absolute favorite from the 80s, though. Played it on the C64 first, but then played it all over again on the PC in the mid-1990s (from a CD-ROM compilation), and still play it & the other "Gold Box" games via DOSBox. (Tandy sound is probably the best option for the DOS version of POR.)

[2012-04-07 23:03:09] txtumbler - Anyone remember an ...Anyone remember an IBM game from around 1983-4 that was a detective game. It was largely text, but it would show a 2D facade of houses at various addresses and you would collect clues. I've been searching online but no luck so far.
