Yeah, I've gone a bit mad with the 'classics' threads, but I wanted one for the PC.
So, any old gems you want to share with us?

£20, which is a whopping £10 off retail price, and an absolute steal for a new game in excellent condition.
If I don't sell it privately in the next couple of days, it's going on eBay.

Indeed they have:

Damn, it's rather crap. Just selecting what to do instead of the full freedom you had in the XCOM games is just to much of a no no for me.
Now, I have a urge to play the UFO (XCOM games) again; where can I get them? I remember buying a collection from SR a while back, but foolishly sold it again. Anyone?

Waa, I've just seen it auctioned on eBay for £46, I remember buying ot for £20 and selling it for £10!!!
Well, all classics sell well.
An early 80s game in pristine condition could well get you £100.

I know these are only a few years old, but I love the two Baldur's Gate games (Baldurs Gate 1998 and Shadows of Amn 2000/1 Throne of Bhaal exp)
... both complete classics, but as RPGs no-one ever really remembers them... :(

I think some of them may have been relaunched in a budget range recently; as ever, check your local games shop. Damn good games though; I had Interceptor, which I still occasionally play.

Die by the Sword!
did anyone play this?
you played a knight, and you had to kill huge monsters, other knights, and orcs and stuff. you could chop their arms and legs off, and when you got smacked with an axe, your character shouted 'BLOODY HELL!'.
high-larious

The best game involving knights was 'Battle Chess'. It was chess with a twist- the moves would knock each other out, shoot each other, explode and fall donw holes when they were taken. Pretty damn good for 1988. :D
