DOS Games

Some of you younger pukes may not have grown up playing DOS games (or even know what DOS is), but I have been playing quite a few DOS games this week. And to my surprise...

MORTAL KOMBAT FOR DOS IS FUCKING AWESOME!!!

I totally overlooked this game on the PC as a kid because I had it for both my Sega and SNES, but WOW! The graphics and sound are so much better than the console ports. I literally played it for 4 hours last night, beating the game with multiple characters, increasing the level of difficulty each time.

So this morning, I installed Super Street Fighter II Turbo. Another AWESOME game that I missed on the PC because I was too busy playing the crappy console versions. I played it so much and mashed so many buttons that I broke my Gravis Game Pad. I have to figure out how to get my Sidewinder working in DOS now...

DOS games still exist? Ahh the good ole days when you had to boot into DOS to get a game working. Ok actually dont miss those days because desktop icons are soooooo much easier.

What is this DOS you speak of? Is that a new BF3 DLC!?

Me and my brother played all of the old lucas arts and sierra games. Tex Murphy is still my brother's favorite series. I loved King's Quest, Space Quest, Monkey Island, Full Throttle, and others.

I stayed up late last night playing Duke 3D. I haven't played that game in so long and I actually forgot how much fun it was. I've got balls of steel!

Nah, it will be the first BF4 DLC, allowing use of the D, O, and S keys for only $10! They have plans for WAQ, ERC, and 123 as well depending on sales of DOS.

Kings Quest 6 is EASILY the video game I have replayed the most to this day... Its what got me into gaming as a child.

Does anyone remember a DOS game made by The Far Side (yeah the comics) that was choose-your-own-adventure type game? No graphics, just straight up text and my imagination. I cant for the life of me remember the name of it though and google has not aided me in finding it.
