    No one said it yet, so I offer:

    Slave Zero.

    It was one of those rampage, run and gun, giant robot city destroying games.

    I remember it wouldn’t run on “modern” operating systems, so it had to be emulated, but was so much fun stomping tanks and firing giant guns at skyscraper-sized robots.

    I’m late but Quest for Glory is one of the best games of ever.

    Combat was pretty horrible though. The rest of it was amazing.

    Counter-strike 1.6. That game meant the world to me. I remember all the fun mods like surfing, knife, kz (climbing), zombie survival, grenades only, knife with janky ass cars.

    I know certain modes can be found now too in games like roblox. My little sister plays roblox and plays a ton of the climbing ones (i think its called obby or something). But i miss the counter strike gameplay. I think my favorite was bunnyhop hide and seek. I hosted a server and it got pretty popular. We all build fun levels together and played all day. I miss these old dedicated server games with fun mods 😔.

      Someone else that played America’s Army!

      I loved that game, even with all its faults. I still remember those maps fondly. I haven’t found another game that quite scratches that slow-paced strategic shooter itch. (But then, I hardly ever play multiplayer games these days anyway.)

    Dig Dug, Battlezone (the wireframe “3d” tank game), and C&C Red Alert 2. Those 3 will always live in my head rent-free, and they’re more than welcome to.

    Civilization (1/2/3 all sort of blend together for me), Sid Meier’s Pirates!, Master of Orion, Master of Magic, Magic Carpet, Half-Life, Hexen, Team Fortress/Quake, Duke Nukem3D, Warcraft/Starcraft, Diablo, C&C, and so many others that remind of being at home on my Dad’s then-cutting edge computer, before my Dad died, before I graduated school and had my own kids, before my parent’s divorced, before everything got worse than it was, life was good just hanging out and playing games. The games may be “better” now, but I’d give anything to go back to the 90s/00s all over again.
