Civ2 > Civ3 when I want scenarios, unless I'm bored and want "shiny new-looking" stuff and cultures....then Civ3 > Civ2, of course. It's basically Civ2=Civ3 on average.

Oh, and Sim City (SNES) > Sim City (PC).

As for slightly older games than that...Hidden Agenda, Middle East Political Simulator and another political-type game I can't quite remember are cool too (I don't recall where to get them, use google.com or something).

The first three Space Quest games. Oh man I loved those games. Sigh.

Cool ass old games:

1. Metroid
2. Defender
3. Joust
4. Missle Command
5. Galaga
6. Berzerker
7. Warlords

Weak ass old games:

1. Qbert
2. Maze Craze
3. Pac Man

Depends on the game, the key is for the newer games to advance in game play and in "fun", not just graphics and sound and the like.

Europa Universalis II simply crushes all strategy games that came before it(probably my favorite game of all time). Also, not many older games will compete with Starcraft/Warcraft III, as Battle.net allows months and months if not years of replayability.

Starcraft forever

It was far more fun to me than AoK is now. Obviously, AoK is more advanced than Z,

That's because AOK sucks. Get Total Annihilation, Warlords Battlecry II, or Kohan if you want a fun RTS.

I am enjoying the demo of Warlords IV now.

If we're really talking about golden oldies then I can remember having a eight hour long Pac-Man contest with my uncle back in like 1984. My cousin and I used to play pong (let's see how many of you whipper-snappers even know what that one is/was) for hours on end (though I think those funny paddles used to play the game were never used for any other games). Space Invaders & Asteroid also win awards in my mind.

Newer games include all of my C64 favorite. Spyhunter, 7 Cities of Gold, Pool of Radience, That one spy game with the evil master mind who says "Stay a while.... STAY OF EVER!!!! HAHAHAHA" (Which game was that?), Blue Max, Red Storm Rising, Dragon Riders of the Pern, and others.

The game is great (if somewhat buggy - but it didn't interfere with my enjoying the game). And it spawned three sequels, so someone must agree with me.

Unless you're confusing it with Starfleet Academy. That game sucked.

OMFG CIV3 SUX

Not surprisingly, there are lots of tiny brained wipers of other people's bottoms
