    [​IMG] I was wondering what the oldest game people still play regularly is.

    For me the oldest I still play all the time is Master of Orion II.

    After that it would Diablo 2 LOD.

    Sid Meier's Colonization! I recently completed a game with the Dutch (who else) on the Americas map and got a score of 117% (difficulty level: governor). I even reached the population limit!

    I just love the old turn-based games like Civilization I and II and Colonization...

    Civilization II: Test of Time. Wonderful game, that. Recently started up a new game of it in fact, as Grand Magistrate Li'netha of the Ponn Jahr in the Sci-Fi scenario.

    Ultima I - VII. I have an old laptop that I keep around solely for playing these games.

    I'm currently playing Heroes of Might and Magic III, which is fairly old.

    Regulary? I'm still playing SMACX.

    After that, I still go back to Ultima VII sometimes.

    Civ' II:Test of Time if you ignore the fact that it is basically a more modern OS friendly version of the much older Civ II w/ Fantastic Worlds.

    I also play a whole slew of other older RPGs(roguelikes included but often updated versions such as Falcon's Eye Nethack) and such.

    Games such as Heroes III(Complete ed.), Warlords III:DLR, Jagged Alliance 2, BG/BG2/Fallout/etc. and several others never leave my HD.

    Excluding games that I've already finished and are merely replaying, it'd have to be BloodNet (1993).

    Magic the Gathering (1995) is still installed on my Win98. I occassionally play a few card duels when I have time to kill.

    Starflight! Now there's a blast from the past! I had both 1 and 2 and played them religeously! Oh, those wiley Spemens! What a great game!

    Anyone ever play Mordor? I recently dug up my old copy and installed it. It isn't quite as fun as when I used to play it constantly, but it's great for a bit of nostalgia.

    Icewind Dale and BGII are the two oldest games I have loaded on my hard drive and play regularly. I think they both came out about the same time, but I can't remember which one came out first. :hmm:

    But, Lands of Lore - Guardians of Destiny, is the oldest game I have loaded at the moment. But I don't play it very much.

    Diablo. Then BG after that. Hmm, come to think of it, I don't really have that many PC games, I just keep playing them over and over...

    Anacreon probably - though I play the updated version. Have a bunch of Atari ST games here that I've never played though.

    Otherwise there's Fallout or PS:T...
