Old Mac Games
« on: November 27, 2010, 02:06:20 AM »
I just became really interested with old mac games, share some favs!

Right now I'm playing:
Fallout 1 (finally)
Wasteland (like this one because it reminds me of a GM RPG)
This Cannot be, NOOOOOOOO!!!!

-Gnomes Cry when the McRib was discontinued again.

I've been trying to find a copy/download of "Load Runner: The Legend Returns", because it's awesome and it had a level editor and stuff.
Currently I still have Sim City/Sim Ant/Sim Farm, and The Incredible Machine.....
Yeah I have quite a few old games. Oh and Duke Nukem. That game is badass.

If you're looking for some good games try Ambrosia's website, those were ALL pretty cool. Also Pangea. I feel like a nerd now for knowing so much about it. ;D

This forum got kinda quiet recently huh?

Did you ever play Lode Runner 2?  It was a 3D/isometric version of Lode Runner with a level editor and stuff.  My brother was really into it and made some sweet levels.

Anyway, my favorite mac game would have to be Bugdom, because it came with my first mac and it was the first video game I played with any degree of focus.  The first level music still makes me want to cry.  Unreal Tournament was another favorite as well; it was my first and only FPS (not counting UT2004).  I got it for my PC so I could use the editor, which was great because I always fantasized about making my own maps.

Oh yeah.  Tropico was great too.  I remember faking sick from school so that I could play it all day and eat junk food.  Every time I eat a particular kind of cookie (Keebler fudge grahams) I go on a nostalgia trip to me in 8th grade playing Tropico for hours.  I want to get Tropico 3, which came out last year I think.  It looks really fantastic, and it has improved road-building tools, which is really a fetish of mine.  I would probably play a traffic-simulation/planning game if one was released.

Yeah I played Lode Runner 2, all I could ever find is the demo of it though. I seems as if the full version was wiped off the face of the Earth. (If you know anything about it I'd like to know :P)
 Bugdom was my favorite for a long time as well. I liked much all of Pangeas games. In fact, have you ever played Cro-Mag Rally? The multiplayer is great.

I searched on ebay and found LR2 for cheap, here's the link if you're interested:

Cro-mag rally was awesome as well.  The tournament mode was kinda easy, but my brother and I wasted a lot of time bombing each other with roman candles in multiplayer.

I remember Cro Ma Rally! All Pangea games rocked. Bugdom 1 and 2, Otto Matic, Engimo, - those were some fun games.

Mighty Mike was the best game ever.
I survived the spammage of 2007

I remember buying Mighty Mike, that game was fun! Then I had trouble running it on Classic Mode so I can't anymore.
OH and Wing Nuts, that is and older OS X game but it is so cool. (That's yet another company, FreeVerse - Check that out too) Oh and Thx for the help I'll see how high bids for that game go...
