* Dune II
* Settlers ( Never had the real game, but my neighbor and I played the demo until we dropped... )
* Lotus 1, 2 & 3
* Buggy Boy
* UFO: Enemy Unknown
* Wings
* Silkworm

Probably more, but my memory is faulty. Even if I were to remember the games, I prolly forgot the names. One thing I notice though, is that I was SO glad when I got my first CD-ROM drive. I thought I finally got rid of the endless disc-swapping...

Nowadays, games on 5 CDs aren't all that rare anymore :(

OK, here's my favorites - oldies but goldies:

1. FATE - Gates Of Dawn (played it regularly for more than
 two years without even finishing - this game is HUUUGE :-)

2. Civilization (finishing at least 10 times)

3. Elite (2)

4. Pinball Dreams/Illusions/Fantasies

5. Ports Of Call


Happy gaming!

My pick would be SideWinder, Technocop, Silkworm, Gods, and SWIV.  These games STILL ROCK !!!!   :-D
My favorite TV shows:  Star Trek Voyager, Forever Knight, Stargate SG1, Married with Children, As Time Goes By, Mr. Bean, Smallville, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Xena

BEAST (still cool after all these years)
VIRUS (all night long, insane on 040+)
DUNE2 (but I liked the books better)
DM/CSB (heeeeYah!)
STRYX (except, from HD on my son's 3000, it's buggy)

and others... for pure "how many years of my life have been wasted by a game" points, I'd say VIRUS tops the list.

I used to have a Virus Scoreboard on my site, I'd love to put it up again. Any other Virus fiends out there? The first day I had the game I played for something like 14 hours straight. David Braben rocks (where have we heard that before), and Virus is one sick and twisted game, esp. on an accellerated box. Nothing quite like level 7 or 8 on an 040 (unless you've managed to get it to run on a Dual G4 when I wasn't looking...) The faster the machine the *further* you can go, if ya ketch me drifffff...

  The games on Amigas AND on Cloanto Amiga Forever emulator I find the most addictive include:

a. Fastram 'DOZER' (demo in an Amiga format AF58 1994 - 100 level disk available back then for £5/shared by me as .adf often on WinMX/Soulseek).
b. All of LEMMINGS, although some of Christmas ones were a bit ropey.
c. CADAVER - both games plus 3 magazine demos.
d. KNIGHTMARE plus 3 magazine demos.
e. All of DIZZY adventure games.
f. MONKEY ISLAND 1 & 2.
g. INDY/ATLANTIS.
h. GODS.
i. HEAD OVER HEELS.
j. BATMAN THE CAPED CRUSADER - both parts (although the Commodore C64 version played/ran better).
k. RICK DANGEROUS 1 & 2.
l. MAGIC POCKETS.
m. TIMEKEEPERS - both games.

  Although annoying at times, I like a bit SIMON THE SORCEROR and originally bought PCs from 1996 to play 3D LEMMINGS-SIMON THE SORCEROR 2.

  Only decent PC games I have bought/play are MONKEY ISLAND 3 & 4 and INDY/INFERNAL MACHINE (follow up XBox developed PC INDY/EMPEROR'S TOMB is too bad in places).

   These were for me so addictive that every couple of years I took a year or two out from work to play them as they were more fun.
