The manual for IM or IM 2 gives a psych profile of the villian. It mentions that although he considers himself a gourmet, he loves twinkies and other junkfood.
Remember, being a world-threatening megalomaniac means never having to go to another room to get chocolate.
Robin Hood: Conquest of the Longbow
I played that game all the time on our old computer. Apparently it would still run but I need to find the disks which I hope no one tossed on me…
Technically, it’s only legal for those who already own the games.
Okay, but the IDSA - who are pretty much (for better or for worse) a large body of enforcement in the area of software copyrights - bit at the site’s heels for awhile, and then withdrew when it realised that it’s efforts were completely misplaced and unecessary.
(Ip osted this earlier but the board went funny)
Games I’d like to play again. Not sure if they count in the OP as they might still work.
Flashback and Little Big Adventure.
I’ve bidded for both on e-bay.
I’m afraid that I am not technically inclined. I tried to get some of the old games that I own (but the computer or console no longer works), and I just could not get them to run. I have no idea what “running a batch file” entails.
Subtrade sounds great. Don’t know if I can get it to run, but one of MULE’s weak points was its graphics.
Hey, if I was a world-threatening megalomaninac, I would certainly make sure I had adequate access to chocolate. As it is, my husband and daughter know to LEAVE MY CHOCOLATE ALONE. I’m diabetic, but my doctor knows that I drink a couple of glasses of chocolate milk a day. Since I can keep my blood sugar under control even with this chocolate, she is OK with that. She says that not feeling deprived will probably keep me from binging and/or climbing a tower with a rifle.
Interstate '76. One of the greats.
Chaos Overlords was an overlooked gem. It refuses to even install on anything other than Win95, which is a design decision that makes me want to pund my head into a wall. Or rather, the head of whoever made that decision.
A batch file? Very simple. Just run the file that ends in .bat.
Interstate 76 is, interestingly, where my user name comes from. Gaming clan thing.
Frankly, I’ve been incredibly happy with my Gameboy Advance SP… between my Atari and Namco museum carts, I’ve got Ms. Pac-Man, Pole Position, Galaga, Galaxian, Missile Command, Super Break-Out, Dig-Dug, Asteroids…
And for my PS2, best twenty bucks I’ve spent in years was Midway Arcade Adventures. Spy Hunter. Defender, Defender II, Gauntlet. Joust. Paperboy. Rampage. Robotron. Smast TV. Roadblasters… did you know that was a toy tie-in? Sinistar. Marble Madness. 720. Toobin.
I swear, the only game I’m ‘missing’ is Deadly Discs of Tron.
On the other hand, I always said Pokemon reminded me of Final Fantasy I.
Yea but is it as good as Nethack? 
I’d forgotten how much I used to love Bruce Lee for the C64. A very simple game but I loved every second of it.
That, and the old Conan the Barbarian and Snake Byte games for the Apple II.
Impossible Mission for C64 was awesome! I loved the way the guy would scream when he fell off a ledge. 
If arcade games count, I’d like Spy Hunter, complete with steering wheel and gas pedal.
Hmmmmm, M.U.L.E. or Nethack? I don’t think that I can really compare the two. MULE was a race against time and a competition against other players (human or computer). Nethack has no time limit, and competition is strictly optional. I think that they’re both excellent games, but they’re very different types of games. Sometimes I’m in the mood for one sort, sometimes for another kind of game.
I will say this…often, when the SDMB is slow, I’ll have a Nethack game open in the background, so that I can switch back and forth from the game to the boards. I sure wouldn’t be able to do that with MULE, even if I had a version that would run on this machine!
