[QUOTE="voodoothe2nd"]Don't know if anyone already said this but Starcraft was the beginning of all (or most) modern video games, it served as a base for warcraft lll. I wonder why Starcraft and Warcraft are still so expensive... Starcraft is 10 years old and less than 200 MB in size, you can almost email it ( It would take a while to get to destination and most browsers have limits but... anyway)kingrich06
not really expensive i've seen the BattleChest of Starcraft for about 15$ new in some stores. Really? Sould have waited to buy it... Too late now, I find it cool: Warcraft lll was my first strategy game and years later I'm playing AND enjoying Starcraft! I got warcraft for 30$ I think and Starcraft for 20$ about although when I got Warcraft (the battlechest edition) it was fairly new.
Does anyone know what ever happened to the game Tanaka 3d??
It appears there has been only a demo released in 1999, and the project went dead from there on.
Here's a link and the demo:

MythPro, I really like this thread, and regularly refer to it, but just ran across an error. When you added "Spellforce", you set it up with a link to Star Rangers 2 instead.
Dude you crazy...lol! why would you take teh time to make a lsit? i dont even nknow what the list is for? if it is just a list of good games put Star wars galactic battlegrounds on there 1 & 2!
[QUOTE="Skullheart"]Wow, sticky this thread?Kiwi_1
On *THIS* web site, it seems like pinning threads at the top is just a way to guarantee that the subject matter is ignored !
Well, I don't read stickies too often, and I know damn sure that mods don't read "sticky this" often either... so you're S.O.L. On the plus side, good readers will bump the thread after enjoying it and perhaps add their own suggestions to the thread at the same time. :D

Good to see the Close Combat series listed.. as it seems to be very under rated. I still play CC5.. awesome game.. lots of mods STILL being made for all the games in the CC series too.
If that's the case, then yes I am mad. Also, please spell out the "OF," not very good with acronyms. MythPro1
You don't know what OF is? OMG. It stands for... hmmmm... probably "Old" something. Maybe Old Fighter... or Old Ffff.... hmmm. Well, anyways the point is that it's obvious.
This should be stickyed somewhere! Your racing lineup is weak. I cant remeber it but there was one classic racing game that rose above the rest grad prix legend? can't remember. I think there should be like a year limit like say you can't post games that are less than say like 2 years or 3 years old or something like that, agreed?

I go by what people recommend. I'm not a big racing fan.
Great thread good to see different games being mentioned. What about adding the very first computer game Spacewars. Its available for free below and for the very first computer game its not too shabby spent hours playing it.
That was a great list but there were no recommedations for the Massively Multiplayer online games. i am begining to discover and explore this genre and am leaning toward the Star Wars universe or Lord of the Rings but seeing as Star Wars galaxies was not well recieved... so any opinions on a good mmo game to start. thanks for your time
Like to suggest The Thing. Truly scarey @ the time and the team's trust/fear factor totally original. Great survival horror especially if fan of movie - the last great pre-CGI special effects.
I think you should include the following games too - Business Strategy : Railroad Tycoon series, Capitalism, Port Royale, Patrician. Strategy: Tropico 1 and 2, Railroad pioneer, Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader.
What about adding "Rise of the Triad" and "Dark Forces" under the shooter section? Those were both excellent games back in the day, and shouldn't be forgotten.
