Default Old games still cherished today!

As I was talking about C&C, I felt the urge to find all the old games I had. Here's a list of all the games that have made it throught the passage of time - in my closet.

Fallout 1 and 2
C&C, C&C RA, C&C Tiberium Sun, Red Alert 2, Yuris revenge.
Tropico
X-Com UFO Defense (OMGOMG I'm installing this on my lappy ASAP, I can't believe i still have it.)
X-Com: Apocalypse
Torment: Planescape
Septerra Core (I love Interplays old RPGs)
Delta Force 2
Roller Coaster Tycoon (13th b-day present I believe)
America: The game (Whatever happened to DATABECKER anyways?)
Half-Life
Microsoft Combat Flight simulator (Wow, its been a long while since M$ Coding something well)
Stronghold: Crusader (I can't find the original =( )
1602 A.D. (Yeah.... wow)
NFS: Porsche Unleashed
Rainbow 6
Battlefield 1942 (kinda new still though)

Wow, this is about 1/3 of all the games I used to own lolz. I used to hava a huge stack (like, $600 worth of games. I remember my first pc game - a hot wheels game rofl) laying around somewhere, If I ever find it I'll post the contents.

Speaking of which, I did a search for Fallout, and I am dissappointed >:| I feel the urge to chase the admins with sharp objects now.

Fallout is my all-time favorite games, and I CAN NOT EXPRESS TO YOU guys how much I look forward to the next game, Fallout 3. But then my heart sank as soon as I heard Interplay wasn't making it - Bethesda was, and it would be using the oblivion engine...

Anybody heard anything on this game? It was announced a long time ago and I haven't heard anything since.

Ok I'm done.

Well anyways, what old games do you still have around? Not just abandonware that you downloaded, I mean original copies from like, 5 years ago.

I think the title of this thread is wrong. Your not talking about classic games, your talking about older games. Classic Games are
Pac Man
Pole Position
Space Invaders
Centipede
Donkey Kong
Frogger

Titles like these. To me classic means 20 years or older, and is still very well know today.

I was a huge fan of the Descent games. I owned everything up until Descent 3. Even made some of my own maps with the mission builder.

I gotta agree, Descent was something. I remember flying with my joystick and shooting everything that moved, that was awesome.

I remember everyone freaking out about the ability to shoot through glass in this one game. Its was so awesome and funny at the same time.

I used to have the original UT, but it go lost in the clothes of time (and probably scratched beyond all recognition).

Anyone remember the original C&C: Red Alert, the discs were written and labeled wrong? My Soviets disc is actually the Allies, and vice versa.
