    It just dawned on me that nobody has mentioned Doom yet.  That is a classic franchise.

    Cudos on the Wolfenstein though.

          I'm sure that there could be, but I was never around that stuff when it was new or anything so its all second hand too me.  But I was meanig finding some good ones for it.

          There were 486 machines that were made with the SX rather than DX chipsets(it has to do with the math co-pro), and some games just don't run well on the SX machines.

              Another World (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Another_World_(video_game)&oldid=321800012) was a great game, not alot of replay value and sadly no sequel.   Scorched Earth, Death Rally, Wolf 3D, Spear of Destiny, all bring back some great memories too.  What a glorious time ... when games fit on a single floppy disk :)

                  NUMBER 1 -------  XCOM series especially and only up to Apocolypse. All the XCOM games beyond Apocolypse are pants.

                  -Pacific Commander and Strike Commander, of the Wing Commander fame. Great graphics and gameplay for the day, i486 era!
