I currently still have copies of many of these games, so I started flashing back to playing all of these as a kid. anyone else still own any of these?

even the hardest cats out there played most of these games coming up - they may not admit it tho.

The King's Quest and Space Quest series were great...Quest for Glory and Eco Quest were great series too...hey there's a game on there called "Uchi Mata"...like the sweep...anyway with those games I'd be stuck at one part for like 2 weeks before I figured out you had to tie the string to the toothbrush to retrieve Morgin, the Evil Magicians book without waking him up...oh those were the days...actually I guess with the earlier King's Quest games you had to type in everything you wanted him to do and if you typed in a curse word it said something like "You must have been raised by a naughty wizard!" Kinda like in Big where Tom Hanks melts some dude by "Throwing Thermal Pod".

EDIT: A quick internet search reveals that that "dude" Hanks melted was actually the "Ice Wizard"...dag that grown up Hanks was clever...

Does anybody remember Autoduel? That was one of my favorites back in the day. Mad-Max style car game.

We borrowed it from a friend, and I had a LOT of trouble getting it to work. I remember trying every day for about a month before I could get it to fully work. I would try for 30 minutes and then quit. My brother finally got it figured out.

I guess I was a really bored kid at the time, because I could remember reading the user manual almost every night and getting completely stoked about playing.

Anybody remember or even see a FPS named Catacombs? Pre-dated doom. How about one for the Atari called Tunnel Runner? Cool first person game where you were pac-man running through the maze with the ghost after you.
