Interesting, not promoting piracy, but if the game is that old might be abandonware, so you can download it anywhere legally.

Anyways to run old games, use DOSBox.

No, I'm not gonna start the stupid argument about WoW takes your life, etc.

I hate WoW because of this:

The Warcraft games have always had a special place in my heart, and Warcraft III and its expansion are still one of my most played games, but if there was something I loved about those games it's the storytelling. The story, lore, universe of Warcraft is simply fascinating, and all the stories and plot developed on Warcraft III were excellent IMO, much much better than most games these days.

And I remember playing the bonus campaign that comes with TFT, I remember the cliff-hanger ending along the lines of this: "Stay tuned on the warcraft website for the continuation of this story...". Well so I did, but when WoW came out all my hopes were crushed, I was so hoping the continuation of Rexxar's story, but WoW being the most profitable game in the market right now, and with its upcoming expansion, I don't think there will ever be a proper sequel to the Warcraft series. I mean, come on! I think Thrall and Illidan are killed daily in WoW. I want to know what happened to Arthas, etc. No spoilers here, please...

*sheds a tear*

TL;DR: I hate WoW because it ruined the Warcraft lore.

With that setup Max Payne is a must.

There's also Vampire: Bloodlines and Arcanum, two excellent RPGs by Troika.

OH! I forgot, I'm gonna change Bioshock for COD 4.

Yes that HAS to be the most overrated game ever, a campaign that is a joke, with primitive gameplay: no interaction with the environment, no PHYSICS!, reespawning enemies (come on!), average graphics.

In before storm of flaming: "lol you should play COD on hardcore, that way the game is longer" so by increasing the difficulty, and dying more times, and being more frustrated makes the game longer, well, that's true...

And another people: "lol COD is teh king of MP", might be true or not, I don't care about MP, I loved the first COD games, and they had excellent campaigns, thrilling campaigns...

So if COD is only worth the multiplayer alone, why the hell so high reviews?

And best graphics awards, etc... I won't even bother with this one.

At least I enjoyed Bioshock.

[QUOTE="Twin-Blade"]

[QUOTE="modai119"]Bioshock, Halo series, Oblivion, all of Madden series, GTA4 (Story was good but most of us were spoiled by SA with side missions) and Gears of War.Vfanek

Makes me die a little inside when people say GoW is over rated.. I love that game to death... :(

I never liked it one bit, guess it's a love or hate game :|

Mmm, no, I hate and love Gears, it has the idea of the cover system which I love and invented a decade ago...

But I never liked the aliens, they were too tough, it made it a bit boring. I completed the game, but I don't like when your enemies are marginally more powerful than you. Besides that, the cover system was excellent, the graphics were quite good and scalable, and the weapons felt good.

But the difficulty? was a turn off for me.

A bit overrated yes, but not hugely overrated like Oblivion and Bioshock.
