You have a copy of King's Quest 5 and you didn't tell me? -_-
While I never played 5, I
did play 6 (it came with the first "multimedia kit" my parents bought) and
loved it. I'm still trying to hunt down a copy that will work in Windows 2000.
Oh, and speaking of classing gaming, I have happened to compile a CD of classic games, though perhaps not as ancient as the ones discussed on this thread. Doom, Hexen, Quake 1, Stargunner, and other assorted titles. I also compiled a second CD with maps and game enhancements, such as
Doom Legacy and the bliss that is
Tenebrae.
Yesh, I'm old-school, but I also dig playing Doom and Quake with souped-up graphics. Games like Starflight tend to freak out on a Windows 2000 machine with a 1GHz machine, but, meh, I still have copies of SF1 and SF2.
And hey, if you dig classic DOS games, then you all might be surprised to know that I wrote one in DOS with the help of a few classmates during my senior year in high school.
Check it out if you need a good laugh.
Of course, there's also the topic of emulation, but that's a thread unto itself...
