While doing my recent top 5 Amiga games, I got to thinking about the early PC games that I also enjoyed. I got into PC gaming in the late 90s and early noughties. Please note, these are merely the games that I particularly enjoyed: X-Wing: Alliance Included in this is the entire X-Wing series, but I started with Alliance. Needs a joystick, but the inclusion of the requirement to manage your ship’s energy (lasers/shields/engines) adds another dimension.

I was thinking recently about the amount of time I spent playing games when I was younger. I don’t have as much appetite any longer for playing games. The only game I play now is Team Fortress 2, and even that very irregularly. The only game that would probably take me back into the market is Half Life 3… So, to archive my gaming childhood, I decided to put together the accompanying list.

In the past few months I’ve run into quite a few ’list’ site. I thought I’d just throw a few on the page here see if can build up a list of lists. So, here we go: http://www.engrish.com http://failblog.org http://www.headsethotties.com/ http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com/ http://www.bash.org http://www.truthbank.ie
