There where games on the computer that didnt need a high end computer to run what where some of your favorites from when you where a kid
one of mine was the Organ trail it ran on my grandmas old computer
i use to spend the summer with my grandparents just to play that
and then there was this one game i dont remember much about but it was a game that a puzzle game it came in generations like
grade 1-5
man good games dont remember the names tho

what about yours?

Oregon Trail For sure... My brother and I always used to role play. For some reason I always died... jerk...

Sim town- Sim city sorta, but a lot easier and a lot more fun

Then there was this mother goose one where you had to go around and put all the nursery stories back in order (since everything was all mixed up)

Peg Leg For Kids- it was a never ending rocket ship game where all you had to do was shoot different objects in space. AWESOME!!!! can't find it anywhere though.

The fisher price games on the computer, Western, Castle, Pirate adventures.

Backyard Football. the one with john elway as a kid. Always used him as my quarter back.

Those are the ones from my youth that I really remember well. All the other ones I played were good, but those I spent so much time on! I never beat the mother goose one... very sad.... and now I can't find it

Putt Putt, Pajama Sam, and Freddi Fish. :wub:
Edit: They changed the wub emoticon. Bastards!

that peg leg game ive never heard of it and i search for it and nothing comes up
sure thats the name

thats what I remember it being. It probably had another name, but I was like 6 or 7 when I played it. I really can't remember. It was either the game name was pegleg, or the companies name was pegleg. Or it is just so old that they got rid of it.

Crash Bandicoot, Crash Team Racing, And Gran Turismo 2 were my first 3 video games.

As a kid, I grew up on a Mac (power pc) so I wasn't open to the broad array of games the PC had. I still had some fun with the independent developers games, though.

You know, those two games were awesome. I remember playing those, but Pajama Sam always freaked me out. (Hey man, I was little )

The first couple Delta Force games were the first games I ever played on my dads PC. I was actually pretty good for like a 4-5 yr. old, still loved sniping back then to.

My family got a Sega Saturn when it first came out. I remember watching my dad play them, and then once I was old enough to understand what to do, I would play them as well. Here are a few that I remember:
Panzer Dragoon
House of the Dead
Tomb Raider
