Try to mix in as many systems as possible:

Here are my choices, with systems:

1: Bards Tale 1 on C64

2: Donkey Kong on the Colecovision

3: Pirates for the C64, Apple, and Amiga

4: B-52 bomber on the Intellivision

5: M.U.L.E. on various systems......awesome game.

In no particular order

M.U.L.E (1983) - Agreed. The daddy of all strategy games. Respect it wink.gif

Bard's Tale (1985)

Legend of Zelda (1986)

Sid Meier's Pirates (1987 I think)

Tetris (1986) - The best game ever.

I could have chosen about 30 others though.

The origional Railroad Tycoon was an awesome game, epecially on my old mac Plus, But I don't remember if it fits the pre-1988 requirement, maybe someone couold help me on that. Operation:Desert Storm by bungie (makers of halo) was also a really good old mac game, But I can't remember if it was pre-1988 either.

for some really good old mac games(abandonware) check here at the macintosh garden

I'm pretty sure the PC version is pre-1988...

1. Railraod Tycoon (1 is MUCH better then 2, IMO)

2. Civilization ( The first was the best, onyl got worse with age)

3. Tetris

4. Zelda

5. Pacman (Ah, the years of my life i have lost/am losing..)
Ditto Much
Ports of Call
Mission Impossible
Bubble Bobble (brilliant game)
Ghouls 'n' Ghosts
Farey Tale Adventure




(Although I'm tempted to through in TV Sports Basketball, a very under rated game, and The Three Stooges (Cinemaware / Mindscape) was also under rated )

Oh yeah the Bards Tale was boring even compared to Ports of Call.

Defnately Pirates! was my favorite computer game back then. Most of the others I played were text based Zork type games. Oh and Oregon Trail!

Non PC games, I would say Pitfall, Galaga, Mega Man, Dragon Warrior, and... Lode Runner
