*Really* Classic Games
 
Looking for some classic games that are even more classic than Everquest, like say Golden Axe, Lode Runner, or even the original Street Fighter 2? The people who make the Wayback machine just launched a new Internet Arcade:

They're all games you could have run on a MAME emulator, but now they're available on the web. Great way to waste some time at work :)

Holy shit, definitely among the first games I ever played...

Prince of Persia immediately comes to mind when thinking of classic-classic games.

And hell yeah on Golden Axe, that game sucked up so many hours of my childhood. Always had to go Dwarf... that barrel roll!

I'm still looking for old school PC games. Like Advanced D&D games such as Pools of Darkness, Eye of the Beholder, Stronghold, etc... As well as Hexen, and Heretic.

Torrents.

I actually played through Stronghold recently, such a solid game. Too bad the sequel was so terrible.

That moment when you open the Randomizer present when there's only 4-5 left to identify... :(

How am I supposed to play Prince of Persia and Lemmings? I haven't kept my manuals all these years. How are you supposed to get codes for the next level? That website has obvious flaws.
