Some of the Best Old Games

I played videogames a lot as a child. I probably played more videogames from ages 10-15 than most gamers have played in their lifetime. While some games were so bad I returned them one day after purchase, others were good enough to make me want to tell you about them today. One of my all time favorite games as a child was Roller Coaster Tycoon. You were essentially playing God (if God really liked to build amusement parks). I don't know what made Roller Coaster Tycoon so fun, but I can recall countless hours of building roller coasters only designed to fail and kill the riders. Is that weird? Anyway, another one of my all time favorite games was Unreal Tournament 2004. This game was so good and revolutionary that their is still a community playing it today; 9 years after its release!. What I mean by revolutionary is, from what my brother told me, that it was the first game to incorporate rag-doll physics to players that have died. For those of you that don't know, rag-doll physics are the animation and response that your character has to the environment after death, for example, if your character gets shot by a shotgun, a rag-doll effect would be him being blown backwards from the blast. Before rag-doll physics in games, every character or enemy would die in the same way over and over; fall down as solid as a brick for example. Both Roller Coaster Tycoon and Unreal Tournament 2004 have amazing replay value to this day. If you havn't played either of these gamed then you should, they can't be more than $10 each.
