Ok so im going into playing classic games as i've been told that there are a few good classics around and i was wondering if you guys could recommend me some of them

What kind of games are you interested in? What modern games do you play? What classic games have you played before?

Try these games:

Beyond Good & Evil;
Clive Barker's Undying;
Giants: Citizen Kabuto;
MDK;
Neverwinter Nights Diamond;
Return to Castle Wolfenstein;
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series;
Syberia series;
System Shock series.

I hope you will love them.

the modern games i play fall under action, fps ,adventure ,horror ,survival, zombie survival,tps, some strategy games

as for classic games the classic games ive played in the past are sam and max, shadow warrior classics, mdk, witchhaven, the first tomb raider games like tomb raider 1 and 2, king of fighters 98, street fighter, ya know games like these that fall into the respective genres also i played Advent Rising its actually one of my favourite classics i really wanted to see a sequal but it didnt happen to the company being bankrupt i think I love the S.T.A.L.K.E.R series as well as MDK AND Giants: Citizen Kabuto <- this game had me literally made me laugh and in most games that claim to be in the "comedy" genre or has the tag its not easy to make me laugh but it hit its mark but i will definitely check these out thanks alot

You might like Sacrifice too.

it looks......weird..i like it already thanks =p

by classic do you mean just old but good, or "judged over a period of time to be of the highest quality and outstanding of its kind" (i.e. not necessarily that old, but the best of it's genre) or "very typical of its kind." (i.e. a quintessential game of that genre).

Ok, I'm using a broader definition of classic games here, some of them are from 2k+, but still a bit older now.

Adventure games:
Sam & Max Hit The Road? In that case you might also enjoy Day of the Tentacle, if you haven't played it already. And maybe the Monkey Island games (although personally I don't really like the Special editions available here).

FPS:
I suppose you've also played Doom & Doom 2? If not, those are obligatory! ;) Other than that, I quite like Outlaws, too (spaghetti western FPS).

Action Adventures / TPS:
Psychonauts (it's usually very cheap during sales). Maybe Outcast or Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time? I'm quite fond of Enclave myself, but it's not to everyone's taste (and I recommend playing on Easy difficulty for this one, even if you usually choose higher difficulties).

You didn't list RPGs under your favorite genres, but if you're at least open to action-oriented 3D RPGs, I recommend to try Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines and Arx Fatalis.

rpgs are one of my favs so its cool ive played doom its good...ive beaten prince of persia sands of time on playstation 2 really cool game had some replayability for me i'll give psychonauts a go since its one of the games i was supposed to check out in my digging around as well. Enclave? hmmm i'll check it out as well and as for Vampire Masquerade...someone told me it was good and someone told me it was crap sooo i guess i will just have to play it for myself.. thanks for the recommendations hope you enjoy the rest of your evening/day =)

If you liked the humor in Giants: Citizen Kabuto, you could also check out Armed & Dangerous by the same developers. I don't think it's widely recognized as a classic though. Giants is probably the more interesting game, but Armed and Dangerous has similar humor.

You played other games I mentioned?
Oh, sorry, didnt see your last words.

nope those are the ones im gonna check out

These are my favorite classics. You gonna have a wonderful time.
