Ask HN: What is your favorite retro game?
15 comments
From 2000 and before I still enjoy Doom and Quake with mods and some 16-bit emulated games sometimes. I play pretty much all the popular retro-inspired shooters too: Dusk, Amid Evil, Ion Fury, HROT, Project Warlock, etc.
Today? It's Metal Slug 5 ;)

Original Nintendo: Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy 1 (favorite games ever)
Original Playstation: Diablo 1 and Resident Evil 1
Age of Empires 2
So few 'new' games even compare to the old ones. Too much hand holding, not enough 'depth' to the games.
