During a recent long car ride with a friend, we got to talking about old video games, reminiscing about favorites from the previous decade like Privateer, Aces of the Pacific, Secret Weapons Of The Luftwaffe, Full Throttle, and Gabriel Knight.
Man, I need to set up a 486 running DOS so I can get all those old CDs down from the attic...

(Man, when did people stop making fun combat flight simulators, anyway?
Seems like all there is anymore is cartoonish action-game ones, or crazy hyperrealism like Falcon or MSFS.)

If you've got a decent computer running XP or possibly Vista, Dosbox will run most of those games. I've played Ultima Underworld, Jagged Alliance, Masters of Orion and a few other games with it just fine.
