There's always haters but one time I hit the dislike on a video by accident and didn't care to change it and another time as a goof on the poster.

[@enniusdrusus867]

This is a nice way to protest against the removal of a functionality.

[@goos4298]

Please Part 2

[@FacingWorlds84]

This was the best time ever

[@hime1269]

Still playing Fallout 1-2 and Jagged Alliance series. They were too good for their era.

[@vladdracul5072]

Me, too. Also Might and Magic 6, Alpha Centauri and X-Com Apocalypse.

[@FunFragger]

Really awesome list! I owned so many of these games and loved them sooo much! Played hours and hours on these, thank you so much for bringing back memories.

[@MrCaZzzle]

WHat a great time to be alive then, glad I've played most of them and so much great games in such a short time.

[@tttc]

Thank you for including Myth 1 & 2!

[@ChristianRamses]

I´m 50 years old, and I still do gaming PCs because of that era. This video made my insides go warm again.

[@Danusko]

Awesome video, full of good memories!

[@discinfiltrator_games]

This is my favourite era of PC gaming. What a time!

[@SacilvioSantos]

Thanks for your videos, the 90's brought us a lot of PC classics, too bad there are not many content covering some of these gems. I loved yours covering DOS games, keep it up!

[@jonathangillies6531]

This list hit me in all the nostalgias

[@mesicek7]

Most of these games are considered an all time greats

[@sencadas32]

I loved these games! It even made me want to play them. Thanks!

[@defiraphi]

Golden era of video games were 1995-2005 the "real" revolution . So many great games shown in this video - Total Annihilation one of the best RTS ever . - MDK excellent third person shooter with funny moments . - Unreal & Unreal Tournament thousands hours of playing it still today without being bored of it and is on my top 5 games . - Half-Life great lore and another of my top 5 games . - Tomb Raider 2 & 3 excellent . - Resident Evil 2 wow took me so long time to finish the game . - Carmageddon 2 was okayish but slow paced compared to the first one . - Shadow Man an interesting game with a great message one of my top 10 games . - Sin one of the hidden gems as fps . - Quake 2 great game sadly the final boss was too easy to kill .. - Driver the "Real" first 3D open openworld gta-like . - Turok yeah excellent . - Star Wars : Dark Forces 2 another one of my top 10 games . Gosh i feel old 😥 lol

[@TheDutchGhost]

I think a lot of us feel old because we were gamers during this period and realize know that it is almost twenty years later.

[@metalmajesty]

1993 - 2005

[@DarthPferd]

I would say from Nes to PS2 times

[@TheDutchGhost]

@@DarthPferd Well there are a couple of PS3/Xbox 360 era games that I still like but they were on the PC. Fallout New Vegas for example. But for the rest I also feel that the golden age of gaming came to end in the PS2 era.

[@TheDutchGhost]

@@metalmajesty I might even throw in the Amiga era, and there were also some decent games on the C64, ZX Spectrum, and MSX2 (really hate that we in the West missed out on the X68000) I would perhaps extend the period to 2007 with some after 'spasms' to 2010.

[@RetroGamingNook]

Right on! I was all about the PC these years with my VooDoo 1 & 2 cards. Hopefully more and more of these show up on GOG… though quite a few already do.

[@duchovicius5520]

Descent 3, System Shock 2, Heretic 2, StarCraft 2 Brood War, NFS3... I miss these times so bad.

[@eduardosoaresdelima892]

Railroad Tycom 2 ....Nostalgic ... Thanks bro, for reactivating good memories in my mind. What a good time man.

[@digimaks]

Yeah good game! Replayed entire game last month, tried to win all campaigns with gold medal. Some campaigns have unrealistic goals.

[@RetroGamingRevival-ry7wu]

Awesome List

[@o0L4nc3r0o]

MDK!!! Back in the 90's, I got that game for free with our Packard Bell Desktop (Windows 95), and I still have it. :) I remember the struggle. You had very long levels to play, without any checkpoints or places to save the game. You had the finish that entire level before you could save the game!

[@zorkmid1083]

They fixed MDK in the retail version. There, you could save the game at any point. Were you able to go all the way to the end, or did it crash?

[@o0L4nc3r0o]

@@zorkmid1083 I can´t really remember ever finishing the entire game... 🤔

[@zorkmid1083]

@@o0L4nc3r0o If you don't remember feeding the main boss weird fish-like things from the dispenser or the French music video, you probably never played it to the real end. 😁

[@Shedding]

For those of you who don't know. MDK stood for murder, death, kill

[@StrikeShamrock]

I spent many hours playing Baldur's Gate, Diablo and Planescape Torment. Great games.

[@CYON4D]

Great collection of games and video.

[@otavioraposo6163]

You did it!! Thanks!!

[@massimodambrogio]

Great list sir 👏

[@Felipecarlosrocha]

My god THANK YOU. I've been searching for Incubation time is running out for almost 20 years, played that game on a PC gaming disc and never knew the name of the game. YOU ARE THE GOATTTT !!

[@mikeeasthampton]

Rainbow Six was a great MP shooter. I loved the heart beat sensor. That was a time of LAN caffees, sitting next to guys that you shoot. Will never come back ;)

[@alessandrocossu1466]

HERETIC 2 MY MAN THANK YOU I WAS LOOKING FOR THE NAME A LONG TIMEEE. I KEPT REMEMBERING THE VISUALS BUT NOT THE NAME. THANK YOU! ❤❤❤❤

[@jansyrovatka2579]

super list, thanks

[@fernandosantosii5276]

Interesting how some games on this list created trends that last until today. I didn't play them all on the list but the one that most sparked nostalgia in me was Tomb Rider 3.

[@3dfxvoodoocards6]

Nice video, like!

[@RetroUwU]

I need more for this serie ♥️

[@librasplendora1849]

Thank you for the video. o7

[@tharminekhan7533]

We really blessed years with amazing games. Now I remember why I gave up watching television for playing on my computer every evening lol

[@TheDutchGhost]

I still did watch some television but playing games on the PC like Half Life, Homeworld, Fallout, Jedi Knight etc was a lot more interesting in general.

[@brettsymons604]

Planescape: Torment, System Shock 2, Total Annihilation, Fallout 1/2.... some of my favourite games, great to see them but hard to see what made them stand out in just 30 seconds of clips.

[@rarog1605]

KKND and KKND 2 are the awesomiest games! I walkedthrough KKND 2 several times in 1999, 2000... and 2012. And KKND 2 is almost well balanced. Its atmosphere is splendid. No lags, fine graphics. And its music that I listen till now.

[@ravingcuriosity6345]

Im always glad and surprised when people include Fallout 1 and 2, and Xcom Apocalypse to those lists, but I was really surprised seeing one of my favorite games ever enter the list: Warhammer Dark Omen. Unit this day I wish they would have made more of this game =\

[@besmart9624]

Call this video as ultimate guide to great pc games!

[@erostivizeraofc]

Parabéns mannn!

[@votmolotok]

Супер подборка, спасибо 😊

[@samanthamackie1892]

Amazing 3 years of games

[@unemaindupeuple]

Il y a du lourd, du très très lourd : j'ai passé de nombreuses heures sur beaucoup comme Darkstone, Command & conquer, Diablo, Dungeon Keeper 2, FF VII, Heroes III, KKND, Myth, Caesar III, Settlers II, Quake III, Theme Hospital... ahhhh que du bon.

[@stormykeep9213]

The greatest era of PC gaming, IMHO....

[@VoxAcies]

This was a revolutionary time for video games, pretty much everything on the list is a banger. Of course there are exceptions, but imo, gaming peaked in late 90s.

[@Prixmax]

gracias lo vi entero, muchos no los conocía pero muchos otros si fue hermoso.

[@WCIIIReiniger]

That horn at the start gave me immediate nostalgia flashback. Time to play the definitive edition of age of empires once more

[@jefreymikkelson5293]

My best friend's dad worked for a PC repair business and was a huge gamer. I was quite young, but I remember watching him play many of these games and thinking how unusual it was for dads to play video games -- dude was probably only 33 at the time, haha.

[@jayhool5482]

Awesome selection 🤌🏻 this time period had so many unique and great games ❤️

[@tomaszstefaniuk9449]

So many memries! 😊 Thnx

[@mihimiho2515]

👍for helping me find oustcast, i was going mad because the name was on the tip of my tung but for the live of me i couldnt recall it. Thanks man 😊. I was like 3626.

[@jibberjabber6919]

Silver will always stay with me. That game was Epic, the combat, the story the soundtrack was all good!

[@Bijuklich]

good list :) played pretty much all of that, still playing some of them today

[@pandacongolais]

Ah, here we are, those I missed in the previous video because I didn't look the title close enough ! The good old days ...

[@tayljordan]

What I think about when watching this is how much the games changed within such a short span of time. We went from Dungeons of Daggarth to Half Life in 15 years.

[@Vaness-]

Командос первую до сих пор играю, пытаюсь пройти. А нфс хот порсьют 3, проходил в своё время очень много раз, одна из любимых игр была

[@FieldMarshall3]

1995-2005 was the best decade for gaming. So many 10/10 games.

[@arammstein]

Thanks your Man °^°

[@oldschooldriver]

Cool times! I still play NFS 3.

[@MusaFinderi]

FreeSpace 2, Myth, Quake II & III Arena and Half-Life some all time favs on any platform or era

[@video_ouija7114]

So many interesting things to check out

[@Mahem3000]

My childhood is here! Tomb Raider, Carmageddon 2, Rayman 2, Meier’s Alpha Centauri, Monkey Island, Unreal, Quake, Driver, Starcraft, Soul Reaver, Turok… all good memories

[@corkoran]

Carmageddon 2, Little big Adventure 2 (you putted twinsen) and mainly Drakan are my favorites games EVER !!

[@reloadingdontshoot1]

I continue to play Baldurs Gate 1 and 2 to this day, probably one of my favourite/best RPG's ever made

[@divina.glitch]

All my Life looking for "Sanitarium" Thank you!!! :D

[@blackspiders741]

Tiberian sun, Heroes 3 and Warzone 2100 are favorites games, I still play them.

[@M12Howitzer]

interestingly i was expecting Little Big Adventure 2 (that you have placed under T for "Twinsen's Odyssey") since on my diskettes the exe was named lba2.exe and I recall large letters Little Big Adventure 2 on intro screen... after some googling I've found both the orginal artwork for European release (without the subname "Twinsen Odyssey" on it) and that it's remake has been scheduled for release on Steam in 2024... cool ) this makes this video already very useful! thx

[@nobua3562]

Now that I look at it, there are a lot of interesting games. I didn't think much of them when I was a kid.

[@rik6725]

Seems like yesterday; great times!

[@toy924x4]

Year 2000 sophomore year drafting and tech class we had all the computers on a LAN party and played Unreal Tournament almost daily. Good times that won't be replicated

[@josephvanwyk2088]

Soooooooooooooooooooooo many favourites listed here. ..............1997 - 2005 was truly the golden age for pc games.

[@benjaminmuller9473]

Xcom Apocalypse has to be the one i had so much time figuring out. Back when i only had cd and no manual. Haha good times

[@0Akeldama0]

diablo and starcraft with a little age of empires. So good

[@parkkw2468]

11분24초에서 가슴이 웅장해지네요.

[@YouAreAllBrainDead]

do this kind of video for every year

[@GabBandi]

A legjobb időszak!

[@tomkro9704]

These were actually the golden times 🤗

[@MrZillas]

Back in the 90s each day had 57 hours and we wasted daily 18 hours with playing. We did not have to work, there was always food and we did not have to worry anything. And sometimes we had no school and 6 hours daily more.

[@amg_gaming]

🤔... De aquella época me quedo con: 1-Quake 3 Arena 2-Roller Coaster Tycoon 3-Viper Racing ... Jugué aprox. al 75% de los títulos que aparecen... 😅👹👍 Buen video! Un Saludo❗

[@MacKlaus71]

Many of they still a great games today too.

[@regnar3712]

Homeworld and Age of Wonders one of the best soundtracks

[@rarog1605]

Also Pharaon, Rollercoaster tycoon, Sim City 3000, Warhammer Dark omen, NFS 3 - the games that are worthy spending many hours by them.

[@marimar91]

MDK was my favorite 😭

[@Sjores87]

I can honestly say that I've played at least 20 of these games!

[@MartinSofasport]

Good Video.. i remember quitting my job only to play Half-Life. LoL

[@BitchinVR6]

Lmao the Predator in AVP was so frikkin overpowered we sometimes had to ban it from our LAN parties 😂

[@MrZillas]

Actually not. His red laser always showed where he was, even cloaked. Same with the Alien: The Alien can spot the aura of everything, so it saw the Predator cloaked in each situation.

[@02ujtb00626]

Quake 3 arena and Command and Conquer Tiberian sun were the BEST!! Tiberian sun: Firestorm was amazing too, you could make custom maps.

[@funcool71]

9:54 my favorite game! This is a game!

[@nicolasc7063]

Age of Empire II the age of King the memories with de Shelby Cobra...

[@eumiagui]

O Game 54 OutLaws Merece um Remake..!! 😎👍👍👏👏👏

[@nometricnometric]

Still playing heroes 3 😊

[@bdleo300]

Golden Age of Gaming

[@LoicGuetat]

Nice list. Must include Hidden and Dangerous!

[@Funfan1992]

9:51 this game brings back memories

[@nambr9]

Outcast: Second Contact is a GREAT remastered version of the original game

[@WidescreenGamer]

Nice games:).....miss that time😢

[@MrCooper83]

God I used to play with many of these games. I remember I sent hours playing NFS Hot Pursuit with my sister (split screen) on a 17" display :)

[@Zolega89]

Joseph dug up my childhood

[@majorpayne0195]

Reason why I have a retro PC WIn98 and WinXP to play older games. Yeah it is possible to play them on modern machines but I like to play them on my actual Win98 or WinXP PC.

[@kennethblack6237]

I am glad Warzone2100 was there. Also i forgot about Populous!

[@SyncopaticSimon]

Heretic II. I remember enjoying that game a lot !

[@Mr.Ditkovich.]

What's the best adventure game (not action-adventure) of all time? I played The Secret of Monkey Island, Grim Fandango, The Road to El Dorado, and a few more when I was a kid, but I don't remember ever finishing them.

[@replynotificationsdisabled]

Darkstone FTW!
