Hi all, I just want to kinda pick this forums collective mind here and ask what classic games should I be looking out for.
I'm testing games out on my IBM PCjr and I've found a few great games so far that I just think are so cool, the most notable of which would be "Empire : Wargame Of The Century".
So far the games I have gotten to run perfectly on the system are:
Empire : Wargame Of The Century
Roadwar 2000
Roadwar Europa
The ChessMaster 2000
Chess '88
Planetfall
Stationfall
Zork 1-3
Epidemic!
Technically I have gotten Frogger, Defender and Lode Runner to run but they are much too fast to play even though the PCjr only runs at 4mhz.
So I'm just looking for other great games that may run on my lowly PCjr, as you may or may not know the PCjr has a different graphics and sound chip set than the standard IBM which makes it not compatible with quite a lot of IBM software. So in order to find out whether or not it will run on this machine I am using my 96 Packard Bell Platinum 55 to write the games to 5.25" disk and then test them one by one on my PCjr.
So as you can see it's quite tedious and I'd appreciate any help recommending games to get. 😜
