![50 Dos Games in 10 minutes [1988-1997]](/img/1.gif)
MS-DOS games were the first video games/PC games I played before. But the very first video games/PC games I ever played were educational PC games, and I use to play them on an old PC desktop, running on Windows 95. This was more than 20 years ago. What a nostalgia that was.
The very early 90's dos games are like a giant mushroom trip. Mystic Towers, been looking for this game for 23 years.
Omg same here I just found it, i was reading your comment cause it was the first one and when i saw mystic towers its going to be the one im looking for, do you remember there was an enemy that was a woman and she would kiss or somthing dealing damage to you.
Arent all these games availabe as adandoned? Mystic Towers was great fun with the views.
Thing is the abandonware is likely episode 1 only.
whay can I fully see up the old man's arse
Me too! This game was so cool. I watched my uncle play it because we didn't have a computer yet.
There's something about dos game graphics.
They where better then most consoles that era 90s and up.
More colours 🎨
What is it?
@@ibrachaka8727 very good feelings.. n stuff so many colours
They were 2d, full of bright colours and fun as hell! I really would recover a win 95 PC to run some of these games, miss them so much 😢
I am born '90, so I'm quite young for this compilation. But there are so many pearls in there that I used to play as a child. Thank you for this!
1995 to 2000 was the glory era of scifi games.
I'm from '91, so a year younger than you, but Jazz Jackrabbit and Wacky Wheels are easily some of my most played childhood games. We had JJ on our home PC and my best friend had WW on console, I think. I also remember Aladdin and Lion King; I think we had those on my school's PC. Most of the games I played as a child came out at least a few years before I got to play them, but I guess you always had the newest ones? :D
This was the year I turned 4, and the year I became a full-time PC gamer under DOS. I didn't start school for another year and a half. I had literally all the time in the day to play my games without interruptions. I miss 1994.
I was only 10 years old and my mom only allowed me to play the computer for 1 hour per day. Nonetheless, I enjoyed every minute that I got to play these games. And nowadays I can enjoy them in total freedom.
So many great memories! And I can't believe I've actually played most of these games, I had a lot of free time back then lol
This series is incredible! Thanks for taking the time to put it together!
These games were so ambitious for their time. Huge limitations on processors, memory and disc volume back then. Yet the developers created an interesting, challenging experience with incredible stories and great game mechanics.
xcom and master of magic... i still have copies of these 2 great games. wow the memories
Dat shiver, while listening to the Jazz Jackrabbit OST ... dat times ... dat memories ... dat game quality!
Who came first?sonic it jazz jackrabbit? 😂
What a year!!!!!
Played many, heard for many, but till now didnt knew they are all published in same year.
Respect to the developers back then! wow
am with you
1994 was the year we got our first PC. I played most of these game (all Apogee shareware titels and more).
jazz jackrabbit bestttt
Took me like three days to watch this video, yet it was really fun to do so, thanks for sharing!
Cannon Fodder, Syndicate, Mechwarrior, X-Wing V Tie Fighter, Colonization, The Ultima Series, Desert Strike, Theme Park, X-Com and Terror From the Deep, Elite, Eye of the Beholder, Might and Magic & Wing Commander... lost days playing those back in the 90's. Still remember growing when the word Internet or Web hadnt even been used. 70's kid here :)
Thanks for the trip down memory lane :)
Year 2023, I still enjoy the show
that XCOM intro is AMAZING!
Mystic Towers AND Jazz Jackrabbit? This was CLEARLY the best year of DOS games.
Hocus Pocus, Jazz Jackrabbit, Doom, Mortal Kombat, Heretic... all of those games... Amazing video man...
ahhh, Hocus Pocus. I remember the video game loving younger kids in my neighborhood always wanting to come over and play, "hokey pokey"
Can't believe I'm only just *now* finding this channel. Thank you for all the hard work creating these videos! Subbed
Great video! Throughly enjoyed it. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
Wow! Thank you! Such memories! Transport Tycoon, Warcraft, Zool, I remember them all well. But what really brought a tear to my eye was seeing Commander Blood, which I remember playing for hours in the summer of 95!
Wow, memories. Traffic Department, Magic Carpet, Colonization, Transport Tycoon, Little Big Adventure... they released SO many great DOS games in 1994, and I've spent many hours of my life playing them. :-)
Dangerous Dave, Jazz Jackrabbit, Hocus Pocus, Mystic Tower...😭 Pure Nostalgia. Still I play these games, but I miss those days.
never played dos. 24 and just love these remnants of nostalgia. thank you for sharing. subscribed and will advocate
Many Many Memories from this video. Thank you for bringing to light again some old school classics!
this was epic year
Warcraft, Magic carpet, theme park, TIE Fighter, X-COM, the list goes on
I have a lot of this old games as original and stil play them.
That magic carpet game looks extremely ahead of its time.
+JgHaverty Funny that is the exact same thought that first popped up in my mind when the game came up in this video. Very impressive for its age.
+JgHaverty It was! I'd say Magic Carpet, System Shock and also probably Robinson's Requiem (open-world survival RPG) were some of the most innovative games of that era.
You should see commanche and ultima underworld.
@@soylentgreenb both Commanshe and Magic carpet used voxel graphics. That's why they look so good. It was great for making terrain.
The best RPGS I've ever played were on dos in the early 90s. There's a quality to them that was never matched.
Nostalgia hitting hard... anything from the 90s will hit me HARD.
Yep. I born in `84. For me the 90s was the golden age of the PC gaming until 2006 max.
@@negrusz DOS games had a charm modern games don't really have. Holy crap Doom was basically a killer app back then. That was an actual term real humans used back then.
good job . thank you for sharing this . i cant believe my selft letting this past my childhood. brings back memories hope you make more videos like this.
Good old times. No bills to pay, no worries, only hanging out with friends and playing games.
jazz jackrabbit, transport tycoon, warcraft, desert strike, heretic, doom 2 q_q childhood !
That's a truly dos nostalgia vid man! can't believe 22 years have passed
list of games brings back so many childhood memories
i never played beneath a steel sky until this year on dosbox... in turn it inspired me to build 3 retro boxes, and these videos are so good to help me find some new (lol) games to get back to what i missed out on. thanks!
Jazz Jackrabbit, Raptor, MK, Heretic, Doom, Micro Machines and Warcraft. Those are some great memories
Golden year of PC gaming! Every second game is a legend, every third - genre founder.
And I played almost all of them (in fact I had a CD with 200 best games of 1994, there was no way to find legal copies in ex-USSR). Thanks for the video.
My brothers and I grew up with Magic Carpet 2 for so long, it never occurred to me there was a Magic Carpet 1, nor to look it up or what it might be like. Glad I saw it here.
My entire childhood right here, big up to everyone born in '81 :)
I was 85 and played most of these games. Pretty sad how games are now. I totally forgot about Aladin and cannon fodder the memories
Born in 84 and proud of it. Year of Terminator and Ninja Turtles.
81er here. 1994 was a special year for our generation. It was like the core of 90's.
Traffic department and DreamWeb stories were great, both are pretty underrated games IMO
What a way to finish the year. You are awesome, thanks!
I am a gamer who enjoys modern games as well as the past. I still go back to the games of my youth or try out games I was interested in but never had a chance to try. Thank god for DosBox and GOG.com
This list brought back some nostalgia, the games in this list I played extensively were; Theme Park, Tie Fighter, Raptor: Call of the Shadows, The shareware episode of Jazz Jackrabbit, and King's Quest VII (got that game free with a soundcard we got i think). Awesome video.
1:23:15 Tie Fighter
2nd best intro of all time (after MechWarrior 2 of course) and best game I ever played to date. Even God lost count how many times I played it. Those enemy Tie Advanced sure knew how to wear out my mouse pads. And let's not forget constant cleaning the rubber ball mechanism inside old gen mouses.
Collector's CD-ROM edition features SVGA resolution and adds 6 new Battles (much more difficult and complex than base game) continuing the pursuit for rouge admiral Zaarin.
One in a lifetime game (maybe even once-per-civilization feat) that remains super playable today (nothing aged, on the contrary) and in the future. What a timeless masterpiece.
Ya man. I had a decent flight stick that worked awesome with Tie-Fighter! Very great game!
Little Big Adventure was my first "big" game back then. Sweet memories. Still have that pirate copy in my collection.
OMF 2097 was my life from 1995 to 2002. I can't believe how much I played this shit
Hope they make a remake
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been setting up my childhood system and have forgotten a lot of games I played. you have just reminded me of Blackthorne! Can't wait to play it again.
Thanks for the video and the channel! It's nice to see many familiar old games and to know about some cool games of which I didn't know.
"Battletech fan" youtube channel has a video on how to install Mechwarrior 2 demo using DGBL. DBGL makes things easier to configure DOSbox for games. The link to download the demo is in the description.
This is the demo that made me love Battletech universe. The world was never the same for me after that demo.
I finished Lion King MS-DOS , with Mouse and Keyboard, the Sounds and OST sounded so nice on my sound blaster pro 16, one of the first MS-DOS PC games I played on our first PC back in 1994.
What a great year! I remember playing quite a few of those games.
Great video! I wish you the best for 2015 and don't forget to keep on retrogaming!
i'll share an easter egg that i'm sure 99% of people don't know about.
if you played the omf2097 demo and maxed out your character and robot stats(you can only play the first tournament) and then transfered your save to the full game, then your name will be changed to psycho :)
i'm not sure if i should be proud of discovring that though haha
+gatomaru This is now my favorite comment
man i love omf2097 so fucking much, i have played EASILY over 1000 hours. i wish i could meet the team and convince them to remake it. sigh.
There was sort of a sequel, One Must Fall: Battlegrounds.
Now THAT'S what I could call... [puts on shades]
...DOSTalgia!
Love your channel. This was basically my childhood lol
Forget anything from the 21st Century. Now this was a year for games!
Amen! From 1992 to 1998 was a total renaissance era of innovative videogames. I feel sorry for everyone who missed out on it.
@@-Joyfull Yep!
@@-Joyfull what happen past 1998 ? AFAIK we got UT, CS, AOE2 and many other great games
@@Tigrou7777 After 1998 FPS games were not the same. They didn't have the same mechanics and interface. And thus the gameplay was totally different. Weapons which need to be manually reloaded after every few shots? Field of view camera which shifts as your altitude shifts? These features just ruined the pleasure for some gamers. And in terms of storyline, Half-Life felt like a remake of DOOM fused with Blake Stone. No more originality.
@@Tigrou7777 it's more about innovation and creativity. The 90s really invented pretty much all game types we still see to this day. Amazing decade that we won't see happen anytime soon
XCOM, Doom 2, System Shock, Beneath a Steel Sky, Jagged Alliance, Colonization, Master of Magic,Transport Tycoon, Theme Park and Little Big Adventure are simply the best in 94 on PC.
Because of this compilation I've been able to find a game from my childhood I just couldn't remember the name of. Little information about the game remained in my mind except some fogy and vague images... and when I saw it here, I just knew that was it - Ecstatica! Much appreciated.
Awesome! Aladdin, Prince of Persia, Stunts, Doom, Tyrian...long nights long playing
I came here to see my beloved games of my childhood: Jazz Jackrabbit and Transport Tycoon :D
These are better than the games today.
Totally agree With you
If only more people agreed with us. I feel sorry for the kids of today.
When I see mobile games and I see this... Mobile games are so bad. PC with DOS was the greatest console ever.
@@josepablolunasanchez1283 Yeah, I don't understand how some people see comfort and convenience in playing games on tiny touchscreens. It is extremely uncomfortable in comparison to a stationary device sitting on top of a table. Furthermore, I don't see anything new and innovative about the actual gameplay of the modern games.
@@-Joyfull The innovative is about having uncomfortable inconvenient controls to increase your level of motor skills. You need to exert micrometric control and hit one correct pixel. No more stormtrooper bad aiming at pixels. It never happened in human history.
Also, the micrometric space forces to simplify controls so the new generations do not need a keyboard layout to play like in the DOS era with Jane's Longbow Gold or Mechwarrior 2. It never happened in human history, so this is innovation. Who cares if it goes in the right direction... LOL!
I remember the first PC that I bought with my own money as a teenager, came with Jazz the Jackrabbit. I absolutely loved that game.
So do I. It was kind of the PC's answer to Sonic The Hedgehog.
I loved Jazz Jackrabbit, Hocus Pocus, Heretic and Doom II and Commander Keen :)
Good Memories of those games :)
I love this channel I recently found it can't believe I saw it earlier!!!
Thank you for this video. Good selection and quality.
So many memories...
One Must Fall... if ever there was a fighting game that deserved a reboot.
Agreed, that game was awesome, used to play it against my twin brother, many eons ago.
There was a reboot and it's terrible! A remaster would be much cooler instead
it wasnt a reboot it was online fighting game and it sucked got cancelled after first month it was outt
Retrogaming Insanity isn't that a reboot? It failed at that but still...
i guess so but it technically wasnt reboot cause it was mmo and not single player game
Lovely! Brings back so many memories. 😔
Hello Man! Great Channel! Thanks and cheers from Poland! :-)
Wow, wing commander 3 looks amazing!
Wow, so many great games and amazing memories! Playing Warcraft on the new school computers and network during EVERY break for weeks! We used to copy a lot of these games and sell them at school. Stacks and stacks of floppies!😅
I especially liked Colonization, UFO and Cannon Fodder, but I spent uncountable hours with many of these games. And also did well at school because you had plenty of time to do your homework when games were loading. 🧑🎓
DOS Rules! Great Video
Jazz the Jackrabbit was one of my faves
Lollypop had beautiful backgrounds.
Those Cannon Fodder death grunts still crack me up
Cyberia was a hell of a game! Loved it so much!
happy new year bro
Magic Carpet was way ahead of its time.
All my favorite music and games were released in 1994 and 95. Born in this year too. Best year ever.
I loved Railroad Tycoon and the original Colonization
90s is the best epoch of videogames. Thanks a lot.
Стоило только посмотреть переделку песни Шевчука (та, что про дождь в оригинале) - пришли в рекомендации подборки. Теперь есть что вспомнить. 90ые, передача "От Винта" и прочее. Эх. DOSBox пора запускать и DooMать
For me X-Com (1994) will always be my #1 game for the 90s. In those days Origin was the cutting edge for graphics. The Strike Commander, Wing Commander and Ultima series requried heavy hardware.
best 2 hours of my life
I miss this era of gaming, truly. Would love to be able to re-live it again 😞
some of these looks great :O really well done for their time
Not seen One Must Fall in about 20 years! I'd forgotten what it was even called. Reeling from the nostalgia hit here
Wouldn't be a NWC computing game without the sci-fi pocket in a fantasy world, and I love it.
omfg, Mystic Tower... i thought im the only one on this planet, who remember this game xD
😁 Another like minded here.
Transport tycoon, what a Jewel. i don't believe how old is it. no one of games cost me so much time. still playing some of it's clones.
My nostalgia makes the old DOS GAMES GRAPHICS Magnificent..
To me at least..
Ah could be the best DOS year. Played most of these. If I think of my life, my most cherished memories are the games I played as a kid. Single player and multiplayer. It's not the loves and the havings of sex. Those are cool and all but being a kid and playing your favorite game... maybe I'm autistic but that was bliss at its finest.
That Aladdin game looks great. DOS had some pretty good looking games.
What a incredible year that was. So many fantastic games. :}
Wing Commander cast! WOOOW Luke, Gandalf, Biff and Soran from ST Generetions
great vídeo & wow! theres a great quality in the games.
Man, I remember how creepy Ecstatica looked (and it still does tbh)
The jazz jackrabbit thumbnail, my childhood
damn I forgot so many games, just installing dosbox and looking forward to play the horde again :)
This is Canadian 1960s Wonderbra erasure
(thanks so much for this)
