As 2014 Closes, DOS Nostalgia Boots Up Two Hours Of PC Games From 20 Years Ago
The end of the year typically brings countless looks back at the previous year. We talk about the best games, hot trends, and favorite moments from the past 12 months. For DOS Nostalgia, a glance into history shoots a little farther.
For the past three years, Anatoly of DOS Nostalgia has compiled video of games from two decades prior. We suspect that this year’s two-hour trip down memory lane might make some of you feel old.
Highlights from 1994 include Bethesda's The Elder Scrolls: Arena, Blizzard’s Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, MicroProse’s X-COM: UFO Defense, Origin’s Wing Commander III, and LucasArts’ Star Wars: TIE Fighter. If you’re feeling nostalgic, you can find a number of these titles for purchase, with some even available for free (legally).
Happy new year!
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
