Games that have aged well

I actually enjoyed Nox, back in the day, more than I did Diablo 2.

Yeah, I played Nox about a month ago, and in my opinion, much better game than Diablo 2. A real Westwood classic. Pity that it got overshadowed by Diablo 2.

If you're going to smack Planescape Torment in there, how about Baldur's Gate II? Looks and plays even better if you ask me.
Good call on DK II James. I would have threatened to fire him too.

Yeah, The story was really good, had some really well written comedy bits. What I remember stuck me most about it was how when you played a different class you would start somewhere else. Like if you played Warrior you start in one area and if you played wizard you start in a completely different area. Blew my mind back in the day.

/Sees its only $9.99 on GoG

I have the cd's in our store room at home but for some reason it hangs up the computer when I quit the game, I wonder if there is a patch somewhere to stop that. I really should look next time I want to play it.
Also how the wizard and warrior were against each other in the story, either one you chose you fought the other one. During Diablo 2 rule there was also Dungeon Siege which was also pretty good, I actually finished that compared to the second one where I got bored.

I never got into dungeon siege, preferred IceWind Dale I & II, Bulder's Gate. Back then my machine couldn't handle "high-end" graphics.

Do I really look that butch in my author photo?

And what is that point?

I'm sure he has it, somewhere at the tip of his fingertips.

I would more concerned that he thought Tarryn was a dude's name. I didn't know you could click on the little profile pic and go to a magic bio page.

Your answer is sitting right in the article.

Planescape: Torment was built on the Infinity Engine – the same engine that powered Baldur’s Gate the previous year – but its baroque / gothic / steampunk aesthetic is… wait for it… infinitely better than the drab medieval stylings of the other.

I disagree, I tried replaying D2 before D3 launched and pretty much hated it for the word go.

Same here - the graphics are just too dated on modern hardware - and I hated the pointless 'stamina' requirement
