Steam PC games that are absolute classics. - FaTMaNLeo - 01-02-2013 09:49 PM

I was wondering what people consider to be classic games, you know the type where you spent hours on and when you're parents told you to get off the console/PC you would argue that it had only been a few minutes. If you're anything like me the first thing that springs to your mind is the old school consoles like N64. However since I don't get as much time to go up to the attic and set up my old consoles I have become dependent on my PC and steam for gaming. So I was wondering what you guys consider the absolute classics on steam ?

Apart from Half Life, Duke Nukem, Doom and Wolfenstein Because they are obviously awesome.

I was gonna say Half Life (though I don't really spend much time with it myself) but since that is already out of the question...

Penumbra Trilogy, Cave Story +, Alan Wake, DayZ (ARMA II), Cthulhu Saves the World, Portal, Left 4 Dead and Dead Island.

Those are my personal "classics" whether someone agrees or not with them being actually classic. Do note that I also mean the games' sequels when I only mention a first part. Take your pick Tongue

Just a heads up, Cthulhu Saves the World is nothing like Call of Cthulhu. It's a 16-bit RPG.

The Penumbra Trilogy is more like the Call of Cthulhu game if you're into those kind of games.

I have been playing some of the games you suggested they are actually very good! Big Grin

A friend brought it for me, but I haven't installed it yet. So, I can if you like.

Mass Distraction, I can't find you, add me (Arjahn on steam) and look for the guy whose avatar is a chicken with an M4 and sunglasses.

Yeah, I don't think you can have spaces on Steam. That's how it was for me anyways.

You sort of can, when I searched for "Mass Distraction" the only guy who showed up was this chap

And upon further questioning he was really confused and hurt my feelings :c

I'm pretty sure the only thing you can do is change your display name. Not the ID.
