Ah, found a free copy of one of those little old artillery duels:  TankGame.  Google for it and enjoy dueling simplicity.

Nintendo 8bit had an f117 game I had only played once or twice at a friends house as a kid, I remember you had to laser designate targets, and fly around radars, Awsome graphics(lol) and it was just the best thing ever to me then.
Wonder who made that game?

P.T.O. II by Koei
Day of Defeat (not source)

I'd have a lot more, but the game won't run under XP.  They'd probably explode in Vista  :lol

Old Games that still play well today:

Empire
Harpoon Classic (had the original on the 286 which barely ran on such a "weak" machine)


Duke Nukem and even DOOM1&2 are still good for a round or two if you ignore the graphics. Both still have their special atmosphere

Somewhat old games

Fallout 1&2
Deus Ex
Battlezone (the best raw FPS/RTS combo ever made, brilliant but too involved for the console crowd)
Unreal Tournament (easy to network on a home lan for H2H with a range of machine specs)
Half Life

Eventually I'm going to get a Commodore 64 emulator & get some of those old games. 

Impossible Mission (AAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!)
MIST (one of those word games)

Plus... I'd like to get one of those little flatbed coin operated games w/the built in seat (because I'm too lazy to stand for a video game anymore) which has Qix programmed into it.
