Seriously...i have xbox one, ps4, PC, Nintendo Wii-U and a whole bunch of super duper games with millions of polygons but..nothing can stop this weird feeling in my stomach when i remember seeing and playing this games for the first time...BRING BACK MY YOUTH. Thanks a lot DOS Nostalgia

[LGR]

The year I was introduced to PC gaming, ahh. So many happy memories here, including my first game: Crystal Caves!

[davejones]

I just came across this channel because of my love for the old DOS games. I've played a lot of the games you posted here but I would like to mention a few more that were some of my favorites. Jazz the Jackrabbit, Jill of the Jungle, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, Llamatron, and don't forget about Full Throttle, Under A Killing Moon, Rex Nebular and Dark Seed. I am now setting up a new (OLD) system, and will be revisiting these old DOS games again.

[WreckedEm]

These videos are great, I get to relive my childhood in 100 5 second clips at a time.
2021 and I still love them.

[channelkerr]

thanks man, these compilations are priceless for getting a sampler of games from that era/for systems of that era. keep it up!

[eridahh]

Commnder Keen soo many happy childhood memorys : )

[cmelft]

I was born in 87 and these games brought back some lost memories of playing these at my relatives house as a young kid. probably didnt know what i was doing back then anyway.

Great vid as always!! thumbs up

[derpatrizier]

What a great collection! But what I enjoyed most, that you show different aspects of the game. Thank you for your effort

[ripoutyourprejudice]

I think we live in the best era to be playing old dos games :D.

[TheDaggwood]

I remember deciphering the alien language in Commander Keen and feeling so proud.

[Datschischwitzkopf]

Paint, frogger and commander keen were my best friends back then 🥲 god sometimes I miss those days....

[Darthhelmet]

It's always amazing to me to see the vast difference in graphic quality and style. Even over the course of a year for the same company. Good work on the video!

[GameplayandTalk]

Hell yeah! It's so awesome to see another one of these DOS compilations.

[dbix]

Can't believe I watched this entire video. Very good, time well spent.

[AlyxxTheRat]

I love that parody of the Accolade logo. That logo was on so many games I grew up with.

[offperception]

Great video, Anatoly. I see a lot of effort went into this. Thank you!

[vecchiosaggio]

Great video! And thank you for doing it with the correct aspect ratio! Too many people don't take that into consideration when they make dos games videos.

[lucius]

Wing Commander. Fond memories. The sound and graphics was groundbreaking back then.

[spearPYN]

The pixel art in the 16 bit era (Amiga, Sega MD, MS-DOS) was terrific.

[TheBatrahian]

Thanks of much for the video, one of my favourite series on youtube.
