The sheer amount of games available today probably makes it hard to get into many of the older gems. Hell, even I have a 30 year backlog.

I think everyone should explore:

The Secret of Monkey Island (1, 2 and return)
Loom
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
Street Rod
Prince of Persia
The Incredible Machine
Pokémon yellow/red/blue
Chrono Trigger
Worms
Mega Man II
TMNT: Turtles in Time
Diablo II
Burnout 3/legends/takedown
Skyrim

There are so many 'Prince of Persia' games that you need to add a year to be more specific.

So they finally made a sequel?

I'm thinking about the 1989 version. There's many ports, but DOS/Amiga/Macintosh are all good. Even the C64 port is great.
