Sometimes you just need to sit down, slide a floppy into your A: drive, and enjoy gaming retro style. We know this all too well! That's why we have a list of the best and brightest from days long gone. These are some of our favorite games of all time, and we're sure that you'll love them as much as we do, if not more. Welcome to Boot Disk, and enjoy the retro ride!

There's always somewhere new to go in any genre. This is not so much wistful thinking as it is hard fact, since you can combine genres and fiddle with them to create entirely new ones. When one mixes fantasy RPGs, real-time strategy, and world simulation, something beautiful happens, and its name is Majesty. While the second one was released recently, the first still deserve attention, thanks to some extra features not included in the sequel and the fact that it is just so good. After all, it's hard to pull off such a wild genre mix like this, but Majesty makes it look easy.

Note: All of the versions linked in this article are Majesty Gold, which includes the expansion pack as well as the original game.
