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!

We've covered several seminal and highly influential RPGs before here on Boot Disk, but there's on in particular that is still missing. While we've talked about its sequel at quite some length, it serves to play the original game, both because it has a more coherent story and because it was the developer's first real game. Baldur's Gate has spawned a successful franchise that spans two series and even has spiritual sequel in Dragon Age, but we've yet to touch upon the game that started it all. It's far easier to find now that GoG.com has released it during their relaunch, and anybody who enjoys RPGs would be doing a disservice to themselves if they missed out on this classic.
