Default what older video games do you still enjoy playing?
I still get a profound sense of enjoyment when I start up Freespace 2 on the PC.

I've also re-installed Oblivion
never gets old.

I've got a little vintage video gameroom in one room of my house.

There's Sea Wolf, Night Driver, Mata Hari pinball, Golden Tee '99, Asteroids, and a multi-game cocktail table version with about 30 games.

Galaga is awesome. I can't tell you how many quarters I spent on that.

Ms. Pac Man is my other fave.

I hate pacman... you can't win. You just keep playing until you die.
basically the same reason I hate Tetris.

Depends on what you mean by older, the only older games I still enjoy are any one of the GTA games.

Funny, the other night I stayed up until 6am playing 'DOOM'. I have both the new games for Xbox but find myself playing the original versions included as bonus material most often.

Dragster on the Atari 2600.

If you like old coin-op games check out M.A.M.E. for your PC.

I haven't seen one in years but if I ran across a Spy Hunter I'd play the poo out of it. You'd think PS or Xbox would have that available to DL.

I like ALL them old Raster graphics games. Too many too list. Those early voice synthesis-chipped games like Astro Blaster, Gorf, Bosconian, Berzerk and Wizard of Wor are bomb, too!

I'll play a few old Nintendo games on an online emulator at work.

Double Dribble
TechmoBowl
North vs South
Knight Rider
Super Mario

And maybe a few others.

I re-installed oblivion last year too, don't know why but for some reason I just like to play through it every now and then.
