What's the oldest game you still play on a regular basis?

The thing I love about PC games is just how backwards compatible they are. Even if it means that a community has come together to make the game still playable when the developer has ceased all support.

Maybe it's my age, but I seem to prefer older games. Right now I'm most playing Age of Conan - released 2008, Supreme Commander - released 2007 and Rome: Total War - released 2004!

I have semi-recently got TIE Fighter working on Windows 11. That was released, originally on DOS in 1994! I bet some of the people here are younger than that.

I still play Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth. Have you heard of it?
 
I have played many games over the years but most of them I don't play anymore. When thinking back to all the games I have played and which ones are the oldest, I would have to say that Roblox is the oldest game that I still play to this day on a regular basis.
 
I still find myself going back and playing the older Pokemon games like Blue and Crystal, which Blue came out in 1998 in the states and Crystal came out in 2001. I also enjoy playing the old school Sonic games for the Mega Drive that came out in the early 90's, but I mainly play retro games anyways lol.
 
PES Football Game on my PlayStation 2 is still my favourite. My fiance has tried to talk me out of it, but I wasn't letting that happen that time as well. I enjoy playing the game especially when my kid brother visits me at my place.
