Ultima Online is such a great game that it continues to be played today, even with the limitations of its engine; the non-online Ultima games are still worth playing through if you can get used to the archaic quirks of DOS, even Akalabeth. It should be noted however, “worth playing” does not necessarily mean “worth beating.”
Someone named Diz made a modern soundtrack for Ultima Online, aptly titled Recall, to improve upon its aging MIDI tracks. In my judgement, Diz has succeeded brilliantly. All the tracks in this episode are freely available for download on Diz’s website.
A few tunes from videogames this time, featuring Doritos Promo SNES Game, WTF. Most of these are essential must-play games. If you can guess the ones that aren’t, post them, you might win a prize!
