Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Vagrant Story for PS1 is a fantastic game that will consume weeks of your time, and it's an 80MB iso. You can even use pSX to play the image in the compressed CDZ format, which will shave off more space.

You could also uninstall a game when you finish playing it...

Return to Castle Wolfenstien? Copyright date on the back of my game case is 2001. I like that game, and it must not take up a lot of drive space at all.

Turok 1 and 2 for PC are also great games. I think the games have a "console feel" to them, but being FPS's they play nice with a keyboard and mouse too. I have copies of both games, if you want I could hook you up.

The original Enemy Territory, that sounds perfect.

You like RTS games, so play the king of them all: Total Annihilation. It with both two expansions weighs in at like 200 megs.

Also I second the Dosbox suggestions. What I ran this weekend at Momocon was:
Prince of Persia 1&2
Duke Nukem 1&2
Commander Keen 1-dreams
Lemmings
Jazz Jackrabbit 1&2
Raptor
Oregon Trail v1.1&v1.4
Learning Company games - maybe you dont want these but I still get a kick out of Treasure Mountain every once and a while.
Lode Runner

Other favorites using DOSbox:
Daggerfall - the best Elder Scrolls title
Battlespire - multiplayer Elder Scrolls...
Mech Warrior 2

Really? (Sarcasm)

What I meant was, I'd prefer to play them on the console but they play alright on the PC.
