Well, Wasteland is the great-grandaddy of Fallout. I played it on an old apple. It had RGB graphics, but was very well written and revolutionary in computer games at the time.

Here my favorites, Old and new

New: 1. Baldurs Gate 2 (Of course!)
2. Fallout 2
3. Planescape
4. Baldurs Gate 1
5. Fallout 1 (Black Isle kicks ass dont they? =))
6. Ultima 9 (If you can get it to work)

Old: 1. Ultima 5
2. Wasteland
3. Ultima 7
4. The Bards Tale 1
5. Dark Sun 2
6. Secrets of the Silver Blade (Old D&D game, probably on one of those classic Forgotten realm sets)

There also was an ANCIENT D&D game that was all text, if anyone knows the name, please let me know..Your guy was a letter...F for Fighter, M for Mage etc...Anyway you moved around this dungeon with I's and Dashes for walls. Random Enemies (Letters) Would pop up to fight. It was kick ass for the time. Looked kinda like this:
