As we know the library of PC games is vast and a great many of our favourites are old and that often brings issues when running on modern hardware and software. For this thread we should post old PC games (preferably good ones) that just work on modern systems - nothing needs to be done with them beyond isntalling the game and (optionally) any official patches.
Fucking about with the registry, getting api wrappes, tweaking config files to unlock resolutions etc etc do not count - the game needs to be about as plu-and-play as PC games can be.
Webm related - game released in 2001 and works perfectly (and natively supports widescreen resolutions no less).
Another, for content. Stunt GP works perfectly out of the box as long as you use the default installation path.

Its been years since i've played the level but iirc it revolves around planting seeds in the past and travelling to the future to climb up the (now grown) tree.

Gunmetal works perfectly on PC. Fucking awesome game too for its time, still holds up.
As much as people may dislike it, Minecraft is pretty much plug and play on PC, regardless if you purchased or pirated it.
