Favorite "Old-school" games

What was the one called where you had a dial and would shoot down along the walls of different geometric shapes at oncoming "aliens?", maybe I'm not explaining it well.

That would be "Tempest". Like Battlezone, it made good use of vector graphics:

Solstice & Mighty Bomb Jack

Solstice and Mighty Bomb Jack, both mastered quite a few years ago, are my all time favorites. These "old school" games remain a daunting challenge today.
 
Just curious as to other people's favorite old-school games where.

For me, I would have to say Megaman 2 and Bomberman are among my favorites.

Yeah I loved Bomberman too! DAP
 
The original zelda and mario. But there are so many good old games that i could go on forever.
 
Galaga, Time Pilot, Frogger, Asteroids, Scramble, Rally X, Defender, Xevious etc

love them all so much I bought me an arcade unit last year...with 40 original games from the early-mid 80's.

But, my favorite of all was, and remains, Pinball Machines...
