There are like old games from Namco (Galaga, DigDug, Tower OF Durga)

Also old CapCom Games (But I don't know them... someone told me about them)

I was wanting to find Qbert but apparently it's not on Steam... or The old Pokemon GameBoy games but they aren't on here either...

What are some old ones that I could find and play? I guess they are super old but put on steam anyway or something... Can you tell me some more?

+IF they have a lot of story it's a bonus (I know these games usually don't have a ton of story)

System shock and thief (1 and 2). Those were the late 90s game. And very immersive for the time.

I really don't recommend it, its one of the few steam games I've refunded. Its a really, really bad port. I played the game bunches as a kid on sega/snes

Obviously theres a lot of sega gen games on steam as part of the master system. https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/10143/SEGA_Mega_Drive_and_Genesis_Classics/

I just recommend wait for the remake of system shock. Play thief instead

Remastered by Transport Tycoon Deluxe enthusiasts and very well worth paying for, but, you won't have to.

They made a new one released in 2004 that is also on sale here on Steam,
but this game is in accordance with what you asked for :)

Pirates! Gold is a remake of a game made in the 1980s and was released in 1993. Good classic music.
This game is perfect for you if you want that early 90's good feeling.
Runs perfectly. Just click install and jump right in.

I prefer the 2004 edition though. And my highest gaming wish is that Sid Meier and Firaxis makes another Pirates game for PlayStation 5, Xbox and PC.

Unfortunately that won't happen anytime soon since Civilization 5 and Civilizatin 6 is still selling like hot cakes. And Firaxis have confirmed that they are working on Civilization 7.
But we can always hope for a new Pirates!
