With a bit of luck you might really put some zest into your local KFC (or other FFJ* of your choice) server' lives as their overlord screens unaccountably go berserk. * FFJ = Fast Food Joint, or Face Full of Junk. ;) |

| 1476812 | 2021-04-27 21:45:00 | dammit. Now I want to play Doom again. Doom was the game that really taxed my 1st 2 PC's (and Quake, Duke). I played Doom in B&W , I coulnt afford a fancy colour monitor . it started the never ending updgrade cycle , my 286 just couldnt cope :-) |

| 1476813 | 2021-04-28 01:49:00 | Yea Doom was a fantastic game - the first real fps I played from memory - they were pretty much just "platform" shooters before that. John Carmack really took gaming ahead back then |

John Carmack really took gaming ahead back then Dont forget Wolfenstein 3D (before Doom), but was really only 2D :) Catacomb 3-D , and Hovertank before that . Ive never heard of Hovertank , but one of the baddies looks familiar en.wikipedia.org With the old 'shareware' software sales model , I wonder how they made any money. Especially considering how common software piracy on PC games was back then. |

I was so impressed with Doom, and so relieved to finally break free from the 2D scrolling games that I made a point to buy the full versions from their shareware stuff, even if I had obtained it by other means prior to purchase. My hardware could handle the original doom, but I'm now about 2 iterations behind the current release due to my old processor simply not being up to it, and my pockets being too tight to willingly make the upgrade. |
