  4. my earliest gaming memories involve wasting hundreds/thousands of demons in DOOM I&II while listening to NIN's downward spiral and broken ep, those albums seemed perfect for wading through hell. or the original gran turismo, played a lot of that with my father. my first console was a psx, and the first psx game i completed was spyro the dragon.

  6. Pretty much just Diablo 2. When you find a video game you enjoy and can make real money from, it's hard not to play lol

    Shit, the game is almost as old as me, and there are still items selling for $500+ in real cash.

  7. AoE 2 was amazing when it first came out.
    I remember being blown away by what could be done in that game. It was "so much" for that time :smoke:

  9. Anyone remember the hockey game, Blades of Steel?
    Funny that when you harrassed an opponent too much it would switch to a fight between the two combatants with the loser going to the penalty box. :)

  12. Even though in "Real life" I'm not a violent person, I always liked violent games as long as the game play was good. Was never a big console guy (game controller for a FPS game, no thanks). That said...

    System shock
    Half-Life (inc. CS beta and Team fortress)
    Deus ex
    King-pin
    Doom
    RCW
    Mechwarrior
    Combat flight simulator
    Unreal tournament
    Postal
    Serious Sam

  16. Games I used to play on my old 286 PC in the 80’s that had a 40mb hard drive and 4mb RAM -

    Duke Nukem
    JetPac
    Commander Keen series
    Contra!
    Zaxxon

    Of course there’s so many more - but let’s talk PC game developers from the 80’s!

    Apogee! ( Duke Nukem 3D, Rise of the Triad, Blake Stone, Crystal Caves, Wolf 3D et al)

    ID Software - Doom, Quake, Heretic and Hexen, of course the very best was “Return to Castle Wolfenstein” lol

    Epic Megagames (or was that early 90’s? Still - Jazz Jackrabbit, Jill of the Jungle,

    So more 90’s - and my kids loved these!! Humongous Entertainment - remember Freddi Fish and the Putt-Putt series?

    So many.
