The way the human brain stores memories for 30 years is crazy. I remember all of this.
Yeah, I can see my old boxy PC in the corner of my familieās dining room, the kitchen table chair we would use, my sister and I huddled around it. We would play Doom and Scorched Earth
Me too. Doom and Quake are seared into my brain forever.
Oh man scorched earth so good
Yeah, its a shame that it doesnt play well on almost anything anymore. Even on something like DosBox, computers are way too fast now for the inputs to work correctly.
Worms is an alternative, but not a great one.
Was Doom before or after Wolfenstein?
After
Thanks. I played that a little, but didnāt love it, so thatās probably why I never got into Doom.
The original wolfenstein was an apple ii game. It was out before pcs were a thing.
Right. The Wolfenstein we all think of us when we say Wolfenstein is actually Wolfenstein 3D.
Doom had absolutely brilliant sound design.
Which carried over into the reboot. The music was the best part of that game
I was just reminiscing with my old childhood friend about this. We used to have our modems call each other to play death matches. My favorite kill was when I paused the game and said I needed a restroom break (either player could pause and unpause). Knowing he would play dirty and unpause, I also went to a dark corner to hide. He knew that I knew he would play dirty so he also knew where Iād be hiding. Knowing that he would know that I would know heād play dirty, I went to that spot and waited for him. Sure enough, he unpaused and ran straight to my hiding spot and got blasted with a rocket.
Nice. The old āthey know that I know that they knowā gambit is a classic. I played it many times in Doom, Quake, and poker.

Uh, Chris thatās how quoting someone works. You donāt have to make your entire thesis papers entirely your own words. You can say Person A found that and then quote what that person said.
You get in trouble when you donāt say āPerson A found thatā
Isnāt this guy now in charge of a university?
Extra mild, now with 50 percent more water
Is it a stereotype that Australian food is bland? Iāve only ever heard that about the UK.
