My God!! How long was I asleep?!

For those of you bad at math, 2012 - 20 = 1992.

I wonder if the game will still give me motion sickness.

 

[sporkimus]

Not quite playable over dial-up but it's close. I'm not unhappy because if it worked better I would probably spend the rest of the day playing it (and Spear of Destiny) instead of getting the rest of my work done.

AARDWOLF!

So who wants to join me in making a FPS that has the clout and imagination that Wolf 3d had 20years ago?? Huh, whos coming with me, lets do this, Ill quit my job... tonyc79 at gmail

 

[NITROGEnarcosis]

The game that got me started on FPSs has it really been 20 years

 

[zippyzion]

Oh... I feel old.

What a great game this was. I remember it being the main reason for my start down the computer gaming path. This and Commander Keen, Crystal Caves, Duke Nukem (the platformer one). Great memories.

Happy b-day!

Wolfenstein 3D wasn't the first 3D FPS for Id. Hovertank 3D and Catacomb 3D (which I remember playing) were earlier. Wolfenstein itself is inspired by Castle Wolfenstein which I played on an Apple II.

Damn you for linking this while I'm at work! Now I'm gonna lose my job playing vintage video games!

 

[computernerdforlife]

Holy shit-balls, I just lost 20 years of my life and it's 2032. My PC is now a dinosaur and so is my TV.

 

[bustapr]

steam is selling this game for $1.25. Ive never played it and thought of buying it, but now Im confused. is Valve trying to cash in, or is the steam version any different?

 

[vochtige]

played it on windows 95 on diskette, i was 7 years old, even didn't have a soundscard! 2 years later those Germans spoke

 

[exfileme]

DOH sorry for the date. I'm a moron I know. Brain said 1992 and my fingers typed 2012. I must be possessed.

I think I have Hovertank 3D and Catacombs 3D on floppy disk somewhere. I keep everything, even the Alien mod for Quake.

ugg remember the days of tweaking config.sys and autoexec.bat to get DOS games working correctly? Seems like the Stone Ages now. -kp
