Good finds, Rottweiler :)

Indeed, Death, we had a similar history. I loved writing about games too, especially the ones with simpler stories, since they have so much area for improvisation and making up my own stuff.

The cool thing about the old days was that you didn't need source ports for anything - DOS was fully supported under Win 95/98, so you could run anything directly, including Quake and its contemporaries. I think the reason I switched to Winquake was because some hardware upgrades affected DOS Quake's stability and it wasn't so reliable anymore... while Winquake used DirectX and was thus a better option.

Ohhh yes, I hate having the CD in the drive too - especially if it causes loading delays. This was the case with Diablo and I had to exercise a lot of patience... until I discovered the magical world of disc images, which solved this problem :)
