Fun story - I got to seat in the Dean's chair (he's our boss). He is away on sick leave after having surgery done on his knee, but occasionally needs some stuff related to this big report for the accreditation process. So he called me to find some file on his computer and send it to him. Sounds easy enough... except that he is one of those people that keep everything on the Windows desktop. Folders, documents, pictures - doesn't matter, it's all on the desktop. Trying to find a specific thing is like looking for a needle in a stack of needles, which is also mixed with some scorpions. The whole experience gave me Daggerfall flashbacks :D

Romero is also working on the Sigil thingie - a new Doom episode in honor of its 25th anniversary. It was supposed to be released in February, but was delayed to April due to the deluxe boxed copies taking more time than anticipated. The WAD itself would be free, though. I've heard he is working on some more seriou project too (a first-person shooter perhaps) but there is not much info on what's happening with that.

Wireless transfer could be convenient, especially if it has a long range. I won't even have to take my storage media from wherever I am storing them. Just send the files over, via the invisible waves.

There is some hope - virtual machines and emulators are improving as well, so we will generally have options for running many ancient things. But there will surely be exceptions that will be lost forever for one reason or another.

The Wolfenstein series adapted itself to this ban by changing the Nazis to the "Wolves" (some sort of extremist group or whatever) in its German versions. But I'm pretty sure every German player was perfectly aware that these were supposed to be Nazis.

Perhaps you need a Quake grunt. As you know, they have probes inserted into their pleasure centers :D

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo jealous.
