I don't game as much as I used to

I don't game as much as I used to,

However, whenever IDSoftware puts out a new game?

Well, generally I try it & like it.

(Doom III & Quake 4 SMP were a LOT of fun in their last output: Fairly long games & different in some regards in that there was much more "interactive environment" type factors plus lighting & shadowing features that are neat looking).

Good technology, every time!

:)

* Those &, of course, these too even @ times (their older stuff & more, ported to OpenGL of today):

OpenGL & DirectX 3D ports of classic games:

http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=12354

APK

P.S.=> That's as far as "first person shooters" & 3d gaming of today - I still play MAME32 & what-not (actually more of a port I obtained from a Micro Center back in 1996 or so of Defender, StarGate, Asteroids, etc. 1980's "Williams Arcade" classics as well, but rarely)... apk

That must be one heck of an overclock.... :laugh:

mostly I find myself playing NFS:MW. Which is embarassing to admit, since I'm a sometime-race sim fan. I also fire up GTR for some Spa hot-lapping action. Less frequently, I play HL2 and Q4.

I own tons of games that I haven't played. that includes PS2 and console games. I spend more time hunting for cheap games, and posting on forums like this, than playing them :p

Freelancer
Heroes II
Age of Empires II
Warcraft II and III
Starcraft
