Unlike other games, the ending is badass. Mecha Hitler? MEIN LAVEN



Protip: If your computer is suffering fps wise press the "-" button. It actually makes the screen smaller, allowing your computer to render less. You won't need to worry if you have a 386 or above (make sure you press the turbo button on the case) but if you're not up to date this works really well

It was actually used to slow the computer down to 1/2 speed or something like that. A lot of games used the CPU clock cycle for their timing or something like that, so if you didn't hit the turbo button and cut your HZ in half, the game would be playing at 2x speed. I remember I had a 2D animation program that I had to use the turbo button on my 486 because it would render the finished products too fast.

I remember needing to play most games in postage-stamp mode because I couldnt upgrade. When you shrink Rise of the Triad to minimum, it displays a message. "Buy a 486"

IF you have to revisit an ancient first persoon shooter then go for either Doom 2 or Duke Nukem 3D

I'll come out and say that I always found Doom pretty boring, even back when it was new. Never really got far into it. Both of them. Something about the whole presentation just didn't click with me.

Duke3D on the other hand, I think I played that a million times. Especially in LAN.

There are some really weird mods out there for this game.

Fun Fact: Wolf 3d wasn't designed to load external mods, so pretty much every addon ever is a standalone modified "pirate copy".

Like, imagine if Fallout 3 mods literally contained the full retail game files with some altered textures. That's Wolf 3d modding in a nutshell.

duke nukem 3d opened my eyes to multiplayer

If you have never frozen your friend with the freezegun and then shattered him into pieces with a kick you've never known true friendship

Or shrunk him with the shrink ray and watched him run around mouse-sized while you frantically try to stomp him into a puddle of blood

Duke Nukem 3D had the best guns

In Shadow Warrior if you get killed and your head is just laying around, Instead of respawning you can puke blood and if you manage to kill anyone like that, you gain no frags but it subtracts a frag from your target.

It's okay, starts off fun but gets super repetitive and the weapons and powers aren't too interesting.

Blaspheme.

Doom is still the best FPS and aged the most gracefully. Not that Wolf 3D isn't awesome.

The best solution is Doom 2 with a Wolf mod, everyone wins

Heretic II may be the most fun I've ever gotten out of a commercial bomb. Anyone who missed out on playing it, in particular in multiplayer and co-op, missed a pretty great game.

They were awesome until like 2002. All downhill from there sadly. Their Marvel games were amusing console brawlers, but they haven't made a classic in a long time.

I'll even stick up for their Soldier of Fortune cheesefests as being kind of awesome for their day.
