Hoopz:

Time to dig out the null modem, spend an hour setting it up, and then start the gib fest.

JoeB:

Gee thanks!! You made a cold shiver go down my spine. I remember playing this game like it was yesterday!! @$;$;@( life passes by way too darn fast!!

mamenewb100:

You mean the 56K er.... 28.8K days of gaming? Like when you thought you killed someone only to find out a few seconds later that you were shooting at air and actually died 10 seconds ago from a lag spike? Those were the days of real skill. ;)

DaOld Man:

Doom definitely did rock. Deathmatch mode was really fun.
If you haven't tried Serious Sam, you need to. I think it is leaps above Doom or Duke Nukem . (Of course it wont run on a DOS machine though.)

Slippyblade:

28.8... Wow, kids.

I actually downloaded the shareware release on a 1200 baud modem back in the day.  My god, that game was the most amazing thing EVER (at the time).  First piece of shareware I ever registered.  Buddy of mine was beta-testing a 28.8 modem for USR back then.  Thing was bigger than a modern day flatbed scanner.
