, by NiN. i actually had the DOS version of this, but with redbook audio, i more feel it towards the windows era. i remember being on line with my dad at a long-bankrupt chain called "Circuit City" -- my dad would sing oo-wah, oo-wah, talkin' 'bout the girl from circuit city -- and there was Quake shareware CDs for free in the checkout aisle. effectively, a free nine inch nails album, for some kid that had never heard nine inch nails ever before. god bless iD software for that so much. |

hunter hunted, sierra, win95, guy at radioshack demo'd it to me and i was immediately sold even though he had the music off. than quake really. sounds like a lot of kurzweil samples |

i dunno wtf is up with youtube, but every hunter hunted vid i can find has half the shit wrong. i owned the game, i ripped the CD myself, and it came with titles. track #2 registered as "Oblivion" while youtube has it as "The Swampy Pits" and other bullshit. i know it's stupid, but it bothers me quite much |

even when i had windoze i'd just run dos games and emulators on there. actually no, much later on i'd play bullet hell games but i forget the name of the best ones sadly. clean asia and warning forever were good but a little easy once you knew the mechanics, fun but you need a game that just cripples you if yr doing it right duke3d would technically run under windows but fucking grudgingly and it alwlays opened its own dos shell so it doesn't count. feel like winding games were always on the verge of crashing at critical junctures |

clean asia and warning forever sounds like an album title to me |

i got to go to normal summer camp, but the the time i appreciated duke3d most was when i got to go to computer summer camp, and we were maxing out the ghetto old network play mode with as many people as it would allow, in the same room. in the stadium level, which was not very large |

*winding = windows (duh) win95 blew my mind as a kid. growing up with dos then seeing in a neat little box you could drag around was some deeply cool shiznit. and i loved pimping out my desktop with stuff i'd bring home from the library... got stirrings in my prepubescent loins from gillian anderson themes from tucows |

the real, corny truth ~ i see hackers in the theatre when i'm 9. first time i hear orbital, prodigy, underworld, etc -- the visuals of that movie are incredibly stylized but also technically quite traditional -- models and cuts, not actual computer graphics. the win95 theme "inside your computer" had the same sort of appeal to me at 10, a year later. with hindsight, i'd call it a prop designer told to go nuts; depict what goes on inside a computer meanwhile, for sound schemes -- "robots" was better. eventually, i discovered wav files, and from there it was a couple years of novelty WAVs that i'll be happy to forget |
