    I first played Duke3D at 8 years old in 1996. It was a 486DX 4 100mhz with 36mb of ram, Windows 95, and a Sound Blaster 16 and Roland SCC-1. Yes I was one of few people back then who got to hear the good music in the games that supported it. I still have that Roland SCC-1 and it's still working today.

    I actually never played Duke in the 90s. When we bought our first computer in 2001, it was preinstalled with a bunch of (clearly bootleg) games, including Virtua Cop, Disney's Hercules... and Duke Nukem 3D, Atomic Edition. Well, at least until several years later mom saw me playing Serious Sam demo, she got mad about how gory it was, and told me to uninstall it and never play such violent games again. Then she asked if we have 'any other games like that' and my snitch of a brother ratted out the Duke 3D and it was wiped forever. We didn't have internet access, so that game was for real completely lost to me for several years - we only got access to internet in 2009, and by then abandonware sites already nuked Duke because it was being sold again on GOG and so on. By the time I was able to buy it myself... Randy has nuked ability to buy Atomic Edition at all. At which point I got mad and decided to pirate it instead.
    But yeah, getting to play this again was a journey.

      My mom didn't do any such thing. Carmageddon was one of my favourites. Probably still is.
      I dunno, i guess nobody cared about video game violence in russia in the 90s.

      @@zloychechen5150 Oh, we played a ton of violent games. For some reason she was specifically concerned about first person shooters.
      I played Carmageddon, Blood Omen 2 - we especially loved playing Barbarian Returns with my brother (3D remake of C64 Barbarian, and yes, you could chop off opponent's head and such).
      However, my brother didn't know about the shareware episode of Doom or full version of Red Faction, so I was able to play these to my heart's content.

    Oh damn... did play Duke3D for a loooong time even in Multi Player with a friend of mine, connecting a cable between 2 PC's, get the right setup for networking and play. Did even make some own maps back in the days. Still have them.
    You should play the old Shadow Warrior as well, or Hexen or Heretic.
    Great video my friend, keep up the amazing work!

      Adequate performance but the "golden standard" was the P133 - only slightly better but every mhz counted.
      Of course many would sway for the P200... so it's seems more of a preference / nostalgia issue.
      I had a pretty good experience with the AM5x86 back then but the Pentium60 was cooler.

    It has a charm, outside of the nostalgic, very special. To many it may seem like an unimpressive video game today, but for that time, to watch this was to see a true demonstration of computational strength and speed. Seeing from how you turn on the beast to being in the middle of the fight is mind blowing. Thanks for sharing :)
