Classic Gaming Review.

So, after installing DOS Box on my computer, I decided to head down to www.abandonia.com and pick up some classic games. Before I go into any sort of great depth on the review, I would first like to take some time to have some words about Doom

I've been messing around with some modified source code engines, like DarkPlaces for Quake (Adds actual accelerated graphics and such) and eduke32 (has actual 3d models and improved lighting).

I'm a sucker for old games too.

I have actually played around with eduke32 before . . . or maybe it was jduke. I can't remember, but it did add 3D models, add dynamic lighting, and give you the option for different resolutions. It was fun. Now they just need to make a port of something like that for Blood and I'll be happy as hell.

Gotta say, I never fooled around with DarkPlaces, but you have my attention. Perhaps I'll spend the few bucks, buy Quake through Steam, and download DarkPlaces. I haven't played the first Quake in a long time.

Pretty rad, no? The lot of us should download DarkPlaces and hook up the LAN party. While we're at it, might as well play Quake 2, Doom, Heretic, and Hexen. Old school night.
