We had an Atari 2600 and an NES, some of my earliest memories are of sitting on the floor in the living room next to my dad, each of us with an NES controller in hand, playing Mario. I guess I should start by saying that before I could walk, my father had turned me into a gamer. ![]() ![]() Hey rtwjunkie, I know you play Company of Heroes with Blitz mod, and so do I Those games worth the money pretty well, 8 years and still going. I then got Battlefield 1942 and Company of Heroes, Those games ARE so much fun that I keep playing them till TODAY especially Company of Heroes. An Asus laptop with Nvidia 7700 Go (Yes it is 7700, it is not a typo). in 2006, I decided to buy a laptop with a good graphics card. I also remember that I tried to get the latest drivers for the graphics card ATI RAGE 16 MB (or was it 8 or 4 MB?) because I wanted desperately increase performance and added DirectX 8 support and because there is no real market in my country to actually buy a new video card. The game however required 64 MB of RAM or was it graphics card's RAM? anyway, The PC didn't have that much or RAM/vRAM so I gave up. I found a game in one of CDs made by 3D, the first helicopter army men game. Then I kept buying the PC magazine that comes every month just to get the demos and sharewares because the internet was so slow ( dial-up), I can't just download anything from the net without frustration. It was an RTS game about bugs going into war Red Alert style. I downloaded many shareware games including Swarm Assault. When he came back again, I started using it. Then my brother flee to US again to continue his college there. I only watched him playing Driver, and it would stutter when the car ran full speed but he and our brothers didn't care about the stutters. He put it in our room when he came from the US. I can't really remember when but I think 20 years ago or more, my brother had an Acer Pentium III 300Mhz(?) with Windows 98. i finally tasted the multiplayer online after so many years playing alone campaign games or a few ones in lanparties. From that point i started selling my PS1, PS2 and putting all that money in pc parts and games. that was my first AMD pc with an ati radeon agp 9600.įrom that point i started buying my own stuff reading a lot from forums that a friend that had access to internet gave me saved webpages. then i started watching what he did and making questions i realized that i could upgrade my pc using parts. but let me call a friend of mine that can put you all this together. is better than what i have? the answer from him was : WTF do i know. My dad brought me one day some parts.( my question was. Well, since that i started playing Warcraft 3 and frozen throne, damn those were good times. but like i was a guy who was born in the skirts of Havana city never had the chance to be in touch with pc. ![]() my frist pc was a pentium 3 dont know wth WAS BUT THAT WAS WHEN I MET HALF LIFE!!!!!!!!!!īeing in university was great for my introduction into pc gaming a lot of people were already playing on pc for long time. my need of a computer became relevant to my mom and she decided to help to buy one. Another few years passed and then i went to university. Since was my cousin laptop i had the chance to play everyday and beat the game till the end. My cousin came with a laptop and showed me Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Like a few years more playing on those consoles. my expression was like oh damnnnnn !!! can i try ? the sensation of playing with a mouse and a keyboard was unique. One day one of those friends took me to his house, his father had a computer and he was playing Dukenukem 3d. Me and my friends used to go to a place where we could pay 50 cents for hour playing Nintendo, snes and the story of consoles +++ blah blabla. lol Im cuban so in Cuba we didn't have internet.
