I've been on computers since before Windows 3.x, which isn't the first version of windows overal, just the first with a GUI. Somehow I remembered the game Skifree the other day and managed to find the creator's website, where he provides a zip file with the .exe inside. I play it at work occasionally from a flash drive i bring with me loaded. I am one of those linux folks as I'm sure I've stated in other threads before though.

The best things about Windows 95 were the Weezer video and Hover!...

I just found out you can still get that game...

infinitemusic · 09.10.2009, 03:11 PM

I have a laptop I rarely use w Windows 3.1. It's actually the only version of Windows I ever liked using.

atsonicpark · 09.10.2009, 04:27 PM

Oh yeah, Buddy holly was on the windows 95 disc, I forgot about that. Just amazing.

I have so many games on old discs that will probably only run on 3.1. Creepy-ass adventure games and ones with weird videos that play at like 2 frames per second. Something really creepy about some of those old PC games.

i always thought this too but no one understands..

atsonicpark · 09.10.2009, 04:38 PM

I need to pull out some of those old discs and look 'em up on the internet and see if there are any stories about 'em. I mean, there's so many... I have this fucked up car racing game, and I literally can't play it, it's so creepy. It has video of this creepy guy talking about how you have to race around and kill people with your car. This was before Twisted Metal, Carmageddon, and so on. DOOM freaked me out, of course.. I remmeber people making these fucked up wads for 'em where the enemies turned into different celebrities and bunnies and shit.

Then, there was this game:

I remember when I was a kid, seeing a story on the news of someone playing this game and then getting up
and killing someone.

atsonicpark · 09.10.2009, 04:38 PM

seriously!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8-dipscKg4

This is exactly what I'm talking about, scary as fuck!

I need to figure out what frames per second this is in, I think I can make one creepy ass movie that way..

Satan · 09.10.2009, 04:39 PM

atsonicpark · 09.10.2009, 04:41 PM

OH, totally forgot this game:
