Dude that tank game brings back memories. The old 3D vector graphics tank game right?
The one with just the green lines? If so, Battle Zone, fucking classic.
Yeah that’s the one! Just a black screen, green lines, and simple shapes
Weird, my 286 had a 2400 baud modem

Using your daily moves in Tradewars 2002…
I remember letting my brother’s friend use my computer and he reprogrammed my DOS boot sequence to play a (very simple) bleepy version of the teenage mutant ninja turtles theme song & then type out “TURTLE POWER” on the DOS prompt.

I remember that one year a generic magazine put out the Christmas edition with a multimedia CD, with various stuff on it, some simple games and other crap, but by browsing the disk (the secret art of skipping autoplay by right-clicking and selecting Open) we found a grainy jpg with a naked Asian lady with fake boobs. Treasure!
i remember this vividly. going to my friend’s house to watch the badger song, etc.
MUSHROOM MUSHROOM
SNAAAAAKEEEEE!!
When you entered, in the hallway there was a dedicated table that had a landline phone and paper phonebook on it. Possibly a pack of cigarettes and a lighter too.
Answering machine with the cute little cassette
I remember we discovered the shorter the phone cable the faster our connection would be. So my friend bought a 2 inch cable and we had the computer right up against the wall for that extra 2kbps

now this is podracing!
it’s not that old, it was still normal in 2010
You must mean it will still be normal in 2010, which is the far future when we’ll have colonised Mars and use our flying cars to go home to our floating home in the clouds.
