Wow men, i checked my analytics and i need to thank you all for watching, thx for likes and subs! I am glad to see there is an interest across my retro channel :) 

Now, i am planning to start a Baldur's Gate series. I think there are lot of people here liked old rpgs :)

I couldn't get into BG gates. I prefer Diablo (not 3). :D

I understand... BG is too chatty game :) And true: Diablo 3 was horrible.

What about Gothic series ? Gothic tells its story very briefly and excelled in the perfect game design.

I think I played its demo back then. It was OK. I'm still playing Oblivion (finished its main quest). I liked that one!

I like the video. In my experience, the game slows down after a few more maps; keep going!

I'm 27. DOOM and Timesplitters will always be the pinnacles of fps for me. Just fucking thankful I don't have to play with Doom95 anymore.

It's a pretty good console shooter tho. Don't think it's the pinnacle of FPS but it's quite good to have fun for a while, still replay it occasionally on my homebrew-enabled Wii (Emulation might be better but i got no money for a PC that good!).

[Beelzethoth]

I definitely put Timesplitters up on a pedestal that not everyone agrees with. Sure there were shooters that were technically better, like Halo for example, but I always found the variety and customizability of Timesplitters to be an experience that really stands on its own. Story mode, arcade mode, challenge mode, mapmaker mode, and a ludicrously fun multiplayer were you can literally control every aspect of every match right down to the music, the radar, even how smart the AI of your opponents will be, should you choose to include bots. I've also found that Timesplitters is the best fps to bust out at parties, probably because it's lack of notariety and goofy humor helps remove the stigma that peope feel like they have to be good at games in order to have fun playing them.

old nerd here aswell.. 39 to be exact, soon to be 40.. Coder by trade...Doomer by fate...

 

I am also not too much in to EVERY new game.. I DO like the ones with mods though.. like Eldar Scrolls, Fallout 4, 3, NV... But the newest "Fallout".. not so much

 

even doom 2016 is a little to modern for my taste, I like the way old Doom can be modernized in GZDoom with 3D models etc

 

I have a lot of good memories from playing the old might and magic games... Those games would be interesting to remake in the GZDoom engine.. but with a twist... some?/one? of the might and magic games allowed you to freely hire and fire party members as you went along your merry way... that was cool...  you could even hire dragons as part of your adventure party

CBM: Well, man. I have all these games you named in my gamming plan already 😃 : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOrY4jt1Qh_mMIKZfHXIA2A/discussion

Fallouts, M&M, Gothic, TES - all of these games were legendary ! My favourites. Waiting for more audience to enjoy these diamond-titles together.

Thx for your awesome feedback 👍

Excuse me, found this site in search of a way to run the doom 2 cd on windows 10. Any of you know how? I keep getting this error about not having the right 32 bit support.

You need modern sourceports to run doom (there are many, but my favorite is GZDoom) and blood (NBlood or BloodGDX)

 

diablo, half-life, thief and postal? not sure.. but they might also have modern sourceports or similar tricks to make them work on a modern system
