yea probably 200mhz or somewhere around 150-200...it was f#($*# slow! argh.. took at least 5-7 minutes loading up star:bw.. and out of the 5gb.. 3-4 was gone in 1-2 days..

 

"shudder" hate to think of those years with that computer

Hey man, quit bitching. I still have the same type of computer, except with a 8 GiB HDD. And it's my primary one.

No wonder you still use NRX.

well my first pc was an Amstrand (europe) where you could load tapes with games it took most of the time like 1/2 hour to load one game it was in grey scale, no color at all, then i was hooked to consoles from atari until now i only play with consoles, i don't use pc for playing, i don't i just don't like it, i use it mostly for video and audio capturing and edition, dvd ripping an edition, download, sharing music, videos as a server with my xbox, etc.

Hey hey, I would use Kawaks and whatnot if it weren't for DirectX issues.

Hell if I know, I got my first Atari computer when I was 3 or 4. Don't think I could say I WANTED one at that age.

I used to play with my dads 386 Compuadd for hours, i loved that thing, we had wolfenstein when it cost 50 bucks. oh man, then I moved to Win 95, and 98, then ME, and now XP Pro.

I still remember the first two games that got me hooked on computers are Digdug and Burgertime.

Yeah! These two rocked! Don't forget Defender, Choplifter, and Tapper.

 

I also liked G.I. Joe on the C64. It was kind of a fighting game, with a bigger roster than street fighter 2 and interactive backgrounds. Hehehe. It was more like a "duel" though 'cause you ran around shooting each other, and I think there were vehicle levels but I'm not sure anymore.
