DOS Games Discussion

I still think linking commander Keen's game to the picture of keen up there would be a good idea.

Maybe a little too far to bump, but does anyone have any pictures of this bar, other then the logo?

Heh, looks like i was signed up for it too . Also Larry, you dont need a compatability list for the games, as long as they have a lan/tcpip option in the game its going to work.

Congrats to the winners!

Thanks again for holding a comp .

I didn't know we could swear on DGF. Anyways, I've had Hamatchi for a while now, and it works well for Starcraft Betas and sharing files. I wouldn't do it the way you are doing it now though, your bound to get hacked.

Wow I can't believe i forgot about this awesome place, i really need to start posting again! Cool competition

Lets see here...

This looks good

I can't pick a game because I'm in Australia.

I'm doubting they will restock it anytime soon.

I just use the one i download, then when i format the pc i download the latest one again.

I used to do Qbasic back in primary school. As stated before, the graphics are very very limiting and hard to control. But hey, it was nice and simple for loops and little apps.

Play around with the settings on your monitor.

"486 Processor at 100 MHz" ?

Why not a nice 166Mhz running pure dos. That will give you the power to play games such as lighthouse or rise of the robots then.

Download? He has the original copy.

He meant the Keen image would link to the download page, not change the picture...

All RTS games are similar, their not really ripped off...

And EA are crap all around, programming, etc. I liked it better when they were Electronic Arts.

But hey, all video game companies make all games for profit, so thats not really a point Larry.

Really... it seems to run all my old DOS games fine when in pure DOS, and not Windows 98.

No, they are definitely not. Older versions of Starcraft were never released and shown at E3, but were changed to todays Starcraft because of its "Orcs in space" feeling.

Maybe a mod to Glider Pro? I don't know many other Mac games. Speaking of, anyone know a good Glider Pro port for Windows?

Twice this week. Must be a Halloween special

Because Commander Keen is awesome, no one can get angry talking about Commander Keen =P.

I'll ZZZ you!

So, was it the game? sounded interesting.
