Wolfenstein 3D review
Join me as I recall my first time encountering the legendary American spy William Joseph “B.J.” Blazkowicz, and his heroic adventures in samey looking Nazi fortresses known as Wolfenstein 3D (id Software/Apogee Software, 1992). Why are all the turkey dinners on the floor? Is that some sort of a German thing? Mein leben! MobyGames page: http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/wolfenstein-3d […]

Big Blue Disk
Today I take a look at an IBM PC diskmag “Big Blue Disk”. Published from 1986 to 1998, it was known for its variety in software it had to offer, and many games. When it came to games this diskmag had ties to many pc gaming legends, including Moraffware, Apogee, and id Software. But wait! […]

Quake Redone Quick
This is the original 1999 release of Quake Redone Quick, a complete Quake 1 speedrun on Nightmare difficulty in 14:32 by just one person – Ingmar “Nagasaki” Poerner.

Thousands of internet multiplayer servers and total conversions followed the release. Two official mission […]
