california games/F19 Stealth fighter

Playing F19 and Railroad Tycoon (1?) on a mate's Amstrad prehistoric PC was what started me down this *huge* waste of life and money. My first PC was bought as soon as I read a PC Zone review for the flight sim 'Tornado'. It was all downhill from there. :-)

Alone in the Dark, IndyCar Racing, X-Wing, ah.... those were the days... and nights... and weekends.

Was so long a go, can't really remember.

Think it was Discworld or Heretic.

Alone in the Dark on a Tiny PC we had to practically remortgage to buy. IIRC, the processor was something ridiculous like an original Pentium, with a clock speed of about 90mhz, and that was an upgrade!

Amstard 2386 and my reason for getting a PC was Pool of Radiance and most of the AD&D series that followed. This was a long time ago, back when those days were the good old days.

Stonekeep. With its digitized human actors, it was nothing like I'd ever seen before.

...and then they'd crash. Always happened to me with Project Stealth Fighter on the C64.

First PC game i can remember playing was Raptor.
