Quake is 10

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the shaky-decade dept.

cyclomedia writes "Late on 22nd June 1996 Quake was uploaded to cdrom.com's archives in the form of 7 1.44MB floppy disk images. Though it wasn't until the 23rd that everyone realised (or at least, that's my excuse for being a day late with the news submission). Cue much aggravation on the newsgroups as eager downloaders experienced glorious 2 FPS gameplay."

    1) Find a 486DX/66 with 8 megs of RAM 2) Play Quake on it 3) Call yourself an ass-faced liar The DX means FPU.

    I've got a 6" floppy, too. Of course, it's 10" whenever i think about Natalie Portman!
