  1. Sure, games got a lot bigger, more realistic and immersive, but in the 1990s we had: 

    - the complete game on release; 

    - no lengthy loading screens; 

    - no micro-transactions; 

    - no trash talking online;

    - you die, you replay the entire game; 

    - no DLC; 

    - blowing on the memory cartridges, lol; 

    - no one holding your hand with stupid tutorials (press WASD to move). 

  2. What's one game that caught your attention so hard that you forgot you're in a chair in front of your computer, or whatever you use for gaming? A game that captivated you completely and left you wanting for more, a game that had that WOW factor you've seen nowhere else.

  3. Being a gamer and upgrading every couple of years, I learned how to do it by myself, so I don't have to pay other people to do it for me. There are some tough areas where I don't venture, like liquid cooling (although there are plenty tutorials on YouTube), but I know how to install Windows, how to upgrade my RAM, install a cooler, add new hard-drives, find out the system specs, keep my system clean, etc. What about you? Do you get around your PC or you'd rather pay others to mingle with it?

  4. Yes, I did. It was a 3D space RTS built with a free engine. I released it in 2008 after working on it for 5 years with a friend. I did the graphics, the campaign, the sounds and he did the programming. The publisher (Strategy First) screwed us over by not doing anything for it after signing the contract. The end.
