I still have Return to Castle Wolfenstein, and it works great on Win7. I wonder if there are versions out there of the original Wolfenstein and Spear of Destiny that can run on a 64 bit OS?

If you hunt around, I think that you will find many emulators that will allow you to play almost any old style PC game and many console games. Several of them are open source, so you only pay if you want to. Be sure to check anything you decide to use closely, since some people are using these to rootkit machines.

Every once in a while, I go to a friend's house and we crank up the PDP 11/08 and play the original adventure.

Doom is the came that taught me that 1st person shooters make me sick. Took several hours of playing in a day, but couldn't play any of them since. Which sucks, considering how most military games are 1st person.

Doom 3 is sick. I mean,the graphics even by today's standards are very good; not only that, but the game play when the accident or whatever it was happens and you're left to fend for yourself with just a pistol and a few rounds...

I had the same experience with all 3d style games in that era, it doesn't happen with new games to me though.

Played some Doom 3d, messed around with Wolfenstein, and loved Duke Nukem but Quake was my game. Still have it, a 3D rendering version but there are still a couple multiplayer Q1 servers out there.

These are the reason I had to buy a XIM3 for Xbox360. After using a mouse & KB for FPS since 1995, it's impossible to use those controllers.
