I remember the days when I tried to play Quake on my 28.8 modem over the net pre-Quakeworld. Almost made me swear online multiplayer off for life.

- brewtide 4y agoMy memory was marathon on the Mac played over a similar connection speed. I forget the software but it allowed a networked game to be emulated over a PPP dialup session. Fondly look back at those times, indeed.
- Seanambers 4y agoYou should've tried Doom over dialup :)
- Foobar8568 4y agoDiablo 2 in HC over dial-up in South France was fun, especially with the random disconnection that was plaguing different providers...
- phplovesong 4y agoDuke nukem 3d. Dialup. Wow thats pure nostalgia!

- base698 4y agoDoom was ok over dial up computer to computer. Quake was even slow connected direct over modem. I would guess the slowness was the extra data for the 3rd dimension going over the wire.
- aliswe 4y agoQuake even synced gibs
- 1letterunixname 4y agoIt's all about Doom over null modem.
