>>>>>>I wasn't very good - compared to others around me - at these games, but I loved to play them. I did well at the Star Wars game - wireframe, but very realistic - though I've never met anyone else who even heard of it.

>>>There was this stupidly addicting game called "Sopwith Camel" I think, that was played on my first Tandy 1000. You flew a plane (wide angle side view only) across the screen and fought another plane. It was very simplistic, but I couldn't stop playing it. Tried to find a pic or link to it, but the ones I found were way more complex. This was like watching a cartoon.

>>Years ago I used to play old Doom with my wee daughter (3/4) on my knee. Once I tried to get her to bed and she screamed the house down with, repeatedly for c. half an hour "I WANT TO PLAY THE KILLING GAME!"

>My daughter loved Barney the Dinosaur (annoying song purple dinosaur). She watched the show all the time. So my son and I were playing a modded Doom 1 where the monsters were Barney. My daughter comes in to see what we're laughing about and bursts into a shreiking tear-filled fit! Which only made us try to laugh and feel concerned at the same time. :) I don't know if she's over it yet.

LOL

Was that one of those many game WADs you could get, like with extra scenarios, levels, etc.?
- Whoever said that women are the weaker sex never tried to wrest the bedclothes off one in the middle of the night
- Worry is the interest you pay, in advance, for a loan that you may never need to take out.
