Quake, C&C, SimCity, and Civilization for me
Quake, Civ 3 and Serious Sam for me. So glad I grew up on PC games
same :)
First ones for each, right?
yup
Glorious! Quake and Civ especially. I remember being so impressed with Civ after seeing it at a neighbor's, that I've started making unit tiles to play at home
Yeah, Civ really sucked me in as a kid, I spent countless hours on it. And Quake was amazing at lan parties, still one of the best FPS games to date in my opinion. It's way more fun than vast majority of FPS that come out today.
oh yeah, civ game mechanic is just so good at keeping your engaged
Quake was weird for me to comprehend as a kid, I thought it was Doom and no amount of arguing would tell me otherwise, I was like “it’s not a different game it’s a different level of Doom smh”
We did a lot of lan parties with friends when I was a kid, and we tended to rotate C&C and either Duke 3D or Doom 2. I sucked at both Duke and Doom cause I wasn't as good at strafing while turning. Then Quake came out and I was the first one to realize you could play with the mouse, and it was a game changer. Cause all of a sudden aiming became so much easier. 😄
