    Awesome! Love your period hardware. I have a complete XP setup, but I would love a 95/98 setup. No more room.

    I did install 86Box last week, though! And installed 98SE. I was also partying like it’s 1996 with Microsoft Hellbender!

        I personally think Yuri’s Revenge brought about a bit too much mechanical cheese, and prefer vanilla RA2 - but I won’t begrudge a fellow fan their preferences!

    Ah, decoding the morse code at the back of the counterstrike manual to find the instructions for unlocking the secret ant missions. I think it involved clicking on the speaker looking thing in the top right of the menu while pressing shift

      Never played C&C on its time, but I play some games of ORA every now and then. Not bad at all I must admit.

        Is AOE 2 the one where you could use a cheat code to spawn in a blue sportscar with a machine gun on the front?

        I seem to half-remember taking a few of those into France a few times lol.

          It is. But there was a black sportscar in AoE 1, as well. And a laser gun warrior and a similar looking dude shooting miniature nuclear missiles.

    I play AoE these days because it has - relatively speaking - more real units. I do wish there was an AoE or C&C type game that used just realistic troops and vehicles and such. Seems like we have the computing power these days for a much larger-scale area of battle where you could command troops and vehicles over a small city sized map. Still RTS with fog of war and such… Maybe better simulated behaviours for the troops. But command your groups of military to go take out targets or attack positions and take terrain and such…

    Seems like it’d be awesome, but nobody has done it.

      Dune 2? That was my jam.

      Dune 1, iirc, was more of a story based game.
