DOS Games Discussion

Same here. Though our school computers are for school work only. >_>
I'd occasionally play online arcade games at home when there's nothing else to do...

I have a 286 computer that first helped me get into DOS games, however, I'm not sure of the specs, though it has a 3 1/2" floppy drive as well as a 5 1/4" one. My second oldest PC is a Packard Bell computer (not sure of the model, and don't really care to look). Windows 98, 300 MHz process...

Try DOSBox.

Posting your operating system, monitor type, and screen resolution would help.

Windows Vista just doesn't appeal to me. I'm currently using Windows XP and play games through emulators; it works fine. However, I've been thinking of using Windows 98 SE. I really don't think that my next computer will be this high-end 5 GHz supercomputer that'll supposedly last a while. Older com...

What game, or games are you playing through at the moment? And why do you like/hate it? Currently I'm playing two games; Duke Nukem 2 and Jill of the Jungle. Duke Nukem 2 is the sequel to Apogee's game, Duke Nukem. It's a great game, and I'd recommend playing through it. Jill of the Jungle was creat...

I have a ton of these Windows 3.1 pre-loaded games on my computer, so if anyone wants any of them, I have them.

It's Not A Website, It's An Irc Channel. Here's a guide TSM wrote to getting KVIrc up and running . After you're connected to P2P-Network, type "/join #adventurebot" into the console. If you need more help, PM me and I'll try to get you connected. The junkyard is not finished yet, Note the...

I'm having a bit of trouble finding out what to do after you reach the junkyard. Help?

But nonetheless, it's a pretty fun text-adventure. Can't wait for more!

Thirded!

I haven't really tried it all the way through, though it's kinda fun.

Larry and I are the chan's admins. :>

Ehh... all the other sites I visit didn't do a thing for April Fools' Day. I was pretty damn disappointed.

Maybe next year. //_v

The Simpsons beats Family Guy any day of the week. Family Guy was good the first three seasons, but the hiatus killed it. American Dad! is actually the Seth McFarlane show to watch now, because it actually gets funnier as time goes on. Sorry, though I disagree. I think Family Guy is funnier than Th...

The Simpsons is one of my favorite TV shows, though I don't generally keep up with TV all that much. In fact, I mainly just watch anime and cartoons like The Simpsons, Family Guy, ect. :/ That clip's hilarious, by the way. :> I have my doubts that Homer is Lisa father. The apple can't fall that far ...

I don't go through a game the first time with the use of cheats or anything like that the first on time the vast majority of games, however, do afterward to unlock some of the cool things the games have to offer. IE: having the player do things you wouldn't be able to do without those cheats. I'm gu...

I wouldn't mind seeing the video if you can find it again, though.

Use Partition Magic to create another partition on your hard disk. Just go through the program, filling out all the details it asks for (type of partition, how large, ect). Then boot into that partition. The last time I've used it, I think it had a few things about booting into it. Then install the ...

Overclocking your computer won't harm it, as long as you know what to do to keep it cool. Adding another fan would probably help. Now, I've never overclocked my processor, though plan to do so sometime in the future. In my computer, I have an AMD Athlon 64 3700+ processor currently clocking at 2.1 G...

I voted Banana Quest because I had the most fun out of it. Though Burgler is high on my list, as well as Burger Joint. Like Dogbreath had stated, there are WAY too many ZZT games out there to make a poll like this. Not to mention the games that top these choices as well. :/ My favorite overall games...

I think that Final Chance's explanation on Generations is pretty good. Try to play harder Generation 2 and easier Generation 3 games until you can easily play them, or even had mastered them. Then keep up the process with Generations 4, 5, 6, and 7, if you feel like it. I'm a decent gamer; I can pla...
