    Believe it or not, I actually have Duke Nukem 3D 20th Anniverary
    edition *installed*.
    Now you are going to make me actually play it! :-)


    Me, I've all the original versions installed on disk as part of my
    ultimate dos game collection, /and/ I have the classic editions on
    Steam and GOG from before Gearbox demanded their version be the only
    one available, so I can happily avoid their hacked up edition. ;-)


    That said... the 20th anniversary is on sale now for $2USD on Steam. I
    am now caught between two overwhelming and competing forces: the urge
    to avoid gearbox crap, and the need to grab a game that's has a 90%
    discount. Quick, somebody call my Gaming Anonymous sponsor; I don't
    think I have the willpower to resist! ;-)

    I will get it when it's $0SD! ;)

    What? Aren't you everyone else's Gaming Anonymous sponsor?!?!


    I don't know; I like to think of myself more as the little devil that
    sits on your shoulder and whispers in your ear, "Buy, buy, buy!" ;-)

    I remember downloading from a FTP server, playing, and uploading to a local BBS in the dark with my dorm roommie asleep. LOL! Do you remember its release day, old PC gamers?
