ot: hmm far to many commodore users for my linking.

zx80 (1kb) was my first "pc" then the Spectrum range, then Atari's then PC's from a cga 8088 through to this Dell and my Mac.

Good to see I wasnt the only intellivion User. (Remember b-17 Bomber? Excellent Audio ).

Only games to make me spend money to buy playing kit/upgrade were System Shock, Ofp, IL-2 Sturmovik and now Arma.

It's awful/fantastic that at my age i'm still playing games and loving it .

Regardless, Ofp/Arma community may be a little on the young side (ie anything under 30! but I think, on the whole, the feel of the game and the forums is more mature.

Just had to chip in again

15 1/2. Mental age of 18+, with some rare childish humour and irn-bru overdoses. (J/k with the irn-bru)

42 here.

Never made it into the active military just Army JROTC and ROTC in college. Sometimes I wished I had been active but when I was almost ready to sign on the dotted line to do the 3rd year of ROTC, Reagan was cutting the office corps. I didn't want to enlist and start all over again.

After playing OFP I realized how easy it was to get killed randomly. Maybe it all turned out for the best?

Never forget the C64 was the most succesful home PC ever.

My list was:

VIC 20 (scramble)

C64 (Impossible mission)

Atari ST (gaunlet, dungeon master)

Amiga A500 (defender of the crown, test drive)

Amiga A2000 (anyone remeber Deluxe paint?)

DOS.

IBM Clone 386 (orcs vs humans and that star trek game)

IBM PC 486 33 8 meg memory(first PC on web, well compuserve, this ran DOOM, warcraft 2).

WIN 3.11

IBM PC 486 66 16 meg memory (first PC I ran 3d cyber studio on).First video card that could do 32 bit colour.

WIN95

Pentuim 120 72 meg for 3dstudio v2, Diamond video card.(doom 2)

Then a few more Intel CPUS till

WIN98/NT

P2 300 with 300 meg ram and a PVR card, this allowed full MPEG 2 encoding and play back in 1996 Diamond firegl card. (halflife)

NT

AMD 600 with 512 meg ram and a vodoo card (1998?).

several more AMD cores and laptops

XP/WIN2000

AMD Athlon 2000 with DVD writer and 1 gig ram (2002-3) geforce 3 ti 500 (BF 1942, OPF)

XP

AMD 2400 with geforce 5950

(farcry)

AMD 2800 with geforce 6800 GT 128

(BF2)

AMD 4000 64 with geforce 7800 GTX 256

8800 GTX 768 KO

(ARMA)

VISTA?

E6600 sitting in a box with ram and a mobo waiting for Arma to like them (or crysis).

That's my major games machines, left out the work ones I owned as well.

To compare the E6600 with an 8800 to a vic 20 or 486 is quite laughable. The poer of modern machines is beyond anything we could have hoped for with moores law. GPU's are growing at a rate that beyond expectation.

"...my father used to wake us up, half an hour before we went to sleep, give us a handful of cold gravel for breakfast, and when we came home, he would kill us and dance around on our graves singing "hallelujah!" You tell kids these days and they don't believe you!"

VIC 20 was rubbish my parents bought me that and all my mates had consoles. The only games were ones were programmed in youself. You remeber the BASIC games you got in mags.

The tank game move an asterix around the map of brackets. I almost dont retro game I hate Jets Set willy and manic Miner etc. For me the first good game was Guantlet or Star Glider on the ST. Till then the arcades were the way. The ST and Amiga for me changed gaming from consoles over to the "PC".

From the 486, 66 I paid for all my machines through work being a Computer Artist. For many years 3D studio Max and Photoshop software upgrades always cost more than the hardware.

Only recently can software now cost more than the hardware.
