Update: Finished the Anno 1404 campaign tonight. Think I liked 1701's campaign better, the new one is more story driven with people nagging you all the time. I think the game is geared more towards the players playing the continuous sandbox mode, with the campaign just getting your feet wet.

I'm playing Descent To Undermountain at the moment. Seriously! I bought it a year ago on ebay, and I have only just installed it. I was the only bidder. I've just read some reviews, and now I understand why. I picked up a mint boxed copy of DTUM about 5 years ago when I started getting into retro …

Updated 3-6-2010 Added Torchlight I was playing Torchlight during the holidays, playing a Mage type whatever it was called. I was around lvl 17-18 I think, had my animal armed with spells and 2 nicely upgraded golems. BUT when all 4 of us started attacking, the screen was filled with so much magic …

I'll continue to hold out for a Geforce 300 card, I like smooth performance and AA at 1920x1080 and the Geforce 300 series looks to be the most likely to easily achieve that in graphically intense games.. I think Nvidia will have to get it right with the 300 series to top ATI's 5970... That card is …

I never used a K5, I owned a K6 though. And it was far better than the PIIs it was competeing against. I just cant agree with that. I owned a Celeron 300A @ 450 and a AMD K6-2 400 and the celeron ran circles around the K6-2 when it came to things like Quake III. And the AMD refused to overclock any …

The Pentium MMX 233 seems really interesting. I hope I find one. I have an extra one if you cant find one locally, but overseas shipping kinda kills the deal. Even if you can only find a 166 MMX, those puppies overclock just as well as the P233s. With a good socket 7 mobo they can hit 290. Or 300 …

Nice rig, but you have so many more slots to fill. 🤣 If it was me and running Win98, I would go find a Pentium 200 or 233 MMX and drop in if if the mobo supports it. Dont forget a heatsink/fan if you overclock or get a new CPU.

I played this back in early 96' and I thought it was an awesome shooter, really showed off what my new Pentium would do. :happyhappy: So I just installed a 1.2 version disk I have and running on my Pentium 200 with Awe64 I had no issues playing the game game in DOS or from within Win95. Sorry keropi …
