    The original DOOM game was the first game I played with a friend where our PCs were connected together. It was a riot, especially when wearing headphones and hearing growls from behind you. I know modern tech has improved exponentially and graphics are unbelievable. But at the end of the day, it’s the experience that counts. And experiencing a multiplayer game for the first time like that, hasn’t been beaten yet, for me.

      Same here. My folks caved and bought a second phone line for computing, however it didn’t help. My friend & I would use the first phone line for voice communication :)

      The phone pressed to my ear with my shoulder, yelling to my buddy while fighting off cacademons, such good times.
