Thanks for the read didn't know about a lot of it. I think i've seen some gameplay videos of Tresh just destroying people in Quake. Also I played both Doom and Hexen and man did i suck at Hexen :s

...and 1995 isnt so long ago
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

Sick article - brings back some great memories!

I remember playing against John Romero, Charlie Brooker and David Mccandles in some PCZone Quakeworld event thing - 16 player on DM4! (still the best quake map ever made...!)

We played quake multiplayer so much - I remember being interrupted by a friend during a deathmatch on DM2 and unconsciously spinning my mouse and trying to shoot him with my rocket launcher! Ahh, and they say videogames don't have any bearing on real life actions!

This article is a part of me, as much as I want to burst out into trivialities, I know how much these games mean to me. Thanks for posting this m8, there really is nothing else liek it.

WOW!
Bill Gates is awesome! Backing the gaming community from a young age. You can see he really believed in the PC being a dominate force in the entertainment world.
