Quick download

 

[Rogue]

Yeah, saw this posted on HardOCP forum this morning. No one I have shown it too has not been totally amazed by it. That is some awesome stuff in that one small little package!

 

[Dee67]

Wow, that takes me back. I used to love these things.. Used to have a dozen or so on my old bbs, wish I still had the tape backup with them on it would love to see them again..

 

[DaveJ]

Wow... haven't seen one of those in a while! Anyone else remember Future Crew? They did some really awesome stuff back in the day...

Time to fire up Modplug Player again...

Future Crew was the best.

Remember Second Reality , gowd that was good.

the good old days, I remember them with a smile

 

[Dee67]

and purple motion

Found and am downloading second reality.. that was my favorite.. may not have my old backup tapes but apparently the net is just as good and even faster

 

[joshdoe]

pretty impressive for only 64kb. However I don't have a clue..

 

[JoeKing]

yeah this stuff is before my time........I just downloaded this other demo (Mental) by future crew and it asked funny questions like "is your machine a 12 mhz one or fast?" hehehe I put no, and it crashed my computer

 

[Bluga]

wow that was nice

 

[kami]

only 64kb? how the hell?

 

[DaveJ]

LOL! Yeah, I tried to play 2nd Reality, but it was coded for "fast" 33mhz 486 machines... guess my Athlon 650 doesn't qualify! It wouldn't even detect my soundcard, and froze when I tried to run it with no sound...

[Dee67]

2nd reality locked up before doing anything here too... OH to have my 486/33 again for just 5 minutes

<< Have you ever heard of a Demo? >>

Nothing like admitting you're a complete newbie, eh?

 

[Entity]

God, I remember demos. I miss those.

That was nice.

How the hell is it so small!!!!!!!!

 

[eyor]

lol, bober. I first saw this in the [H]ardforum and every single person was like &quot;WOW! That's amazing!&quot; until one guy came along and said where had they been, they missed out on an awful lot of computer history. lol

 

[sparkle]

Funny that one could missout on &quot;an aweful lot of computer history&quot; in only about a years time isn't it? Does that piss anyone off but me? Lets face it all, for thse of us who have computing as a hobby, you really have to stay on your toes. It's not like people who knit for a hobby, seeing as knitting hasn't had any great advances in a long time.

I love this industry for the rapid expansion, yet at the same time I hate it for that reason.

 

[sparkle]

pretty sweet, I like the music

 

[iotone]

can someone explain what a demo is?? this is the first time i've ever heard of one...

Demoes have existed since the 1980's.

WHAT IS A DEMO???

 

[sparkle]

yes eyor, I am aware of that. I was refering to computers in general. Probably was a little confusing though.
