I remember Commander Keen.

I also remember those Wolfenstein 3D levels hidden in Doom 2 where four Commander Keens were being hanged and you had to put him out of his misery to get to the exit switch. :)

Hey I got a Q for your guys (hope you don't mind piku, I didn't think it was worthy of a new thread, so I'll squat in yours ;)). I was watching the GeForce3/Macworld movie, and he announced John Carmack as being from id Software. And he said it just like that, "id", as in the beginning of "idiot". I always thought it was "I.D.", but without the caps and periods...was there anyone else that had it screwed up? I kinda felt dumb after hearing that, since I've been calling them I-D for the past 7 years :eek:

I think it's supposed to be id. (like in kid) Think id, super-id, ego. All those psychologicial terms. Anybody else care to elaborate?

Those keen games were greatness.

I've been gaming a long time, tho. I remember the original Wolfenstein. (the 2d one).
Achtung!

I used to have 1-6 on disk --the old 5 inch monsters.

I liked CK4. Although CK1 was decent toward the end of the game.
