I loved it. There’s nothing I couldn’t get to work. I would tinker away. Sometimes people would call me to fix their PC or games. I was in my element. Made some good friends out of a skill set I no longer use 😢
A DX2/66 = Doom in full screen 😊 very nice 👍 3.11 I remember had built in networking, very good for the time being able to drop in and out of the command prompt. A game I always like to recommend is Blade Runner 👍
"All the big hitters made their debut on this operating system. I'm talking Doom, Prince of Persia, Lemmings…" All three of those came out for OSes OTHER than MS-DOS before coming out on MS-DOS. (NeXTstep, Apple II, and Amiga respectively.)
What I meant to say is that it attracted all the big hitters, my bad. But Doom was a PC exclusive, first released on MS-DOS. The other games I mentioned were better on PC.
@@ClassicReplay As i said you haven't got the slightest clue what you're talking about. Doom never was a PC exclusive. It was actually one of the first games that did run on Linux. The source was available. It ran on many Unix Workstations such as SGI etc. It was also released on Sega, SNES and MacOS.
@@youtubevideos415 mate, I feel sorry for you. You need to get out more. Doom was officially and commercially released on MS-DOS PC 🤦🏻♂️ Everything else was just a demo. Platforms that weren’t viable. The PC version original and best. The 32X, it was crap and sounded like someone had consumed a bad curry. As I mentioned before, don’t be jelly. Please don’t mention the SNES version 😅 Mac tiny window effort 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Aside from the games, the greatest thing about the golden age of DOS was being treated like a genius just for getting something to work.

I learned more about computers getting games to run on a 386 than I did with formal schooling.
Exactly 100% true statement
Thanks for the vid. I still enjoy playing MSDOS games on my Raspberry Pi4..
cheers mate. I still have a P450 to play all my old games on.
I entered the world of DOS through MS-DOS 6.22 + Windows 3.11, both running on a PC 486 DX2/66 in 1994!

Great video dude!
Thanks a bunch 👍
I spent a lot of my youth to play shareware versions of most of these games. It was magic.
I used to survive off of magazine cover disks ☺️
Ever heard of GOG?
@@victormendes1588 I didn't heard of it in 1995 😅

Yeah. This dude hasn't got the slightest clue of what he is talking about.

I miss those days. I had 100’s of ms-dos games.
Its just not the same anymore
Last proper MSDos game I played was probably Screamer
I was too young at the time to have lived through this era of computing but there's something so nostalgic and cozy about it that I just adore.
You had to use your imagination
never knew another world was released on this system remember playing it on the snes.
There's hundreds of games I didn't know about. If you ever get the chance and a fan of Sci-Fi, try Blade Runner.
What are you playing all these games on??? I need to know!!!
Just Google Legends Ultimate
is tetris still hidden in the code. use to be for most pre 97 pc's
I never knew that. I remember playing Solitaire and Pinball, plus a game hidden in Excel. But Tetris, no idea.
Are you from Liverpool? (I'm working on my UK accent guessing)
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@ClassicReplay damn I must be way off
Gotta give it up to mechwarrior 2 that game should not have existed in 94 and I credit that game for establishing my draw to PC gaming
Many games ahead of their time, countless memories. Magic Carpet blew me away
Windows ver 1.0 was a rip off of the Macintosh 128K 'System 1' operating system , who stole it from Xerox
100% if only Xerox understood what they were sitting on 😞 I think Microsoft stole it from Apple, as Steve Jobs saw it first
I still use DOS for some day to day tasks. Batch file renaming is quite useful (ren *.* *.new) 😊
Same here mate. Use it on my Pentium PC 👍
