 KW>> gzdoom does rock. Maybe it's time for another DOOM game server...

Played DOOM at Electronic Arts in the Call Center "Pit", using IPX pretty much
took down the whole network while we were playing.

The only other game to encourage such passion that wasn't an iD Software game
was....



TRIBES!


IMO, still the most underrated shooter of all times. I wish it was on GoG. I'd
run a server and I guarantee most of my EA buddies who are still around would
play. Was the first game we played after hours that often had matches of 32v32.
Also got to play with American McGee and a bunch of other legendary EA peeps.

We even started challengeing other software studios like Activision and just
owned. We were so good they solicited us for strategies.

Yeah, Tribes, amazing game.
