I remember the world prior to the "consumer" Internet (which was really made possible by the World Wide Web). I remember when newsgroups were very popular and one had to use tools like gopher to find things.
My favorite games were Doom and Leisure Suit Larry.
I was a computer science major and we played games on our mainframe but they were text-based like "Adventure". Back in those days even most PCs had no graphics capability beyond simple ASCII graphics. Seeing a graphics-capable PC in operation for the first time was amazing even though the CGA graphics were horrible compared to what was available even a few years later.
