For a game that ran on a machine with 64MB of RAM thats a high minimum spec theyve put

and now I say: that's the minimum specs for the bloated impulse interface you need to use to download/install it


we had this conversation when it first showed up there

Wow, you had the whole 64? I only had 48MB back then so I couldn't play the really big maps.

I remember attempting to play TA on a 486 with a processor upgrade. It was painfully laggy, but I managed to beat the original game, and play on 32 meg maps for multiplayer. What a great game.

ive seen atari releasing whole TA pack for 10... still, it should be free after so many years >>

Ok now I know why I never heard of this game in 1996
32 megs, I couldnt even dream of that.
Typical on a 468 like mine was maybe 8mb of ram or 16.

Even starcraft 1 ran a bit choppy on it.
(DOS was better anyways, warcraft 2 ran good enough, btw DOS should have stayed the main OS forever then today only the right people would use computers.
Really the old games ran smooth as butter and then came win95 )
Excursion in pc history over....

Even evil alliance gave away the old C&C games.

Old games run smooth? I guess you don't remember divide over flow errors in dos that can also deliver a nice repeating audio bit.

[Machete234]

And you had to use some autoexec to get more free memory or something

[knorke]

sound was teh horror with this interrupt stuff and bla

Don't forget config.sys. For the glory days of dos relived, go download dosbox.

[Machete234]

Dosbox is horribly slow thats why I play my old adventures on scummvm.
