  1. Current track I'm listening to that I think you should probably hear too:

    A Yamaha YM2151 arrangement/remake of "Goin' Down the Fast Way" from Rise of the Triad (DOS, 1994), which on its own is a banger, but this cover is beyond sick. The harmonies with the vibrato hit just right

  3. "Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition" for €5.99 in the Nintendo store, so I thought why not. I am mostly interested in the new episode which uses an updated features from the engine, which I find amazing in a case of a game from 1994. Notes to follow soon maybe because I already started 2 other games and I don't wanna spread myself thin.

  5. Rise of the Triad: Dark War is a classic 1995 shooter by Apogee Software, blending fast-paced action with inventive mechanics and diverse multiplayer modes. The jazzy and varied soundtrack, composed by Lee Jackson and Bobby Prince, enhances the game's unique charm.

  6. Interesting how Apogee/3DRealms used names of real products/organisations in their games. Examples:
    - In Bio Menace, the protagonist's Cessna crashes.
    - In Rise of the Triad, the protagonists are the "High-risk United Nations Task force".
    - In Duke Nukem 3D, the protagonist intends to drink Jack [Daniels] before the events of the game.

  10. Finally got the #ROTT game for #Playstation 4!
    Loved to play that game back in 1995 and I was so excited after
    #Wolfenstein3D and especially #DOOM!

    Never stopped playing it and used the
    #DOSBox in a #Linux laptop all those years. LOL

  13. @fucinafibonacci Tappa fondamentale per qualsiasi videogiocatore "maturo". Che poi pure molti cloni successivi lo migliorarono parecchio, anche perché l'impianto narrativo di doom, personalmente, l'ho sempre trovato abbastanza ridicolo. #DukeNukem, #RiseOfTheTriad, #Heretic, #Hexen #Tekwar, etc etc hanno tutti migliorato l'idea dopo. Ma il *vero* salto tecnologico e concettuale (e con il *vero* 3d) arriva con #Quake IMHO 3 anni dopo Doom

  14. Extreme Rise of the Triad has been finished! I think I missed all of the secret levels, but I really don't care enough to go back and try to find them.

    While there was a fair number of maps with really neat ideas or gimmicks, a lot of it was ultimately a bunch of obnoxious, cheap deaths.

    Glad to have finally played (and beaten!) it, but I don't think I'll be back. That said, hype to now move on to The HUNT Continues! :D

  17. #Riseofthetriad was a different experience for people who, like me, had just 4mb of ram. Here's what it was like / #rott era una experiencia distinta para los que, como yo, teníamos solamente 4mb de ram. Así es como lucía #dosgaming #retrogaming youtube.com/watch?v=-TV1snrGog

  19. Just to add on this after a few days, the new episode made by new blood & friends absolutely slaps. It's probably hard to do good level design with 90s degrees walls and all the gimmicks, but they absolutely succeed, I am having a blast, and only threw my arms up shouting "oh bullshit" once

  21. The Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition remaster is (so far) absolutely fantastic.

    It has like, 3 soundtracks, a million options for sprite variants/sounds, a whole-ass new episode that is really good so far, multiplayer, etc

    It also comes with Return of the Triad, the commercial zdoom standalone mod, for.. reasons? (it's good)

    Rott is a weird, unique game that was a labor of love, and the remaster is also just that, a labor of love. Fun times.

  24. Thinking about what I watched last night: been interested in videogames in the late 1980s, but was DOOM that put me in the eternal addiction in 1993. And today I own a but still play etc!
