I gotta do it, for the old DOS gamers like me that might like these ALOT as I do...

OpenGL patch ports, for your DOS oldies anyone? These games? They were designed for performance on 486's... they absolutely SAIL/FLY on today's Pentium III or better!

Ones like ZDoomGL, for Doom I & II are pretty widely known...

(It was like getting 3 new games to be honest, old ones I really got into since I still think DOS based games had better gameplay & plot + atmosphere vs. the technology & 'flash' concentration in games I see today alot in the First Person Shooter Genre, my fav!)

WELL, some thoughts on them! Man! NICE!!! Really nice... especially JHexen! Read on.........
