3 year old me playing Doom

#1

Post by darkstar64 » Sun Feb 24, 2013 10:17 pm

I found this old photo recently of me playing Doom when I was 3. You can't actually see the monitor that well, but I'm sure it's Doom based on where my hands were positioned on the keyboard. I didn't play other games that way. Thought it was pretty cool, and here I am 16 years later.

Yeah, I was about 4 or 5 but for the PSX. PC version with wads at around 9 or 10.

http://www.doom2.net/babydoom/ <-I wonder if those guys are among us now :)
I love Doom a lot, so... as a teen, I introduced my siblings. My bro was playing Doom since 5 :D I was playing with him on Doom Legacy on a split screen. He grew up to be better in competitive then me (which isn't hard from the other hand), was trying to make his own maps, and spent a lot of time fine-tuning mods for Doom 3. Then, he got a better computer...
And then, he discovered Valve games...
Knowing the community, I'm glad he's far from Zandro though, lol :D
My sisters... the eldest one feels sick from playing, so she stopped (I played hundreds of split-screen deathmatches with her on hipafrag before :/), and the youngest, well, I gave her Chex Quest.
Shared keys will now be in Zandro! Thanks devs for their work, and users for the support!

Started playing Doom at the age of 3. And then Starcraft, etc. All the games I played at the age of 4-5 were games that Dad was playing aswell. And now, I am a competitive guy in doom, pretty good at strategy games and puzzle games.

First started at the age of 2, i remember watching my older brothers playing Ultimate Doom, they first let me play through E3M8 (DIS) which was the first map i beaten, though the sequence afterwards gave me nightmares for many years in my early childhood.

Despite that, i've been hooked on Doom since.

It's not a beautiful poem, but it sure is deep.
