None, because I'm smart enough to just install dosbox instead of being a retard who'd pay money for that shit.

Then I'd probably play C&C or Tomb Raider for nostalgia.

well since we're doing this i'd rather have a fully functional PC that uses the pinnacle of older tech thats probably incredibly cheap to produce today

Like Blood or not, it's inarguable that Doom is far more influential to the genre and industry as a whole and could never be left out of such a collection (bethesda jewry aside). Literally nobody knows what blood is in comparison

You can't aim up and down in doom. People that worship it are cargo cultist.

that would be good for early Windows games because it's hard to emulate these OSs

>the console is built into the keyboard like a commodore 64

That would be slick.

You don't need to.

Also, blood's mouselook support was total ass and has vertical autoaim anyway.

I'd actually love to see modern refresh systems like the NuXT clone that Monotech makes, but for like the Pentium 3 / Geforce 3 era. Somewhere from 97/98 to maybe like 2002 or 2003. There are lots of games you can run from that era on modern PC's with workarounds or things like Nglide, but that's really the PC hardware generation that doesn't have good emulation options and also still has lots of issues running on modern PCs. PCem is great for running Win95, but it maxes out at like 300mhz and Voodoo 2. Still probably easier to just go out a build a system from that era though.

Doom

Shogo is fuckin terrible, why do people like that game??

hey this is kind of a retarded question but is there any kind of modern OS designed to be compatible with old games? I'm aware of DOSBox but what about a discrete OS?

don't be a smart ass and say Windows 95

Can Blood even run on a 486?

putt putt the car

>Bugdom
mah nigga

sorry i can't list every fucking pc game ever jesus christ

modern OS, no not really, there are things like Nglide which is a glide wrapper that lets you play voodoo supported games on windows 10. There is also PCem which is a PC emulator that scales from basically the XT series to a half decent windows 95 machine. As far as a native OS designed to run old software no not really.

I remember I used to imagine how it would be like living in a space ship, traveling from system to system, like a homeless guy living in his van, only his van has 10 torpedoes and 20 laser turrets. Like a space cowboy, Qadhs`xcnla`soqqawe`jqeqwalqdal. That's "YEEHAW!" in Klandasian btw.

Which is irrelevant when you're talking about Windows vs DOS versions of software.

My point being you can't emulate 486 or even 386 acceptably on a cheap ARM device.

You're retarded, even the 700mhz arm cpu in the original RasPi could emulate a 20mhz 486 with SVGA and soundblaster 2 support. The newer ones could run even faster without breaking a sweat. There is a fucking 386 emulator for nintendo ds retard.
