Yes! PC gamer here since I was 7 or 8 (now 32). These days my die-hardness fluctuates depending on my climbing partner availability/ability to get outside. However, getting games and peripherals to work (IRQ address issues for joysticks...yeah) back in the day (early 90s) was what got me into computers and what I can likely attribute my IT career roots to.

I'm about to drop some money on a new i7 VR build at the end of the month. Currently still enjoying BF4 but going to start on BF1 when the new build is done.

My gaming history favorites have been (in no particular order): most and all iD games (DOOM, Heretic, Hexen, Quake, Keen), Apogee/3D Realm hits like RoTT and Duke Nukem, various flight sims (DCS World is why I want a VR rig), anything and everything Star Wars (Dark Forces, X-Wing, TIE, Rebel Assault), Half-Life everything (CS too), MechWarrior(s), StarCraft, Command and Conquer, and the Battlefield series all the way back to 1942 (1942, Viet, 2, 3, and 4, but could do without Hardline and some of the other stuff in there).

I will say that the latest Doom release was the single best PC gaming experience I've had in ages (maybe since HL2) ****ing incredible that I was literally outloud giddy as I played it, and I yelled "**** YES" as the end credits came on after the final boss. They set the bar so high for revisiting a classic title and just nailed it so far out of the park.

I was just having a conversation about modded 4Runners in the Zombie 48p server last night! Which servers do you usually play on?

It seems like we're all pretty old-school here too, so I'll offer this too...anyone else hate the whole DLC concept? I miss when games were complete when you bought them, and if anything else needed to be added, they'd come out with a new game (e.g. Doom II, III). It used to drive me nuts when I was a broke college kid and it just doesn't feel very egalitarian anymore.
