486 Deluxe EP1 - Wolfenstein 3D
from Commodore Chronicles Podcast · host Commodore Chronicles
Wolfenstein 3D (IMHO) was the catalyst for the modern first person shooter. It was also the reason I insisted that my parents pickup an IBM-Compatible PC. That PC would be an AST Advantage Adventure 6066d with a 486DX2/66 processor and 8MB of RAM and is the inspiration behind the 486 Deluxe podcast. Thanks to the Commodore Chronicles Family of Podcasts "Fast Load Collective" Patrons Chris Petzel, Jim Pones, Matthew Warren and Eric Nelson. I'm so thankful for your on-going support!
