My first pc games where

Doom2, Descent, Altima 5.

Most recent.

Doom3, Crimson Skies, SH3, BF2 is nice too.

My first PC game was F119 Stealth Fighter (the developer got the designation wrong, because the stealth fighter was still top secret), by Microprose. It was in four colors, and I thought that I had the greatest machine that had ever been made.

Actually, I don't wish I was 30, because my thirties were my worst years, from the standpoint of finances and health. At 59, I can run a 4.2 second 40-meter dash, and 1:29 minutes on a 440 meter run. Several bank accounts, real estate, stocks, bonds, securities, and other assets make my 50's the best!

Well I'm 52 actually and I was never on a real U-Boat but I have visited the Finnish sub "Vesikko", the Type IIA prototype. I have also been to Chicago on several occasions but never had time to see the U-505

.
I did once spend a day at sea in a Royal Navy "A Class" boat, while doing an underwater warfare course.

Well, I turned 58 the end of May. Never served on a Sub (Army, Airborne, 66-70) but I have toured the U-505 3 times and would do it again. My first tour of the U-505 was some 48 years ago and it hooked me on subs for the rest of my life. My first Sub-sim was Seawolf or 688 Attack Sub, I can't remember which was first. Don't laugh, ya'll are headed for CRS sooner or later if you live long enough.

I´m sweet little 16 and I:
-never served on a sub

)

29, and soon 30. My first computer was IBM PS/1. We bought it 1990 and I still have it, and it works perfectly last time I checked it a couple of years ago. Ah, I played some of my favorite games with that, like Silent Service II, Star Control II, Civilization and Space Quest I - IV.
