Do you remember: Commander Keen?

Back in the day before Apogee became 3D realms, they made quite a few awesome and very popular 2D Side scrolling games, one of them was Commander Keen!
I used to wake up early on saturdays just to get some extra play time in!

This was one of the best Win 95/98 games!! :D I remember playing this at my moms office when I was a kid with an old 1.4Mb Stiffy (and no not the type you youngsters are thinking of with your filthy minds), I'm talking about something that was the equivalent of a CD back then just not as posh. :p

Oh and not forgetting how many times you had to keep backups of your games on various hard drives, due to the amount of times your Disk would get scratched from sitting in your school back and would then become corrupt. :p

Whaaa? Commander Keen was a DOS based title, not Win9x.

Sheesh, youngsters.

Yeh I realize that chop, but you forget that those versions of windows actually had DOS!! :rolleyes: #facepalm

If you knew the commands it was simple to access the game, or you browsed to the directory on the stiffy drive and opened the .bat file.
 
That makes no sense whatsoever, /wonders if this is a legit post :rolleyes:

Would be playing the current version of Commander Keen. Then hear somewhere that the newest version is coming out soon. Very soon. Someone knew someone who heard from a friend who spoke to someone who had seen the new version...
