Triads is a basic term for the Chinese "mafia".

 

Kinda like the Yakuza is the Japanese "mafia".

 

I loved Rise of the Triads.....wish I still had it. It was ten times better than Doom or Hexen....which were contemporaries at the time. The bosses were hilarious.....like the guy in a motorized wheelchair.

Have Wolfenstein, Doom, Doom 2, Duke Nukem, Heretic, Diablo, Shadow Warrior, you name it it was what I enjoyed but I still have ROTT and it's one of my favorite games as well - love it. Games like those are IMO a good reason to keep an old PC.

Good old Lo Wang. :lol: Man those Build engine games were some real fun times.

 

You don't need a rickety PC to relive the good old days, just Dosbox and a reasonably fast modern computer. :cool:

Some of these DOS games have XP compatable versions floating out there. ;)

This was the first FPS I played online with a friend.

 

We played over a dial up modem. Right around the time Command & Conquer was popular if I remember correctly.

We played those two games almost every night.

I'm pretty sure several of those titles were released as homebrew on the Xbox as well...

 

Wolfenstein, Doom, Doom 2, Duke Nukem, Heretic, Shadow Warrior, ROTT , Hexen, Descent 1 & 2, Quake 1-3.

 

Originals needed of course for the commercial .wad files.

I think I still have the shareware version of ROTT somewhere. I haven't played it in over ten years, but I remember it being pretty cool. I preferred Doom and Duke 3D though.

 

Now, does anyone remember Operation: Body Count? :cool:

I remember playing it for a while, I don't think I got too far into it, but I remember getting to some area where you need a gas mask.

I liked DOOM better, dropped Rise of Triad before long and never played it since.

Love Blake Stone.

 

Another great game from Apogee.

 

I played this game religiously in my teens. Had both Aliens of Gold and Planet Strike. Liked it cause it wasn't only a shoot em up like Doom, but you could talk to some of the scientists to get there tokens, and get bonuses at the end for not shooting the good guys. Great game, just wish it was more recognized by fellow gamers.
