Never played it but it was made by ID Software who went on to bigger and better things with Doom and Quake.

you should try dota, it takes skill and teamwork. no game is the same. but really need to make sure you have high speed connection as hero movement is critical.

Haha... tape recorders....

My sinclair spectrum ended up having a dodgy play button which you had to hold down or it wouldn't work.

This was bad... especially since i used to play combat school... which had a 8 min loading time!

I can still remember it now.. listening to the god awful screechin noise.. watching the time counter at the top right corner... just ten seconds left.. and my finger slips!!!

AAArrrrghh!
