Surprised mr man hasnt created a thread about this since he knows everything but,

the original inventor and pioneer and patent king of video games has passed away. Being this is a gaming community, I will take the 60 seconds out of my day to raise awareness and honor this man, who long long ago, started the chain of events that has led to the explosion of tech and investment in the gaming world. Without this man scribbling on his pad decades ago, q2 may have never existed.

Thank you good sir, rest in peace!!!



 :thankyou:


*by the way, a saluting emoticon would be nice, or a patriotic emoticon, couldnt find one in the list
Futhermore, you keep saying "occupation". It's not an occupation.
Denial is a crime against humanity!

Quake II is not 27 years old. I refuse to accept THAT much time has gone by.
