A walk through 1997

[Portada HL]

In this entry, we take a walk through a year that saw the release of the Pentium MMX, Windows 95 OSR 2.5, Winamp, Broken Sword 2, Need for Speed II, the first GTA installment, Quake II, and Age of Empires. We have not forgotten the Linux world of the time, with the installation of Debian 1.3.

What an excitement to see that Pentium MMX reviving the past as if it were today... Thank you for bringing us these entries!

Great thread. Beautiful. It reminded me of the time when I played those games and used similar hardware. I loved it.

Thanks for the comments. The truth is that 97 was a spectacular year in terms of games and I have only tried a few. I have left out Tomb Raider II, The Curse of Monkey Island, Abe Exodus, Carmageddon and others that I already tried with a 486 like Theme Hospital and Worms 2. What a harvest, my goodness!

@cobito Totally true, between 1997 and 1998 a series of titles came out that marked a before and after.
At least for me everything changed, and I still play most of those games periodically today, it's impossible to forget that fun.

¡Saludos!
