peipunk Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) I am pretty sure it was Grade 7 for me when I played a VERY early D&D type dungeon game called Oubliette on my Commodore 64.....it took 45 minutes to load from the "Datasette". Ahhh the memories. Edited December 16, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irie Guy Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 This was my geek home rig back in the day. Spent hours fiddling with Extended Basic so I could get my Sprites to move properly. Then ventured into Assembly language. A fool I was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
