CGQ Flashback Ep. 28 - Cruising the Information Superhighway at 1200 bps | CGQ+

First of all, it's crazy that we haven't talked about computer stuff on Flashback in a whole year. Well that's about to change, my friends. In this episode we talk about my getting a modem, dialing into BBSes, and all that goes along with that. We also discuss the Gravis PC GamePad, shareware games Captain Comic and Commander Keen, and the greatest BBS door game of all time, Tradewars 2002. Benj Edwards' article about the Gravis PC GamePad: https://www.howtogeek.com/672716/how-... Wildcat's Castle BBS (Where you can still play Tradewars!): http://bbs.wccastle.net/public/index-... Show Notes: I KNOW THE VIDEO IS BLURRY. I am using a new camera that I haven't put many man-hours on yet, and I'm still figuring out how everything works. Once the video was recorded, there was nothing that I could do aside from re-recording it. But these are supposed to be spontanoueus, unscripted, off-the-cuff talks, and if I re-record it, then it's going to feel fake to me. So just watch the episode on a smaller screen, sit farther back, or just listen to it like a podcast.
