Re: Thanks for the money but your stuffed.
Ouchy!
Maybe not the best point to make in a debate about essentially iot rubbish, but my point on UT stands.
It was a stand-alone game, yes you can play on line, but here in-sticks 23yrs ago, there was barely anything other than dial-up available.
yes lots of 3rd party servers are available, but one day how ever long it was ago, i thought.... hey i fancy a game of UT only to find that the official server had been turned off. yes, some googling later a alternative & a patch were found, but it did not say , on the packaging, the outside of the packaging, prior to purchase of a physical media game, that the internet was required or that it would turn off at some point and take all your achievements with it.
for the record, i still play UT, it works a treat on W10 even.
XP/ 7 - I was joking, sorry maybe should have used an icon.
Gotta go, time for a round of Quake ;)
