The music in Lemmings is a total earworm! 🎶 Who else spent hours just 'Nuking' them at the end of a level? 💣 Just dropped the Lemmings run on the P75! Check it:

Pure Build Engine carnage. Pitchforks, dynamite, and that legendary atmospheric horror.

☢️ DUKE NUKEM 3D
It’s time to chew bubblegum. High-speed DOS action on the rig it was built for.

Quick update, legends!

I have to push the Saturday Showdown back by 24 hours. The Pentium 133 is ready, but the human behind the keyboard needs a little more time to prep the ultimate 90s experience for you all.

NEW TIME:
🗓️ Sunday, April 5th
🕚 11:00 AM EST / 8:00 AM PST

The vote is still WIDE OPEN! Quake, Blood, Worms, or NFS SE? If you haven’t cast your vote in the previous post, go do it now! 🗳️

Sorry for the swap, but I promise the wait will be worth it. See you on the DOS prompt tomorrow! 🏁⌨️

🐛 WORMS
The ultimate tactical chaos. Simple graphics, but infinite fun. A true 1995 classic.

🚨 EMERGENCY UPDATE: WE BROKE THE SPEED BARRIER. >
I was prepping for the Weekend Showdown and accidentally jumped the multiplier on the P133 motherboard. We aren't running at 133MHz anymore... the LED is reading 999MHz.

The CPU fan has reached orbit and I think I can hear the hard drive screaming in C++, but The Need for Speed is running at 4,000 FPS.

Should I keep going or will I rip a hole in the space-time continuum back to 1996? 🌌⌨️

200MHz was a struggle... let’s see what 450MHz can do. 🚀
Last Sunday, we barely survived the Black Mesa Incident at 400x300. Tomorrow, the Pentium III 450MHz takes the stage. Will we finally hit a smooth 60FPS, or will the heat sink scream for mercy? HALF-LIFE
