    1999 - Quake 3: Arena

    Remember folks, boards.ie started with one forum - Quake.

    The football forum is good reading. It starts just before the 2002 World Cup. Nearly every thread is about Roy Keane :pac:

    I wasn't aware her name had become a standardised unit of measurement already. Most scientists have to be dead for years before they get anything named after them.

    No surprise really. Back in those days posts were stored on magnetic cassette tape which had to be rewound back to the beginning if you want to enjoy it again.

    Kids today don't know how easy they have it with their instant access digital posts.
