Holy crap.  I missed the boat on this one.

On The Office, last thursday they were playing Call of Duty at the Stamford branch.  I came into my office last friday and thought it would be fun to download a 1942 demo and see if it would run on my office computer.  The next step was to throw it on a memory chip and distribute it around the office.  It spread like wildfire.  Who knew I had so many closet gamers.  The game is a blast and I'm 28 years old and I've just had my first LAN 'party' at my office.  We've een playing for a couple of hours each day after work.

Yesterday, I spent my lunch hour running around to all the game stores buying up any and all copies of the complete collection that I could find.  With BF2 out and BF2142 on it's way, these things have been pretty hard to find. 

Does anyone else still play this?

One of the things I really like about the PC gaming is you can discover all these old games. PC = ultimate backwards compatibility.

Except it can be a little difficult and expensive to keep up. For example, my laptop can't really play BF2 :(
