Go on, post your favorite ones.. I found this one out today
This is for DOOM 95, the Windows version of DOOM.
Yes it exists, no it's not different it just has a new interface.
OK, you really need a sloooow computer or slow LAN (both is best) to see this, because if you blink you'll miss it.
Right it's simple:
1. Start DOOM 95; select type of game: LAN
2. When you start, you need to connect to at least one other person or the computer will just sit there searching.
3. Once it's connected look in the BLACK window with GREEN text that appears.It lists some Credits, and tons of 'technical stuff' about sound drivers, loading, blah, blah, blah...
But at one point appears:
'Thanks Microsoft for f***ing it all up'
The first time I saw it I couldn't believe it! But it's really there. It took me about a quadrillion times before I could read the whole line because it lasts just a fraction of a second, it's kinda subliminal.
As I said it's difficult to reproduce, because you do need a slow PC (eg 33Mhz bus, P120, 16Meg RAM) which I don't have anymore.
Special Requirements:
Doom 95: ie Doom for Windows, LAN, Slow computer, a frien
