Listen "Did You Know Doom Could Do This? - This Week In Retro 112"
Episode Synopsis
We have another guest this week, Clint from LGR. He joins us to talk about how a specific version of Doom has been tweaked to provide a multi screen experience (you will need 4 PCs though!). We check out the Windows 95/98 emulator called PCem which should allow modern machines to accurately emulate old hardware, great for old school gaming. The Orpheus 2 soundcard has now gone on sale and we look at what it is capable of.
All of that and our Community Question Of The Week.
