I started PC gaming in 1993 with X-Wing and the original Doom shareware.

I use HowLongToBeat.com to track my gaming history.

I live in the Denver, CO area. I'm originally from the Seattle, WA area.

I support PCGamingWiki.com via Patreon (and then run an ad-blocker when viewing the site).

My current PC specs

Late 2022 was my most recent hardware updates

My first PC specs

  • CPU : Intel i486-DX2 (66 MHz, 32-bit)
  • GPU : 2D VGA, 640x480 (3d cards not available until the late 1990's)
  • RAM : 8 MB
  • Monitor : 14" CRT
  • Storage :
    • OS : 100 MB HDD

  • Cost: Around $2000 (including monitor), which is about $4000 adjusted for inflation to 2023.

Notes to self

"More, Purge Cache" at top-right of page usually fixes corrupted formatting after seemingly innocuous edits. Especially true for pages that use #cargo_query. I first encountered this on the page "List of games that support controller remapping" Thanks for the tip from Dandelion_Sprout (t c f) , via Discord

My Sandbox page.
